TBS announced Season 2 of 'Miracle Workers: Dark Ages', an anthology comedy television series, with the cast coming back as new characters in a different setting. Season 1 was a rendition of Simon Rich's novel ''What in God's Name' and told the story of Buscemi, a God who wanted to open a restaurant after being 'bored' with his creation. Daniel Radcliffe played a character that rallied 'heavenly bureaucrats' to show God that the planet is worth his time.

Release date

'Miracle Workers: Dark Ages' premieres on Tuesday, January 28, 2020.

Plot

Simon Rich, the creator, said, “I'm so grateful to have been given the opportunity to bring my novel, 'What in God's Name', to life in Season 1. And now that I’ve bled that sucker dry, I'm really excited to tell a brand-new story with the same group of brilliant actors.”

TBS release stated the 'Miracle Workers: Dark Ages' "will be a medieval story about friendship, family and trying not to be murdered." It will follow the lives of a group of villagers in the 'dark ages' as they navigate through the era 'of extreme income inequality, poor healthcare, and widespread ignorance.'
