Netflix Orders Tom Segura Comedy Series; Surprise! S.W.A.T. Gets Uncanceled...Again

Netflix announces a new comedy series from Tom Segura. The series goes into production later this year and will premiere in 2025. The series is a 6-episode dark comedy that centers on Segura, who also serves as the show's Narrator, as he takes us through each episode in a series of vignettes. The twisted comedic sensibility of Tom's standup is the core DNA of this series, where every story will unfold in a hilariously disturbing way only he could imagine. Jeremy Konner will serve as head writer (Drunk History, Another Period, Waffles & Mochi). Netflix picked up the series based on a pilot Tom fully produced, that was written by Tom. Rami Hachach directed the pilot. Tom Segura and Ryan Hall will produce through YMH Studios.
Surprise! CBS announced that it has now renewed the hit drama series S.W.A.T. for the 2024-2025 season. The series will return for its eighth year on the Network.
