A sitcom was canceled by its network hours before it was supposed to air
Chad was cancele🐽d on the same day season 2 was meant to premiere

TBS sitcom Chad was canceled by the network on the same day as its season 2 pre𓂃miere.
The series follows a 14-year-old Persian-American boy named Chad (played by 40-year-old woman Nasi🍌m Pedrad, who was also the showrunner) struggling with the pressures of high school. After season 1 premiere▨d in April 2021, Chad was renewed for a second season the following month. Season 2 was supposed to air this July, but was pulled from the programming schedule mere hours before it was supposed to air.
. "We are proactively exploring various options to find the right home for it.""I recognize the landscape of our industry is changing so quickly. Did I expect my show to get caught in the crosshairs of a corporate restructuring and merger? No," P🐻edrad told the publication, referring to the TBS' merger with Warner Bros. Discovery and its subsequent move away from scripted TV shows.
"I've spent the last year making a season of television I'm really proud of. From the 🌌writers room to production through the edit, a team of very talented and dedicated people came togethe🌼r to tell a story we believe in. A hard comedy that portrays Middle Eastern characters from a place of empathy and humanity. I feel so lucky that Chad has an incredibly loyal fanbase. I know they’re going to love this season and I’m excited for the show to find a new home."
Pedrad is a forওmer Saturday Night Live regular and has also had roles in shows like New Girl and Scream Queens. Chad was a passion project that she had been working on for almost a decade.
