BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., July 14 /PRNewswire/ -- COMEDY CENTRAL's favorite son has returned home. Adam Carolla is back and this time he's taking on late night with the launch of "Too Late with Adam Carolla." The half-hour show will premiere on Monday, August 8 at 11:30 p.m.

Each show will include opening comments, an interview with a single guest, live phone calls from viewers and pre-taped interviews with Carolla and real people on the street.

Carolla's past collaborations with COMEDY CENTRAL include co-hosting the hit series "The Man Show," executive producing COMEDY CENTRAL Films' "Windy City Heat" and voicing "Birchum," a foul-mouth puppet featured on the successful series "Crank Yankers," which he also co-created and executive produced with Jackhole Industries.
