The Jason Jones-Samantha Bee empire is staying put at TBS. TBS announced Tuesday morning that it is giving The Detour, the family comedy created by the duo and starring Jones alongside Natalie Zea, a third season. (The second ends its run tonight.) “Season Two has been so smart, hilarious and wrong. And from the early nuggets I’ve gotten from Jason and Sam, Season Three is going to be even more effed up,” Senior Vice President Of Original Programming Thom Hinkle said in a statement. The A.V. Club, in our review upon its debut, declared that the show ”is undeniably funny, often in the way that the earliest Adam Sandler movies are funny. Stupid? Yes, but who cares. People are laughing.”
