Hannibal Burress, the comedian who currently plays well-to-do dentist Lincoln Rice on the critically acclaimed Broad City, just got his own show on Comedy Central. According to The Wrap, the new weekly half-hour series, titled Why? With Hannibal Burress, just got picked up for an eight-episode run that will air this July. The show will involve Burress addressing topical issues through standup, filmed segments, and on-camera interviews.

Burress' star has been on the rise in the past year, due in no small part to his role on Broad City and his well-received comedy special Hannibal Buress Live From Chicago, which aired last May. In addition, the comedian struck a chord last year after his comments against Bill Cosby prompted a torrent of sexual assault accusations against the Cosby Show star that continues to this day.
