LOS ANGELES, June 22 (UPI) -- The U.S. cable television network Showtime says it has booked Margaret Cho and Kevin Nealon to star in stand-up comedy specials.

The programs will follow last week's debut of "Shaq and Cedric the Entertainer's All-Star Comedy Jam."

Cho's special is set to air July 3 and Nealon's is to be broadcast on an as-yet-undetermined night in September.

Showtime said this marks the first time the three performers' stand-up specials will have debuted on the network.
