“This show pushes the envelope far enough to warrant a second season before season one even airs,” Alterman said in a statement.
“We are so lucky to be working with Comedy Central and their strong executive team,” Kuwahara added. “They’ve been nothing but supportive and getting a second season is like hitting a game-winning three-pointer!”
