Corporate now has its return date. The workplace comedy series will return later this month with its third and final season. A trailer has been released for the final season.
Comedy Central revealed more about the return of the series in a press release.
“Comedy Central announced today that critically-acclaimed scripted series Corporate will premiere its third and final season of six episodes starting on Wednesday, July 22 at 10:30 p.m. ET/PT. For those stuck working from home and communicating by daily video conference calls, “Corporate” offers a return to the comfort and nostalgia of the grim and soul-crushing office life everyone has come to desperately miss during social distancing.
As previously announced, the much-anticipated final season will see Matt, Jake, Grace, and the rest of Hampton DeVille as they face the struggles of content creation, workplace conflicts, business trips, and finally learning to climb the corporate ladder.
“We know there’s absolutely nothing else going on in the world right now that could possibly need your attention,” said show creators Pat Bishop, Matt Ingebretson and Jake Weisman, “so we expect you all to tune in.”
Season two of Corporate, which holds a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, premiered in January 2019 to laudatory reviews. Led by stars Jake Weisman, Matt Ingebretson, Lance Reddick, Aparna Nancherla, Anne Dudek and Adam Lustick, the season featured star-studded guests Kyra Sedgwick, Elizabeth Perkins, Kristen Schaal, Sasheer Zamata, Baron Vaughn and Andy Richter. The first season, equally praised, was included in numerous “best of” lists from notable outlets including The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Washington Post, Entertainment Weekly, Esquire and TIME.”

What do you think? Are you a fan of the Corporate TV series? Are you sad to see it end?
The first season of this was truly original and touched on so many areas of corporate practice that we have all seen and lampooned them brilliantly.
Season 2 for the most part followed the trend but did run into a more slapstick approach that lessened the sarcastic, satirical elements that made it so compelling.
I look forward to the final season and I hope that all returns to the elements of season 1 that made it so brilliantly conceived to begin with.
