The comedy series about an unconventional flat-share launched in July with 2.1 million viewers.
Written and performed by comedy trio Pappy’s, Badults is filmed in front of a live audience and follows late twenty-something’s Tom, Ben and Matthew living out a pact they made as kids; to live together when they’re all grown up.
Pappy’s commented: “We had so much fun making the first series of Badults so we’re delighted that the BBC have asked for more. We really love these characters and we’re looking forward to taking them on even sillier adventures. It’s quite different to a lot of other stuff on TV but the reaction from viewers has been fantastic. Clearly people still want a big, knockabout show full of stupid jokes. So that’s exactly what series two will be.”
BBC Commissioning Executive, Kristian Smith added: “I’m thrilled we will be returning next year with a second series of Badults on BBC Three. The distinct silly sense of fun that Ben, Matthew and Tom create is an absolute delight and with its larger sensibilities, it sits beautifully in our mix of comedy on BBC Three.”
