The show also scored Emmy nominations for Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Casting, and Outstanding Writing.
Season 2 — known as Atlanta Robbin’ Season — earned the best ratings of any recent basic cable comedy.
All things considered, it’s not a huge shock that Atlanta scored a renewal order for Season 3.
The first season was a hit with viewers and critics alike, and Donald Glover won an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series and Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series after the first season.
