During the summer of 2019, Diallo Riddle and Bashir Salahuddin's two comedy series—South Side (Comedy Central) and Sherman's Showcase (IFC)—owned all summer '19. Both series found a way to present black life and entertainment without being cookie-cutter; there was a ton of innovation, quirkiness, and all-around hilarious AF situations. While South Side was more sitcom-y, Sherman's Showcase was a send-up of classic variety television programming, but also a device to get hella jokes off. After an impressive season, IFC is bringing Sherman and the gang back for a one-night "Black History Month Spectacular", airing Friday, June 19 on AMC and IFC.
