Pop TV has renewed "Schitt’s Creek", its flagship original comedy series created by and starring Eugene Levy and Daniel Levy, for a fifth season. The network has ordered 14 episodes, up from the usual 13, for a winter 2019 return.

The news comes during the run of Season 4, which Pop says is up double digits in viewers and young adults compared with Season 3. The season finale is set for April 11.




“It is rare to find a television series that continues to deliver fanfare, critical acclaim and audience growth season after season,” Pop president Brad Schwartz said in announcing the renewal.

“This gem of a show and its amazing ensemble cast, including the brilliant Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara, bring Emmy-worthy performances to the screen that are both comedic and heart-warming. We couldn’t be more proud of how the show continues to find new viewers and creatively flourish into one of the finest series on television.”
