The Ron White Show Coming To Comedy Central

Ron White has signed a deal with Comedy Central for his own show. Comedy Central has handed out a pilot presentation order to The Ron White Show, a half-hour program designed to showcase the blue-collar comedian’s opinionated persona. On the show, which will feature branded segments, remotes and story telling, White will look at stories nationwide, focusing on the heartland, through his everyman perspective.

White created the show with Eddie Feldmann. The two are executive producing with White’s manager, John MacDonald, and with Michael Pelmont, Brian Volkweiss and Barry Katz.

White’s most recent special, Behavioral Problems, drew 3.3 million viewers Sunday, ranking as Comedy Central’s most-watched stand-up special of the year. His other Comedy Central specials include You Can’t Fix Stupid and They Call Me Tater Salad. White, a member of the Blue Collar Comedy quartet, and Feldmann are repped by APA.
