Amy Schumer’s acclaimed sketch series is finally returning. “Inside Amy Schumer” Season 5 will debut Oct. 20 on Paramount+.
The fifth installment of the Emmy-winning series will consist of five comedy specials, two of which will be available on premiere day. The other three will be released weekly.
In a letter to fans on Tuesday, Schumer joked that viewers should be prepared, because Season 5 will be “not as good as Season 3. But close.” According to the comedian, she’s “not holding anything back” in these five specials.
“Inside Amy Schumer” originally aired for four seasons on Comedy Central from 2013 to 2016. ViacomCBS announced last year that the sketch series would be revived at Paramount+ by way of these five specials.
The series was known for tackling a range of topics, from sexual assault to getting old in Hollywood to gender identity and more. There were certainly some outrageous moments, like the time Schumer stumbled upon a picnic with Tina Fey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Patricia’s Arquette, where the women were celebrating Louis-Dreyfus’ “last day of f—ability.”
“Inside Amy Schumer is produced by Paramount+ and MTV Entertainment Studios.
