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.

ABC's Summer Fun & Games

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).
