Despite what seem to be decidedly tepid reviews, and after airing only 3 of its 8 episodes to date, in a press release today HBO announced it has renewed Bored to Death for a second season. (We watched the pilot episode online several weeks ago, but sometimes series start slow and get better. The pilot is no longer available online, but is available On Demand.)
Created by author Jonathan Ames, Bored to Death follows the misadventures of a fictional Jonathan Ames, a young Brooklyn writer who pursues his quixotic dream of emulating heroes from classic private detective novels. The show stars Jason Schwartzman as Ames; Ted Danson as George Christopher, a high-profile magazine editor and Jonathan’s needy boss; and Zach Galifianakis as comic book illustrator Ray Hueston, Jonathan’s confidant.
Bored to Death airs Sundays at 9:30 PM on HBO. More information about the series can be found on the HBO: Bored to Death website; and the trailer can be seen below:
