Set List: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Set List (Stand-Up Without a Net) challenges some of the biggest names in comedy to a gig like no other, full of weird concepts and challenging juxtapositions. Each show will see three comics take to the stage to be presented with an unseen set list of wildly unpredictable and imaginative key phrases, crafted by fellow comedians Paul Provenza and Troy Conrad. From these they must create spontaneous, original stand-up sets under pressure and in front of a live audience. In addition to the comedians improvised routines, you'll also get to see exclusive footage from both backstage and the green room. This backstage footage will intercut the main onstage performances and provide revelatory moments where we watch our comedians squirm, congratulate each other, discuss each others routines and comment on the extreme jeopardy of the format.
