Inspired by the beloved musical franchise Pitch Perfect, Bumper in Berlin reunited us with Adam DeVine’s character Bumper Allen. This series takes place several years after the events of Pitch Perfect and sees Bumper trying to revive his music career in Germany after one of his songs becomes a surprise hit in this country.

Bumper in Berlin reunited DeVine with his former Modern Family co-star Sarah Hyland, and it also starred Jameela Jamil, Lera Abova, Flula Borg, and Katharina Thalbach. The series initially premiered in November last year, and Peacock was quick to renew it after it scored the biggest comedy premiere in the streamer’s history.

Since this series was clearly a strong performer for Peacock, its cancelation is most likely caused by the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, which delayed its production, forcing it to miss its target release date. Several beloved shows experienced a similar fate, including Prime Video’s The Peripheral and A League of Their Own.

Susan Rovner, chairman of entertainment content for NBCUniversal Television and Streaming, said the network jumped on the opportunity to create this series with Elizabeth Banks, Max Handelman, and Paul Brooks as soon as it arose. She added they’re fortunate to have Devine lead this project and bring fans “the quirky, laugh-out-loud sensibility they loved in the film franchise”.

In addition to Devine, the Pitch Perfect franchise also starred Anna Kendrick, Skylar Astin, Rebel Wilson, Anna Camp, Brittany Snow, Hana Mae Lee, Hailee Steinfeld, and Alexis Knapp. It followed the adventures of Barden University’s all-girl a cappella group and became a commercial hit with over $600 million made across three movies.

Devine appeared in the first two Pitch Perfect movies and took on the role of Bumper Allen, the egotistical leader of the Treblemakers, the Barden Bellas’ all-male rival group. The TV reboot will see him try to revive his music career in Germany after one of his songs becomes big in Berlin.

Amy Gravitt, EVP of HBO Programming, announced the renewal in an official statement and praised the creative team behind this critically acclaimed project.

“Danny [McBride], Jody [Hill] and David [Gordon Green] are among our favorite collaborators and we’re thrilled that their take on a family comedy has been met with such enthusiasm. We cannot wait to share the next steps in the Gemstone family’s epic journey. Hallelujah!” said Gravitt.

According to its official logline, The Righteous Gemstones tells the story of the world-famous Gemstone televangelist family, which has a long tradition of deviance, greed, and charitable work.

The series was created by Danny McBride, who previously worked on another HBO comedy Eastbound & Down. He also plays the lead role and stars on this show alongside Adam DeVine, Dermot Mulroney, and John Goodman.
