Miracle Workers Returns to TBS; ABC's Summer Fun & Games Lineup Renewed for 2020

TBS will premiere Miracle Workers: Dark Ages on Tuesday, January 28, 2020 at 10:30 PM. Created by Simon Rich and executive produced by Lorne Michaels, the second season of the anthology comedy series is a medieval story about friendship, family and trying not to be murdered. The first season of Miracle Workers, based on Rich's book, What in God's Name, ranks as 2019's #1 new cable comedy reaching more than 26 million viewers across linear, VOD, and digital platforms.
Miracle Workers: Dark Ages centers upon a group of medieval villagers trying to stay positive in an age of extreme income inequality, poor healthcare, and widespread ignorance. This 10-episode installment will feature Daniel Radcliffe, Steve Buscemi, Geraldine Viswanathan, Karan Soni, Jon Bass, and Lolly Adefope returning in new roles and facing new challenges.
Following a wildly successful run last summer that propelled ABC to rank No. 1 across all key adult demos, the network has announced the return of seven shows from its popular "Summer Fun & Games" lineup, including The $100,000 Pyramid (season five), Card Sharks (season two), Celebrity Family Feud (season six), Match Game (season five), "Press Your Luck" (season two), To Tell the Truth (season five), and as previously announced, the second season of Holey Moley. All of these shows will air in Summer 2020.
ABC ranked as the No. 1 network of the summer among Adults 18-49 (1.0/5 - tie with NBC), marking the first time the Net ranked No. 1 during the summer in 24 years - since summer 1995. In addition, ABC finished as the summer's No. 1 network with Adults 18-34 and among key female demos (W18-34/W18-49). Additionally, ABC claimed a network-leading 9 of the Top 20 entertainment broadcast series over the summer in Adults 18-49, including the summer's No. 1 show with The Bachelorette.
