NEW YORK, Sept. 17 (UPI) — The History channel has ordered 16 episodes of the half-hour series Join or Die with Craig Ferguson from Comedy Dynamics and Green Mountain West.
The former host of The Late Late Show will debate “provocative and timely topics, in his unorthodox and iconoclastic manner, with a panel of guests, which will include celebrities and history experts, as well as the American public through social media,” the cable television network said in a news release.
“Craig is incredibly knowledgeable, but also has a fun way of getting people engaged in history,” Paul Cabana, executive vice president and head of programming for History, said in a statement. “It’s clear this is his passion project and we’re looking forward to having him join the network.”
“I’m a huge fan of History and what they do,” added Ferguson. “I’m delighted to be on their schedule and promise that we will have a lot of fun, but we will also stick to the truth.”
No air date has been announced yet.
