Peacock Renews Killing It for Season 2; Jack McBrayer's Kindness Show on Apple TV+
Peacock announced today the second season renewal of critically-acclaimed comedy series Killing It from co-showrunners / executive producers Dan Goor (Brooklyn Nine-Nine Co-Creator) and Luke Del Tredici (Brooklyn Nine-Nine Executive Producer). The series is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group. Craig Robinson (The Office, Brooklyn Nine-Nine) will return for all-new season, further expanding on Craig's quest to achieve the American dream. The series is a comedy about class, capitalism and one man's quest to achieve the American dream. And also about hunting really big snakes.
Apple TV+ is excited to share an all-new video of Jack McBrayer and children learning how to create a bird house just ahead of the original Hello, Jack! The Kindness Show special and four original shorts premiering globally on Friday, June 24. In the special, Jack and his friends will set out to solve a kindness mystery. Who's behind the random acts of kindness popping up all over town? The four shorts feature Jack interviewing real kids about their extraordinary acts of kindness, declaring them official Kindness Ambassadors in their own hometowns.
Hello, Jack! The Kindness Show is co-created and executive produced by Emmy Award nominee Jack McBrayer and Daytime Emmy Award winner Angela C. Santomero. The series, special and shorts are produced by Emmy Award-winning 9 Story Media Group with animation by its Oscar-nominated studio Brown Bag Films. Jax Media also produces. Wendy Harris and Vince Commisso serve as executive producers alongside showrunner and Emmy Award nominee, Guy Toubes. Tony Hernandez and John Skidmore executive produce for Jax Media. Junlei Li, the Saul Zaentz senior lecturer in Early Childhood Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, serves as the kindness and human connection expert on the series through Apple TV+’s changemakers initiative.
