HBO Max will become the exclusive home of the two critically acclaimed Comedy Central series. South Side and The Other Two's first seasons will move to HBO Max, and subsequent seasons will air exclusively on the WarnerMedia streaming service. HBO Max has also become the exclusive streaming home for Awkwafina Is Nora From Queen, though that show will still premiere new episodes on Comedy Central. The decision comes as Comedy Central moves away from live-action scripted shows to more topical shows and adult animation series like the revivals of Ren & Stimpy and Beavis and Butt-Head. "These ground-breaking and hilarious programs are cultural touchstones and we are excited about the diverse group of comedic voices they will bring to HBO Max. We know our audiences will want to watch again and again," said Michael Quigley, executive vice president of content acquisitions at WarnerMedia. "We are strategically thinking of the fans first, and adding these exceptional series to our portfolio allows us to introduce these standout comedies to new viewers on HBO Max."
