truTV Gets 2nd Season of Tacoma FD; I'm Sorry Gets Season 3 on truTV

Tacoma FD

Fresh off of its blazing-hot first season, WarnerMedia's truTV announced the second season order for Tacoma FD, the scripted comedy series from co-creators and stars Kevin Heffernan and Steve Lemme of the Super Troopers movie franchise. Tacoma FD launched as the #1 new cable comedy among young adults when it premiered earlier this year and finishes among cable's top 5 scripted comedies. The 13-episode second season order will go in to pre-production later this year and is slated for release in 2020.

Tacoma FD is a half-hour comedy set in a firehouse in one of America's rainiest cities. Light on blazes that need extinguishing, these firefighters keep themselves entertained with creative competitions, friendly first responder rivalries and no shortage of bizarre emergency calls. Chief Terry McConky (Heffernan) and Captain Eddie Penisi (Lemme) lead the firehouse shenanigans and are joined by an eclectic crew played by Eugene Cordero (Andy), Marcus Henderson (Granny), Gabriel Hogan (Ike) and Hassie Harrison (Lucy).


I'm Sorry

I'm sorry, but we are sticking with truTV for even more comedy news! WarnerMedia's truTV has announced the season three order for its unapologetically funny scripted comedy, I'm Sorry. From creator and star Andrea Savage (Veep, Episodes), I'm Sorry has broken through as a relatable, acclaimed series that has cultivated a passionate fanbase and defied industry trends by growing its audience and building momentum in its second season. The third season of the half-hour scripted comedy has been greenlit for 10 episodes and is slated to air on truTV in 2020.

I'm Sorry follows a confident comedy writer, wife and mom Andrea (played by Savage), who comically exposes her inner immaturity and neuroses through unexpected life situations. She is joined by her husband Mike (Tom Everett Scott), their inquisitive daughter Amelia (Olive Petrucci), and her divorced parents (Kathy Baker and Martin Mull), as well as a close circle of friends. In the series' first two seasons, I'm Sorry has explored hilariously absurd yet undoubtedly relatable situations that have resonated with fans across all platforms since its debut in 2017.
