Pete Davidson Pulls the Plug on ‘Bupkis’ Season 2 Despite Renewal

“Bupkis” will not return for Season 2 after all despite Peacock renewing the Pete Davidson comedy series for a second season, but this is not a case of a streamer reversing its decision. Instead, it was Davidson who chose to pull the plug on the autobiographical series.

“I’ve always seen ‘Bupkis’ as a window into my life, since it is so personal and about my struggles and family,” Davidson said in a statement before noting that this chapter of his life has closed.

“After nearly a decade of my personal life being in the media I wanted a chance to tell my story my way. Of all the work I’ve ever done, ‘Bupkis’ is by far what I’m most proud of. I am so grateful to Lorne Michaels and Broadway Video, Peacock, Universal Television and the amazing cast and writers for helping me create something honest, funny and heartfelt. I do also feel that this part of my life is finished.”

The “SNL” alum added that he’s excited for this “next chapter” and for fans to “see the work.”
