TBS has renewed its freshman scripted comedies People Of Earth and Search Party for sophomore campaigns, the network said Tuesday.

People Of Earth, which is averaging 4.3 million viewers across all platforms, and Search Party, which aired all 10 of its episodes across the Thanksgiving week, will receive a 10-episode second season, according to network officials.

With the renewals, TBS will now return all six of its 2016 scripted comedies in 2017, said the network.

“Twelve months ago we set out to reimagine the TBS brand and its place in the TV landscape. To end 2016 with all six shows returning is humbling,” said Brett Weitz, executive vice president of original programming for TBS in a statement. "The amazing teams behind People of Earth and Search Party have created complex, funny characters and crafted truly distinctive stories. Renewing both shows is the perfect end to a transformative year for TBS."

TBS has greenlit a new comedy series The Guest Book as well as a new animated show Tarantula, the network said Sunday at the Television Critics Association summer tour session.

The Guest Book, created by Greg Garcia (My Name Is Earl), is an anthology series that centers on a small town vacation home and its visitors, said network officials.

The animated Tarantula, from creator Carson Mell (Silicon Valley) and Rough House Pictures, follows a respected but uncertified tattoo artist who delivers absurd yet introspective monologues, said the network.

In addition, TBS also announced a pilot order for a comedy show World's End, starring Hamish Linklater and Wanda Sykes, and executive produced by Ben Silverman. The pilot follows a charismatic high school English teacher who has a breakdown and is committed to a mental institution, but ends up spearheading an inmate revolt. 

TBS on Oct. 31 will debut new comedy series People of Earth, starring Wyatt Cenac (The Daily Show).

"Our new projects, from some of the best creators and producers in the industry, will fit perfectly with the new direction we've been taking the TBS brand," said Brett Weitz, executive vice president of programming for TBS. "Each show brings something fresh and unique to the comedy genre, from the unforgettable characters that Greg has created in The Guest Book to the wild, animated absurdities of Carson’s Tarantula. We also can't wait to see how the envelope-pushing audacity of our World's End pilot plays out on screen."

Pasadena, Calif.--TBS has greenlight a new comedy series from Conan O’Brien dubbed People Of Earth, the network said Thursday during its Television Critics Association press tour presentation.

The series, executively produced by Conan O’Brien, Greg Daniels and Jeff Ross, focuses on a skeptical journalist who investigates a support group to write about the member’s supposed alien encounters, but soon finds out there maybe some truth to their claims.

The 10-episosde series will be produced by Conan's Conaco LLC in association with Warner Horizon Television. The premiere date will be announced later, said the network.

"Having Greg Daniels executive-produce and direct a project for us at such an early stage in the network's evolution is huge. His keen ability to assemble a brilliant ensemble cast has obviously worked well in the past," said Brett Weitz, executive vice president of original programming for TBS. "Since the launch of Conan, which has been a brand beacon for TBS for more than five years, we've been searching for just the right sophisticated and funny scripted comedy series to develop with our partners at Conaco. I believe we found that in this wonderfully original script by David Jenkins."

In other TBS/Conan news, the comedian's special taping of his late night talk show from Qatar featuring First Lady Michelle Obama will air Jan. 25.

The special follows Conan and Obama during their recent trip to visit US Troops stationed at the All Udeid Air Base in Doha, Qatar, said network officials.
