Marty was the only Caucasian Comedian chosen for the show. The show taped in March 2009 and was originally slated to air sometime in late spring or early summer of 2009, but new information suggests that the show will be a part of B.E.T.'s January 2010 new line-up. Marty was featured as one of 30 stand-up comedians to perform and was also in 6 comedy sketches which will air as parts of other episodes.

Famous quotes containing the words main and/or stream:
“What is done for science must also be done for art: accepting undesirable side effects for the sake of the main goal, and moreover diminishing their importance by making this main goal more magnificent. For one should reform forward, not backward: social illnesses, revolutions, are evolutions inhibited by a conserving stupidity.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“Once you get into this great stream of history you can’t get out. You can drown. Or you can be pulled ashore by the tide. But it is awfully hard to get out when you are in the middle of the stream—if it is intended that you stay there.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)
