NBC’s summer comedies both met very different fates. While Craig Robinson’s Mr. Robinson was cancelled, the network picked up The Carmichael Show for a second season.
Mr. Robinson was a long-gestating series that starred Robinson, who was well-known for his role on The Office. However, the six-episode show was burned through last month with two episodes airing each night. The final episode drew 3.4 million viewers and a 0.9 18-49 rating, notes TVLine.
The Carmichael Show, which stars comedian Jerrod Carmichael and David Alan Grier, also had two episodes air a night, but fared much better. The first episode drew 4.8 million viewers, making it the most-watched summer sitcom debut since 2007, and a 1.1 18-49 rating. Its final season one episode had 3.9 million viewers and a 0.9 rating.
Carmichael confirmed the good news about his show on Twitter.
It's official. Season 2 of The Carmichael Show.
