History

Comedy Central Latin America logo from 2012 to 2019

Before Comedy Central was launched in Latin America MTV and VH1 aired Comedy Central programming back in the 2000s to 2012, like South Park or Drawn Together.[2][3]

The channel was launched on 1 February 2012 by Viacom International Media Networks The Americas[4] and its website was launched on 11 November 2011, two months before the official start of the channel.[5]

On 26 February 2019, Comedy Central rebranded its logo and graphic package, adapting to the new redesign launched two months ago in the United States.[6]

Programming

In Latin America, Comedy Central has three different programming schedules for each of its two feeds, which are Panregional feed (Northern[7] and Southern feeds[8] merged on 26 March 2023)[9] and Brazil feed.[10]
