It might seem eons ago that The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore was yanked off the air, but it was only less than a year ago, in the election year of all election years no less, that Wilmore’s run in replacing The Colbert Report came to an end.

Yet, Wilmore impression on the media landscape was too good to fade away for good. Bill Simmons’ Ringer podcast network has thus given Larry Wilmore a podcast where he’ll get to talk politics, entertainment, culture, sports, and beyond as well interview folks like Norman Lear, Bernie Sanders, and Neil deGrasse Tyson (i.e. kind of what he was doing at The Nightly Show).

Called “Black on the Air”, it gets released this Thursday, May 11th. Here’s Bill and Larry giving the official announcement.

Big time producer Brian Grazer revealed to Bill Simmons on The B.S. Report that we’ll be getting another visit from The Bluth Family. 

The announcement was almost in passing amidst talking about the success of Fox’s Empire, but Grazer did indeed announce to Simmons that 17 more episodes of Arrested Development are on the way. 

We’re not sure of a time table, but since there’s a re-edit of season 4 also coming as well as the prospect of getting the cast together again in any capacity, a veritable season 5 might be far off.
