The guys of The Exes haven’t had great luck with marriage but their show is doing okay. It’s just been renewed for a second season on TV Land.

Starring Donald Faison, Wayne Knight, David Alan Basche, Kelly Stables and Kristen Johnston, The Exes revolves around a trio of very different divorced men who live together in an apartment owned by their female divorce attorney.

The Exes TV series debuted in November to a 0.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 1.435 million total viewers. The numbers have dwindled in the past month or so but TV Land is still happy enough with the show’s performance to renew it for a second season.

Last night’s installment marked the season finale but viewers won’t have to wait long to see new installments. Season two will premiere sometime in June.

Here’s the press release from TV Land:
