LOS ANGELES – March 17, 2022 – The critically acclaimed late-night variety series ZIWE, starring and executive produced by Ziwe (DICKINSON, SUCCESSION, THE GREAT NORTH), will return to SHOWTIME for season two on Sunday, May 1 at 11 p.m. ET, for the season’s first installment of six episodes. ZIWE will return for a second installment of new episodes later this year. The inaugural season of ZIWE included interviews with Phoebe Bridgers, Fran Lebowitz, Andrew Yang, Eboni K. Williams, Gloria Steinem and Stacey Abrams, along with musical performances by Ziwe, sketches, and more – including unscripted and unpredictable interactions with everyday people.   Previously, Ziwe wrote for DESUS & MERO, OUR CARTOON PRESIDENT, and DICKINSON and rose to viral popularity with her ground-breaking and provocative Instagram Live series questioning cultural figures on race. She has also voiced Kamala Harris and other roles for OUR CARTOON PRESIDENT, as well as TOONING OUT THE NEWS, and appears in her own Pop Show, which she created and performs at Brooklyn’s Union Hall with original pop songs off her album Generation Ziwe. ZIWE is produced by A24 for SHOWTIME. In addition to Ziwe, Jamund Washington, Jo Firestone, and Hunter Speese serve as executive producers.   Showtime Networks Inc.
