At 10:30pm ET, on March 12 Comedy Central will premiere a new show, Lewis Black's Root of All Evil. Set your TiVo's.
Here's a review of the pilot taping. "The Root of All Evil puts "pop culture on trial." Lewis Black plays the judge, and a rotating roster of guest comedians play lawyers prosecuting decency's greatest offenders. The first trial pitted "Chick Flicks" against "Video Games" as the root of all evil. Comedian Andrew Daly argued that chick flicks were the root of all evil. Paul F. Tompkins argued that video games were the root of all evil. The two presented their cases, which included videotaped segments, and took turns questioning each other as witnesses. In the end, Black came down with a verdict. Next up, Paris Hilton vs. Dick Cheney as the root of all evil. Patton Oswalt argued Dick Cheney's case. Greg Giraldo argued Paris Hilton's. You get the basic concept. "
