HBO Max today announced it has given the green light to The Other Two Season 3. The critically-acclaimed comedy series comes from MTV Entertainment Studios.
The ten-episode second season of The Other Two premiered on August 26th, with the season finale dropping yesterday on HBO Max. A premiere date for The Other Two Season 3 has not been announced.
The series is created, written and executive produced by former Saturday Night Live co-head writers Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider and stars Drew Tarver, Heléne Yorke, Case Walker, Ken Marino and Molly Shannon.
With their pop star brother, ChaseDreams (Walker), officially entering retirement at the ripe old age of fourteen, Brooke and Cary (Yorke and Tarver) must now contend with a new famous family member: their 53-year-old mother Pat (Shannon), and her eponymous daytime talk show. Humiliated at being The Other Two yet again, they double down and make it their mission not to be.
The season two recurring cast includes Brandon Scott Jones as Curtis, Gideon Glick as Jess, Josh Segarra as Lance, and Wanda Sykes as Shuli.
Guest stars include Ali Ahn, James Anderson, Justin Bartha, Jordana Brewster, Alessia Cara, Marcia DeBonis, Andrew Keenan-Bolger, Ryan Farrell, Jimmy Fowlie, Noah Galvin, Zosia Mamet, Debi Mazar, Derek Peth, Alison Rich, Tuc Watkins, Bowen Yang and Ian Ziering.
The Other Two has ranked among HBO Max’s most popular series since the release of season two and has seen steady growth each week as new episodes have been released.
Suzanna Makkos, EVP, Original Comedy and Adult Animation, HBO Max, said: “Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider have created a sharp and poignant family story that is willing to show its characters’ imperfections while making us laugh hysterically. It has been a true joy to welcome them and the cast to HBO Max, and I look forward to keeping them on hold with Brooke for the many conference calls to come next season.”
Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider, creators, writers and executive producers, added: “We are deeply sickened to see HBO Max throw their support behind a show with so many foot jokes, and absolutely thrilled that it’s ours. To everyone who watched, texted, posted, told their friends to watch — thank you!!!
“It has been overwhelming in the best way to see our show resonate with so many people, and we are incredibly grateful to HBO Max for giving us the opportunity to spend another season with this amazing cast and crew.”
The executive producers include Lorne Michaels and Andrew Singer and the co-executive producer is Hilary Marx.
The show is produced by Eddie Michaels, Toye Adegboro and Kaylani Esparza for Broadway Video; executive produced by Tony Hernandez for Jax Media; and executive produced by Ari Pearce and Samantha Schles for MTV Entertainment Studios.
