[via press release from IFC] IFC Partners with Joe's Pub at The Public for On-Air Short-Form Content
Network Adds a Bit of Downtown NYC to Its 'Slightly-Off' Saturday Night Programming
Every Saturday, IFC gives its viewers the best content creators' short-form comedy from the worlds of theater, animation and digital. Staring this Saturday, July 21, IFC taps Joe's Pub at The Public to bring their talented roster of regulars to air on IFC... thirty seconds at a time.
The partnership kicks off with "Words with Ike" exploring the wide, wise world of words with comic entertainer, Ikechukwu Ufomadu during the breaks of the network's airing of The Chronicles of Riddick starting at 8PM. "Words with Ike" returns to once again improve everyone's vocabulary on Saturday, August 11 during the 8PM showing of Twister. Additional extensions of IFC's partnership with Joe's Pub will be announced shortly. Joe's Pub joins IFC's eclectic list of 'Slightly Off' Saturday Night Programming partners including Funny Or Die (FODtv) and Cartuna.
