                                <p><a href="https://www.nexttv.com/tag/tbs">TBS</a> has renewed late-night show <em>Full Frontal with Samantha Bee</em> for season six, which begins Jan. 13. Samantha Bee hosts and executive produces. </p><p><strong>“</strong>A trailblazing force in late night, <em>Full Frontal with Samantha Bee</em> has continued to use political satire to entertain, educate and empower viewers while keeping the government in check,” said TBS. “This year, Bee also blazed an actual trail from her NYC studio to her backyard, where she taped new episodes during the pandemic with help from her husband and fellow executive producer, Jason Jones.”</p><p>TBS also renewed its first look deal with Bee’s production company, Swimsuit Competition.  </p><p>“I’m so proud to have Sam part of the TBS family. After creating award-winning episodes from the dire elements of her backyard, I can’t wait to see what she does with some electricity and a roof over her head," said Brett Weitz, general manager of TNT, TBS and truTV.  “She is a champion for important causes and brings issues to light that inspire, entertain and educate.” </p><p>Bee was a correspondent on <em>The Daily Show with Jon Stewart</em> before starting <em>Full Frontal. </em>The weekly program reaches close to 3.5 million viewers per episode, according to TBS.  </p><p>“It’s a huge honor to get to keep doing this crazy, smart and silly show for a sixth season,” said Bee. “Is it official though? Are we still waiting for Pennsylvania to certify the sixth season?” </p><p>The series is executive produced by Bee, Jones, Tony Hernandez of Jax Media, Miles Kahn, Alison Camillo, and Pat King.</p>

Along with new episodes, expect more specials and a lot more blazers.”</p><p>The network has also renewed freshman unscripted series <em>Snoop Dogg Presents</em><em>The Joker’s Wild</em> and <em>Drop The Mic</em> for second seasons. The reboot of the classic game show <em>The Joker’s Wild, </em>as well as the musical face off series, will return this spring, network officials said.</p><p><em>Snoop Dogg Presents</em><em>The Joker’s Wild</em> and <em>Drop The Mic</em> averaged 2.5 million viewers across TBS’s linear VOD and digital platforms.</p><p>TBS also announced that it will premiere Tracy Morgan’s new series <em>The Last O.G.</em> on April 3. The series, executive produced by Morgan and Jordan Peele (<em>Key and Peele</em>) follows an ex-con shocked to see just how much the world has changed when he is released from prison for good behavior after a 15-year stint.</p>

Over the weekend he suggested <em>The New York Times</em> was Fake News, as he has CNN, and said it should either be remade or folded.</p><p>The dinner will be held at the Willard Hotel in Washington. The real correspondents' association dinner will be the same night uptown at the Hilton Hotel in Washington.</p><p>The event will air on TBS and the proceeds will go to the Committee to Protect Journalists, "whether they like it or not," says Bee, the host of <em>Full Frontal with Samantha Bee</em> on TBS.</p><p>"We're really doing this," Bee said in a TBS release. "This is not a joke."</p><p>Bee did aim a few jokes at the famously thin-skinned 45th president's harangues at the media. "The evening is sure to bring plenty of surprises, music, food, and laughter -- and if you're not careful you just might learn something. Specifically, you'll learn how screwed we'd be without a free press."</p><p>As recently as Monday, Trump echoed his aide Steve Bannon labeling the media his opponents, tweeting: "Where was all the outrage from Democrats and the opposition party (the media) when our jobs were fleeing our country?" He also said both the <em>Times</em> and <em>The Washington Post</em> were dishonest with dwindling readership and subscribership.</p><p>TBS was feeling their pain, and said the dinner would be an opportunity to "welcome journalists and non-irritating celebrities from around the world," adding: "We suspect some members of the press may find themselves unexpectedly free that night, and we want to feed them and give them hugs."</p>
