Michael and Michael Have Issues coming to Comedy Central

Funny guys Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter from The State are set to star in their own show this summer on Comedy Central.

The besties have collaborated for over 20 years, and their new show, Michael and Michael Have Issues, focuses on all the problems they have had while working together on a fictitious sketch-comedy show. "Michael and I are thrilled to be on Comedy Central doing we what we do best - making doo-doo jokes," Showalter said recently on Black's website.

"I wanted to call the show 'Michael Showalter Sucks Starring Michael Ian Black,'" Black added.

Look out for seven episodes of the new series this July.
