ADDITIONAL NOTES:
renewed through the 2012-13 season (the show's third of 10 episodes - plus two specials) on 3/20/12
DESCRIPTION:
(from IFC's press release, March 2012) From the comedic duo of Fred Armisen (SNL) and Carrie Brownstein (Sleater-Kinney, Wild Flag), the critically acclaimed PORTLANDIA caught viewers by storm, infiltrating catchphrases into the cultural conversation such as "Put a Bird On It" and "We Can Pickle That." Hailed by Salon as the "smartest sketch comedy show on TV," the second season, which concluded on March 9, is IFC's most-watched series ever, delivering 13.5 million total viewers (P2+), marking a +150% increase over season one. Throughout the first two seasons of PORTLANDIA, viewers were introduced to a variety of eccentric characters, including Peter and Nance, an overly eco-conscious couple caught up in the organic and local food movement; Bryce and Lisa, an artsy, obsessive couple who find new trends to explore; and Toni and Candace, the formerly activist, self-involved shopkeepers of the feminist bookstore, "Women and Women First." The show continues to feature an eclectic roster of guest stars including Kyle MacLachlan's recurring character as Portland's trusty but misguided mayor, Jeff Goldblum, Penny Marshall, Tim Robbins, Andy Samberg, Eddie Vedder, and Kristin Wiig, to name a few. In addition to an all-new season, IFC is offering viewers, who just can't seem to get enough of PORTLANDIA, a one-hour special this summer, titled PORTLANDIA: THE BRUNCH SPECIAL, followed by a second half-hour special in time for the holidays later this year.
