The CW Orders Second Season of Comedy; Mike Epps Heads to HGTV

The CW Network has ordered a second season of the critically acclaimed apocalyptic family comedy Everyone Else Burns. The first season of the series will premiere on The CW on Thursday, October 26 (9:30-10:00pm ET/PT). Everyone Else Burns follows the Lewises, a strictly religious family who believe the world will end within the decade. Patriarch David (Simon Bird, Friday Night Dinner, The Inbetweeners) longs for the church to promote him. Long-suffering Fiona (Kate O’Flynn, Landscapers) hungers for a life beyond sermons and squash. Aaron (Harry Connor) is a model young believer – except his drawings feature the rest of the family burning in hell. And anxious 17-year-old Rachel (Amy James-Kelly, Three Families, Military Wives) is about to fall for someone who could save her social life, but also damn her soul.
Actor, comedian, producer and real estate investor Mike Epps is an Indianapolis native on a mission to revitalize his childhood street in the HGTV series Buying Back the Block. Mike and his wife, television producer and design enthusiast Kyra Epps, who've already transformed an abandoned firehouse on the block into their stunning new family home, will continue improving the neighborhood and restoring a sense of community with more property renovations. In the two one-hour episodes, the duo will update each house, adding modern amenities and keeping the original charm, to create affordable and beautiful places for families to buy or rent. Driven by his passionate vision, Mike will be hands-on as he oversees the projects, including the overhaul of his grandmother's house, alongside his expert construction team.
Buying Back the Block premieres Wednesday, November 8, at 9 and 10am ET/PT on HGTV. It will be available to stream the same day and time on Max.
