'Undateable' Guys Go on Tour

02.25.2014

"Undateable" is a new comedy coming to NBC about a group of friends going through a rut. In order to promote these guys and their stories leading up to the show's debut, NBC and Warner Bros. figured they'd first introduce them to everyone in person.

So throughout March, four of the stars of the show (who also happen to be standup comedians) will join executive producer Bill Lawrence on a multi-city standup comedy tour, spanning the U.S. Lawrence, who will serve as host, and stars Chris D'Elia, , and Rick Glassman will start in New York on March 2 and head across the country, ending the tour in on March 20 (full schedule below).

"Since it's so hard to launch a network comedy in this competitive landscape, we thought we would try a little grassroots marketing," said "Undateable" co-creator and executive producer Adam Sztykiel. "Plus, it will be exciting to see Bill travel around in a van."

The series, based on the book "Undateable: 311 Things Guys Do That Guarantee They Won't Be Dating or Having Sex," will premiere later this year on NBC. For a taste of what to come, check out some of D'Elia's standup below:
