Kenya Barris’ comedy “#blackAF” has been renewed for Season 2 at Netflix, the streaming service announced Tuesday.

The series, which premiered April 17, stars Barris as a fictionalized version of himself, with “Parks and Recreation” alum Rashida Jones as his wife, Joya.

Loosely inspired by the “black-ish” creator’s “irreverent, highly flawed, unbelievably honest approach to parenting, relationships, race, and culture” the show “flips the script on what we’ve come to expect a family comedy series to be” and “uncovers the messy, unfiltered and often hilarious world of what it means to be a ‘new money’ black family trying to get it right in a modern world where ‘right’ is no longer a fixed concept.”
