After a five-year hiatus, Inside Amy Schumer is heading back to television, by way of a revival at the Paramount+ streaming service.
During its four seasons on the air, Inside Amy Schumer was nominated for 12 Primetime Emmys, ultimately winning three for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics (2015), Outstanding Variety Sketch Series (2015) and Outstanding Directing for a Variety Series (2016).
Amy Schumer’s acclaimed sketch series will return for five specials at the streamer, ViacomCBS announced Wednesday during its presentation to investors.
In addition to Inside Amy Schumer, Paramount+ has greenlit the six-episode Weekly Show With Trevor Noah, a Daily Show offshoot that will find Noah “looking at stories across the societal landscape” and talking with “the people behind the headlines,” per the show’s official description.
