Im sorry tv show series#
Ī third series of five episodes was filmed at the Riverside Studios in Hammersmith in June 2022, to be broadcast in October of the same year. In June 2021, ITV announced that it had renewed the series for another five episodes, which aired the same October. He said that the crew would "love to have the opportunity" to be renewed for a second series and that the programme "wasn't made just for October". Akingbola said that he hoped to see "non-tokenised shows throughout the year" in future. He criticized the pigeonholing of the programme as a "black show", aiming to disprove that "that black content does not appeal to mainstream audiences". Akingbola said that he did not think audiences had changed substantially since the pilot in 2016, only that "the need to serve them properly has increased exponentially" as the Black Lives Matter movement brought "a spotlight to the lack of inclusion". The show's commissioning followed a resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement after the May 2020 murder of George Floyd. It was Triforce Productions's first primetime programme and the first directing credit for Jan Genesis. ITV additionally ran documentaries and other programmes relating to Black History Month, and a series of "It's all about" idents made by Black artists.
The others were Alison Hammond: Back To School, Craig & Danny: Funny, Black and on TV and IRL with Team Charlene. The show was one of four shows commissioned for ITV as part of the 2020 Black History Month, celebrated in October in the United Kingdom. In July 2020, he told Radio Times that the rejections were sometimes without comment and sometimes described the show as "a bit niche". In May 2020, Akingbola commented on Twitter that the show had been rejected by ITV, the BBC, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Sky UK and that the production company was now looking to get the show commissioned in the United States. The pilot aired on ITV2 on 3 November 2016 at 8:30 p.m. In October 2016, it was announced that ITV commissioned a pilot, along with three other programmes featuring BAME comedians, to be aired in the run-up to the November 2016 MOBO Awards, which recognise excellence in black music. The programme is produced by Triforce Productions, which Akingbola and Fraser Ayres co-founded. Akingbola found presenting to be "fun and yet surreal"-his previous background was in acting. The presenter Jimmy Akingbola served as producer. The series was created by Fraser Ayres and Minnie Ayres. Different round structures were used in the 2016 pilot.Īkingbola commented that the show inverts the norm of comedy panel shows which have white men as team captains and women or BAME people as "token" panelists. In the final round, "General 'Tupidness", panelists buzz in to answer trivia questions about Black figures. Rounds variously show panelists attempting to finish a famous quote, work out the name of a Black person from yes/no questions, identify whether a fact presented by the other team is true or false, work out who invented particular technologies and when or match descriptions of people to their faces. The host Jimmy Akingbola asks two teams questions relating to Black history. A third series premiered on 2 October 2022, with Akingbola, Akudolu, and new team captain Eddie Kadi.
A second series of five episodes began in October 2021. The programme is hosted by Jimmy Akingbola and has team captains Chizzy Akudolu and Judi Love. A pilot aired on ITV2 in 2016 and the first series of four episodes aired in October 2020, as part of Black History Month. “I am so, so thrilled to have another season to prove wrong the theory that just because you are a mom, you are not allowed to find buttholes funny,” Savage said in a press release announcing the season-three renewal, tagging her quote with the hashtag “#godswork.Sorry, I Didn't Know is a British panel show broadcast on ITV, in which panelists answer questions about Black history. The show stars Savage as a comedy writer and mom who freely owns what TruTV calls “her inner immaturity and neuroses, with Tom Everett Scott as her husband and Hollywood icons Kathy Baker and Martin Mull as her parents. And with WarnerMedia about to get into the streaming wars next year, Sorry may be exactly the type of cult comedy that could find a wider audience via a nonlinear platform. While its overall audience is relatively modest - linear broadcasts average around a half-million viewers within three days of premiering, on par with shows like Schitt’s Creek - TruTV says Sorry grew its audience during its second season this past winter. The WarnerMedia–owned network said Tuesday it was ordering ten more half-hour episodes of the show, with the new installments scheduled to air next year. Andrea Savage’s TruTV scripted comedy I’m Sorry is coming back for a third season.
