Roy Wood Jr.: No One Loves You is Wood’s second one-hour stand-up special for Comedy Central, performed live from Chicago’s Vic Theatre. Following the success of his first special, Roy Wood Jr.: Father Figure, the Daily Show correspondent and host of Comedy Central’s storytelling show This is Not Happening hilariously explores some of today’s most complicated issues. From the plight of the black superhero and national anthem protests to the many failed strategies men have used to avoid #MeToo allegations, Wood covers it all.

Wood, Bob Bain, Norman Aladjem, and Derek Van Pelt are Executive Producers. Anne Harris and Chloe Ifshin are the Executives in Charge of Production for Comedy Central.

Roy Wood Jr’s comedy has entertained millions across stage, television and radio.

Also in 2017, his first Comedy Central one-hour stand-up special Roy Wood Jr.: Father Figure premiered along with an extended, uncensored album of the same name, released by Comedy Central Records.
