Black Monday | Entertainment News, Photos, and Videos

Showtime has made some changes to its schedule as a result of the current health crisis.

The network has announced that season two of Black Monday, which is currently airing, and season five of Billions will be interrupted mid-flow.

Black Monday will air through six episodes until April 12, at which point it will go on hiatus, returning with its last four episodes at an undetermined point later this year, Variety reports.

Likewise Billions is still on track to premiere their upcoming fifth season on May 3 and air seven episodes un-interrupted, before going off the air for an as yet undecided length of time.

In addition, Showtime has summoned up drama The Chi to help fill the void. The Chi‘s third season, originally scheduled to premiere July 5, has been moved up to June 21.

The entire season of Penny Dreadful: City Of Angels has been finished and will begin airing April 26 as scheduled.

One of Hollywood’s hottest new couples, Andrew Rannells and Tuc Watkins, will be starring in yet another project together!

The guys previously worked together in the Broadway play The Boys in the Band last year and they just wrapped production on the film version.

Now, Tuc is joining the cast of Andrew‘s Showtime series Black Monday for season two. Deadline reports that he has landed a “season-long guest-star arc.”

Tuc will be playing Congressman Harris, a Republican and leader of the Moral Majority.

The comedy series Black Monday has been renewed by Showtime for a second season.

The first season of the show – starring Don Cheadle, Andrew Rannells, and Regina Hall – finished airing in March.

Black Monday follows the worst stock market crash in Wall Street history. The show tells the story of how a group of outsiders took on the blue-blood, old-boys club of Wall Street and ended up crashing the world’s largest financial system, a Lamborghini limousine and the glass ceiling.

“Black Monday mines big comedy from the greed, the style, the music and the excess of the ’80s, but it’s also sneaky smart in its social commentary about that era — and indirectly, our current era as well,” Showtime Entertainment President Gary Levine said in a statement about the renewal. “We can’t wait to see what inspired depravity David and Jordan will cook up in season two.”
