Prepare to see Patrick Stewart as you've never seen him before.

Starz on Friday released a first-look trailer for its upcoming Stewart-fronted comedy series Blunt Talk.

The half-hour scripted comedy was created by Bored to Death's Jonathan Ames and counts Seth MacFarlane as an executive producer. The show, which was picked up straight to series for two seasons and 20 episodes, revolves around Walter Blunt (Stewart), a British transplant intent on conquering the world of American cable news. The series follows the fallout from Blunt's well-intentioned, but mostly misguided decision-making, both on and off the air.
