The BBC has renewed comedy series "We Might Regret This" for two more seasons, providing new impetus for its producers’ hunt for a U.S. buyer.

From creators Kyla Harris and Lee Getty, "We Might Regret This" follows Freya (Kyla Harris), a woman in love who leaves her native Canada for London to be with her boyfriend, Abe (Darren Boyd), a straight-laced lawyer with whom she shares a loving relationship and an electric sexual connection.

Freya is a 30-something artist who is a tetraplegic, which means she is paralyzed below the neck and all four limbs are affected due to a spinal cord injury. She requires the assistance of a 24-hour PA, an intimate role she offers to her chaotic and impulsive best friend Jo (Elena Saurel).

“Season 1 was just the tip of the comedy iceberg and we’re beyond grateful to the BBC for their continued support and commitment to exploring disability, messy relationships and unparalleled intimacy on screen,” said Getty and Harris in a statement.

Jon Petrie, BBC Director of Comedy added: “We’re proud to commission more episodes of We Might Regret This. Kyla, Lee and the team have tapped into something truly unique — crafting comedy from deeply personal moments with such sharpness and heart. There’s still so much laughter to uncover in Freya’s world, and we can’t wait to see how they push the boundaries of comedy and character even further.”
