New Comedy Central Series "South Side" Created By and For Chicagoans

Brought to life by local Chicagoans both in front of and behind the camera, Comedy Central's new series "South Side" gives viewers an authentic portrayal of what life in the city is all about. Set in Englewood, the show follows two friends who just graduated community college ... so now they're ready to take over the world! Until then, they're stuck at Rent-T-Own, a retail-rental crossroads where the vast ensemble of characters come together.

Joining Jill in studio are the show's co-creators and writers Bashir Salahuddin & Diallo Riddle as well as the show's lead actors Sultan Salahuddin and Chandra Russell to talk about the purpose & impact of this Chicago centered comedy.

"South Side" airs on Comedy Central July 24th, 2019. More info can be found here: www.cc.com/shows/southside
