Who Says Getting Older Makes a Person Wiser? The World Television Premiere
Stand-Up Special 'Bill Engvall: Aged and Confused' Premieres Sunday, November
22 at 9:00 p.m.


NEW YORK, Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- COMEDY CENTRAL is about to learn about all
the things that drive Bill Engvall crazy!  Filmed in front of a packed house
at the Vic Theater in Chicago, the World Television Premiere of "Bill Engvall:
Aged and Confused," debuts Sunday, November 22 at 9:00 p.m.

Known for his humorous musings on everyday life, COMEDY CENTRAL has the
popular Blue Collar comedian bringing his highly relatable comedy to the
stage.  Bill Engvall doesn't need drugs to induce a bewildered haze - it comes
naturally with age!  Now an empty-nester, Engvall moves away from discussing
family life and what it's like raising kids to discussing all the little
everyday things that drive him nuts in this brand-new, one-hour stand-up
special debuting Sunday, November 22 on COMEDY CENTRAL.

Engvall's remarkable ability to connect with audiences has garnered him an
American Comedy Award® and success across the board.  Currently the host of
CMT's "Country Home Fried Videos," Engvall's previous television credits
include starring in and executive producing TBS' "The Bill Engvall Show," the
WB hit "Blue Collar TV," "Mobile Home Disasters" and "The Jeff Foxworthy
Show."  His film credits include "Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Movie," "Blue
Collar Comedy Tour Rides Again," "Blue Collar Comedy Tour - One For The Road,"
the soundtrack of which was nominated for a Grammy® Award, "Bait Shop" and
"Delta Farce."  Along with his Blue Collar movies, Engvall also has two solo
specials that have previously aired on COMEDY CENTRAL, "15 Degrees  Off Cool"
and "Here's Your Sign, Live."  Engvall has even managed to become a platinum
recording artist with his first album, "Here's Your Sign," and his second CD,
"Dorkfish," has already been certified gold on the Billboard Comedy Chart.  As
if he weren't busy enough, Engvall has found time to write several books,
including his autobiography, Bill Engvall - Just A Guy.
