Comedy Central has renewed Another Period for a second season

Alert the butlers, it’s time to crack open another bottle of cocaine wine as the Bellacourts have reason to celebrate! Comedy Central has renewed the turn-of-the-century historical and satirical scripted series “Another Period” for a second season, it was announced today by Kent Alterman, President, Original Programming, Comedy Central. Executive produced by co-stars Natasha Leggero and Riki Lindhome, director Jeremy Konner and Red Hour’s Ben Stiller, Debbie Liebling, Stuart Cornfeld and Mike Rosenstein, the second season of “Another Period” will premiere ten episodes in 2016.

“Another Period is a beautiful reflection of a great American truth: the more things change, the more they stay the same,” said Alterman.

“We are thrilled that Comedy Central has such good taste,” added Leggero and Lindhome.

Currently airing new episodes on Tuesday nights at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT, full episodes from the first season of “Another Period” have been seen by over 9 million total viewers with an additional 4.6 million multiplatform clip views.

However, the Bellacourts’ servants have to do a lot more than hold umbrellas. “Another Period” centers on the Bellacourt sisters, Lillian (Leggero) and Beatrice (Lindhome), who only care about being rich and becoming super famous (which is a lot harder in 1902).
