School is back in session with South Park’s Season 16 return. And back with his take on the most viral of viral web video, Daniel Tosh’s Tosh.0 returns for a fourth season. Plus, election season wouldn’t be the same without The Daily Show With Jon Stewart and The Colbert Report’s take on the candidates with “Indecision 2012.”

Comedy Central also premieres its new sketch comedy show starring funny guys, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele – Key & Peele. And January is “Stand-Up Month” on the network with the debuts of new specials featuring Tom Papa, Kevin Hart, JB Smoove, and John Mulaney. The network is also planning a special tribute to Bernie Mac.
