TBS has pulled the second season of Nasim Pedrad’s “Chad” yesterday, mere hours before its planned season premiere.
“Chad” follows an Iranian-American teenage boy (played by Pedrad, a 40-year-old woman) through high school. Jake Ryan, Paul Chahidi, Saba Homayoon, Ella Mika, Alexa Loo, Thomas Barbusca and Sara Malal Rowe also star.
According to a spokesperson, TBS is now looking for ‘the right home’ for the series. As a full season was seemingly planned to air, it’s clear much or all of the second seaosn has been shot and produced.
The abrupt removal continues the demise of scripted content at TBS and TNT. In April, Warner Bros. Discovery halted development of all new scripted projects.
