Anthony Jeselnik is getting a new Comedy Central series. The stand-up comedian and “Jeselnik Offensive” alum will host what Comedy Central is calling a “comedic interview series,” titled “Good Talk With Anthony Jeselnik.”

The six-part series will premiere on Sept. 6 at 11/10c. David Spade, Kristen Schaal, Kumail Nanjiani, Natasha Leggero, Nick Kroll, and Tig Notaro are set as guests.

“Good Talk” is part of Jeselnik’s multiplatform development deal at Comedy Central.

Below is Comedy Central’s description.

In “Good Talk,” Jeselnik switches gears from his signature acerbic style for tongue-in-cheek interviews with his fellow comedians about their careers, influences and what it’s like to live in his massive shadow. Jeselnik and his guests center their extremely funny conversations around stand up, stories and bits and participate in unconventional studio segments.

Christie Smith and Meaghan Rady are executive producers of “Good Talk with Anthony Jeselnik,” with Rady also serving as showrunner. Anne Harris, Tara Schuster and Jackie Sosa are executives in charge of the series for Comedy Central.
