Jeff Goldblum explored various facets of culture around the world with the Disney+ series The World According to Jeff Goldblum, and he’ll do it for another season. Disney has officially ordered a second season of the show from National Geographic ahead of the first season’s finale on January 24.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 14 Trailer

If you like getting new episodes of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, you’ll be happy to know that creator and co-star Rob McElhenney has no intention of stopping. Speaking at the Television Critics Association press tour in support of his upcoming Apple TV+ series Mythic Quest: Raven’s Banquet, the executive producer of the FXX comedy series said (via Deadline):

“It takes us about five months to make a season of Sunny. We have that period of our lives carved. We’re going to keep doing it forever if people keep watching.”

The show is coming off its 14th season last fall, and a 15th season is already on the way. On top of that, Deadline has word that FX is already talking to the gang about ordering even more seasons. Since the show has loyal fans who have been watching for nearly 15 years, we imagine they’ll keep watching as long as FX allows them to keep making new episodes.

Finally, HBO’s weed comedy series High Maintenance is returning for a fourth season in February, and the first trailer has arrived. Here’s the official synopsis for the new season:

With a new friend by his side, The Guy drops in on a variety of customers whose disparate lives, jobs, identities and circumstances reveal the human connection that we all seek. Playing out over the course of a year, this season focuses on cycles of renewal, webs of human connections, and putting down roots in the ever-changing ecosystem of New York City.
