Pete Davidson exits his semi-autobiographical comedy show Bupkis, even though the Peacock series had already been officially renewed for season 2.
Davidson will not gear up for Bupkis season 2 as originally planned, bringing an end to the Peacock series based loosely on the former SNL star’s own life. Check out Davidson’s explanation for his abrupt Bupkis exit below (via THR):
I’ve always seen Bupkis as a window into my life, since it is so personal and about my struggles and family. 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. I’m very excited for this next chapter and for you guys to see the work. Thank you to all who support me for I am forever grateful.
More to come…
