Press Release
*CBS ALL ACCESS** RENEWS “NO ACTIVITY” FOR A SECOND SEASON*
Feb. 13, 2018 – *CBS All Access*, CBS’ digital subscription video on-demand and live streaming service, today announced the second season renewal of its first original comedy series, NO ACTIVITY.
“As *CBS All Access*’ first original comedy series, NO ACTIVITY flipped conventional storytelling on its head by showcasing some of the world’s best comedic talent as they hilariously explored the mundane lives of every day cops and criminals,” said Julie McNamara, Executive Vice President, Original Content for *CBS All Access*. “While the first season pushed boundaries and broke rules, we are confident that Trent O’Donnell and Patrick Brammall, along with their partners at Funny Or Die and Gary Sanchez Productions, have just scratched the surface and will deliver a new season that continues to elevate this as a truly one-of-a-kind series.”
The eight-episode first season of NO ACTIVITY is currently available to stream on *CBS All Access*.
NO ACTIVITY is a comedy series from executive producers Will Ferrell and Adam McKay. In what should be a high-stakes sting operation, NO ACTIVITY celebrates the mundane. Set against the world of a major drug cartel bust, the series follows two low-level cops who have spent far too much time in a car together; two criminals who are largely kept in the dark; two dispatch workers who haven’t really clicked; and two Mexican tunnelers who are in way too small a space considering they’ve only just met.
The cast of NO ACTIVITY’s first season stars co-developer Patrick Brammall and Tim Meadows, along with guest stars Mark Berry, Arturo Castro, Mackenzie Davis, Bridget Everett, Will Ferrell, Darren Gilshenan, Travis Guba, Jake Johnson, Sunita Mani, Jason Mantzoukas, Adrian Martinez, Jesse Plemons, Fred Pohl, Alex Rodriguez, Amy Sedaris, J.K. Simmons, Courtenay Taylor, Michaela Watkins and Daniel Zolghadri.
NO ACTIVITY is produced by CBS Television Studios in association with Funny Or Die, Jungle and Gary Sanchez Productions, and is based on the Australian series produced by Jungle and broadcast by Stan. The series is co-developed and executive produced by Trent O’Donnell and Patrick Brammall, alongside executive producers Will Ferrell, Adam McKay, Jason Burrows and Joe Farrell. Trent O’Donnell directed all episodes.
In addition to NO ACTIVITY, *CBS All Access*’ growing slate of original series currently includes STAR TREK: DISCOVERY and THE GOOD FIGHT, returning with season two on Sunday, March 4. *CBS All Access*’ original series library will continue to expand with the previously announced $1, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, STRANGE ANGEL, TELL ME A STORY and additional programming to be announced.
