Content streaming service Hulu has renewed its comedy series Casual for a third season, the company announced Wednesday (June 22).

The Lionsgate-produced series, which stars Tommy Dewey, Michaela Watkins and Tara Lynne Barr, will receive a 13-episode third season order. The series' sophomore campagin debuted earlier this month.

Casual is executive produced by Jason Reitman, Zander Lehmann, Helen Estabrook, and Liz Tigelaar.

In a separate deal, Hulu said it has signed Reitman to a first look deal for all television related projects, the first deal if its kind for the streaming service.

OTT streaming service Hulu has greenlit a second season of its comedy series Casual, weeks after the show's premiere on the service.

The series, which launched Oct. 7 and follows the story of a dysfunctional bachelor brother and his newly divorced sister raising a teenager, has been picked up for a second season with a 13-episode order, said the network. Casual creator and executive producer Zander Lehmann will return for the show's sophomore campaign along with executive producers Jason Reitman (Juno, Up in the Air), Helen Estabrook and Liz Tigelaar.

“Casual really struck a chord,” said Craig Erwich, senior vice president and Head of Content for Hulu. “We couldn’t be prouder of the quality, and we’re thrilled to see it be recognized for the success that it is.”

Hulu has tapped Up In The Air director Jason Reitman to produce a half-hour comedy series Casual, the OTT service said Thursday.

The series follows the story of a bachelor brother and his newly divorced sister living under roof and raising a teenager. Reitman will serve as executive producer and direct the premiere episode of the  series, which will debut on Hulu in 2015.

“Jason Reitman uniquely blends comedy and drama in a way that touches the human spirit,” said Craig Erwich, Senior Vice President and Head of Content for Hulu in a statement. “We are honored to work with him to bring the next distinctive voice, Zander Lehmann, to television.”
