NEW YORK and ENGLEWOOD, Colo., March 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Insight Communications will offer free on demand previews of new episodes from the Starz Entertainment original comedies, "Head Case" and the new series "Party Down" to all of its Insight Digital 4.0 customers and visitors to its website at Insightcom.com beginning March 13th.

"Head Case" and "Party Down" early sneak previews precede the March 20th Starz primetime premiere at 10PM ET/PT and 10:30PM ET/PT respectively. Both high definition and standard definition versions of the new episodes of "Head Case" and "Party Down" will be available. "Head Case" and "Party Down" will remain a staple in the Starz On Demand subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) programming mix and will debut day-and-date on Starz On Demand with new episode premieres.

Ten new episodes of the acclaimed unscripted comedy series "Head Case," starring Alexandra Wentworth, return with an all-star lineup of celebrity guests, including Jerry Seinfeld, Playboy(TM) kingpin Hugh Hefner with "girlfriend" Bridget Marquardt, Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, SNL(TM) alum Kevin Nealon, "Survivor" host Jeff Probst, TV reality stars Tori Spelling and hubby Dean McDermott, superstar songstress Macy Gray, "CSI New York's" Melina Kanakaredes, WWE(R) star Dave Batista(TM) and many more.

"Party Down," a new 10-episode comedy series from creator Rob Thomas ("Veronica Mars," "Cupid"), follows a Los Angeles catering team - a sextet of Hollywood wannabes stuck working for tips while hoping for their "big break." "Party Down" stars Ken Marino ("Veronica Mars," Role Models), Adam Scott ("Tell Me You Love Me," Step Brothers), Jane Lynch (Role Models, The 40 Year Old Virgin), Martin Starr (Knocked Up, "Freaks and Geeks), Ryan Hansen ("Veronica Mars," Friday the 13th (2009)) and Lizzy Caplan ("True Blood," Cloverfield, Mean Girls).

Various "Head Case" and "Party Down" trailers and behind-the-scenes promotional material for the comedy series will also be made available on Insight's VOD platform and Insight.com.

"Providing these episodes on demand to our digital customers enables them to view new programming that they may not currently receive and it alerts existing subscribers a taste of the new season series," said Melani Griffith, senior vice president of programming for Insight. "It has been our experience that customers really enjoy these promotional opportunities."

"Starz is very pleased that Insight has chosen to make sneak previews of these entertaining original comedy series available for free previews online and on VOD," said Christine Carrier, Starz Entertainment senior vice president, affiliate sales and marketing.
