‘Legends of Chamberlain Heights’ – upcoming Comedy Central show by ex-UCLA players aims to ‘change the game’

Even the most ardent college basketball fan probably has never heard of Josiah Johnson and Quinn Hawking, but it won’t be long before you’ll be regularly hearing those names for the next decade.

Johnson (pictured left) and Hawking (right), two former teammates on the UCLA basketball team, are about to blow up in a big way.

The ex-athletes recently had their TV pilot picked up by Comedy Central, which ordered 10 episodes of “Legends of Chamberlain Heights,” a show that is set to hit airwaves in 2016. Those working with the network are hoping it will fill a void that has been missing since “Chappelle’s Show” went off air in 2006.
