Episodes starring Matt LeBlanc will be back for a fifth season as just announced today by David Nevins, President of Showtime Networks Inc. Filming will take place on the new season in London in 2016, with LeBlanc, Stephen Mangan, and Tamsin Greig reprising their roles. The cast also includes Mircea Monroe, Kathleen Rose Perkins and John Pankow.

Episodes was created by David Crane and Jeffrey Klarik and has earned Emmy, Golden Globe, and Writers Guild award nominations for its cast and writers.

“We are so pleased to continue working with David Crane and Jeffrey Klarik, two of the sharpest creative minds in comedy, along with the incredibly talented cast, led by Matt LeBlanc,” said Nevins. “And now that viewers have even more ways to access SHOWTIME programming, I’m excited for a whole new audience to watch this smart, funny comedy gem.”

The Plot:

Last season, Matt faced a financial crisis and was forced to make some tough decisions, while Sean (Stephen Mangan) and Beverly (Tamsin Greig) were dragged back to L.A. to shoot more episodes of their disastrous sitcom Pucks! Meanwhile, their other project, The Opposite of Us, refuses to go away.
