Hulu's Woke Returns for Season 2 on April 8; Tyler Perry Sitcoms Move to Wednesdays on BET

Here's a glimpse at the all-new season of Hulu's original comedy series Woke, starring Lamorne Morris (Keef), Blake Anderson (Gunther), T. Murph (Clovis), Sasheer Zamata (Ayana), and JB Smoove (Marker). Season 2 returns with 8 episodes, April 8 on Hulu. Cartoonist Keef Knight is now a popular activist on the rise, but he's facing a world where “woke” has become big business. Can Keef and his friends bring about real change, or is it just about the dollar$? And can Keef navigate this new world without destroying what he’s become? Inspired by the life and work of artist Keith Knight, “Woke” continues to upend Black nerd and activist culture, deftly satirizing with a wink and a smile. The series stars Lamorne Morris, Blake Anderson, T. Murph, Sasheer Zamata and JB Smoove.
