Seeso, the ad-free streaming comedy channel, today announced the renewal of three Original Series: travel parody show "HIDDEN AMERICA WITH JONAH RAY"; animated sketch series "THE CYANIDE & HAPPINESS SHOW," based on the popular web comic; and "BIG JAY OAKERSON'S WHAT'S YOUR F@%KING DEAL?!" These renewals are in addition to the already announced second seasons of "BAJILLION DOLLAR PROPERTIE$" and "THE UCB SHOW."

Seeso has greenlit a second season of the Bourdain-esque fictional travel show, "HIDDEN AMERICA WITH JONAH RAY," featuring comedian Jonah Ray traveling to major US cities, with some of the biggest names in comedy. The first season featured David Koechner, Randall Park, "Weird Al" Yankovic, Laraine Newman, Baron Vaughn, Arden Myrin and more.

'THE CYANIDE & HAPPINESS SHOW' also will return for another season. Deceptively simple stick-figures populate an inappropriate world with profane, and profound, sensibilities all their own. It's animated sketch comedy at its best.

Additionally, "BIG JAY OAKERSON'S WHAT'S YOUR F@%KING DEAL?!" will return for a second season with unmatched improv and crowdwork, with someone of the biggest names in comedy. Season one featured guest appearances by HANNIBAL Buress, Bonnie McFarlane, Colin Quinn, Andy Kindler, and Kurt Metzger, among many others.

Hidden America with Jonah Ray (8x30)
A fake travel show where the places are real but the people aren't. Starring Jonah Ray. Executive Produced by Ray, Troy Miller, Alex Murray, Todd Sellers and produced by Dakota Pictures.

The Cyanide & Happiness Show (10x15)
From the upsettingly ingenious minds of Kris Wilson, Rob DenBleyker, and Dave McElfatrick comes the animated sketch series based on their wildly popular web-comic. Step into a world where God takes hostages; spring breakers are locked in a life-and-death struggle against a mighty Dicksquid; and a true patriot, the Star Spangled Bastard, solves both immigration and gun control! Animation so OUTRAGEOUS it will inappropriately touch your funny bone. Created and Executive Produced by Rob DenBleyker, Kris Wilson and Dave McElfatrick of Explosm Entertainment, and Executive Produced by Studio71.

Big Jay Oakerson's What's Your F@%ing Deal?! (10x30)
Let go of pretension and leave your ego at the door as Big Jay Oakerson leads a pack of comics in a completely improvised show based on interactions with the crowd. Starring Big Jay Oakerson and Executive Produced by Oakerson, Cris Italia, David Kimowitz, Frank Mosca, Lou Wallach and produced by Angry Buddha Films.
