Comedy Central cancels Another Period
Dismaying fans of trashy reality shows and historical intrigue alike, co-creator Natasha Leggero announced tonight that Comedy Central has decided not to pick up a fourth season of Another Period. The series—which was co-created by Riki Lindhome, who, with Leggero, played a pair of psychotically selfish sisters conniving for attention and cash—was one of the quiet, consistent delights of the network’s schedule, starting with a high-concept premise (“What if Keeping Up With The Kardashians was set in Downton Abbey?”) and then expanding it into a universe of bizarre characters and historical in-jokes.
