BET Media Group announced today that the hit BET+ Original Series Churchy will return for its highly anticipated second season on August 21, with all 10 episodes available to stream at once. The breakout comedy made waves in its debut, becoming the most-watched scripted comedy on the platform during its premiere week.
In addition, BET has greenlit The Hospital, another original series from the creative mind of comedian Kevin “KevOnStage” Fredericks.
In Churchy, Fredericks will reprise his role as Pastor Corey Carr Jr., who inherits leadership of Bethlehem Temple, along with a surprise book of debts. He and his wildly unqualified church crew must navigate the daily headaches of ministry life, all while fending off a vengeful rival’s plan to replace the church with a trampoline park.
Returning Churchy series regulars include Mark Jp Hood, Lexi Allen, Anthony Elfonzia, Quin Walters, Tahir Moore, alongside new additions Jasmine Luv and Nic Few.

Exclusive: The BET+ Original series Churchy has cast Jasmine Luv in a recurring role for Season 2. Guest stars will include Kirk Franklin and Keith Lee among others.
Inspired by/drawing from/from the mind of standup comedian “KevOnStage” Fredericks, Corey Carr Jr.’s (Fredericks) life takes an unexpected turn when he’s bypassed for leadership of his father’s mega-church. Determined to prove his worth, Corey packs up his dreams and heads to middle-of-nowhere Lubbock, Texas, with lofty ambitions to build his own ministry from the ground up.
However, after quickly stumbling upon the realization that small-town church life is an entirely different ball game, Corey slowly accepts that the path to spiritual leadership might just be funnier and more profound than any sermon could ever teach.
Luv will portray ‘Breanna “Bree” Beverly,’ the warm and charming owner of a local diner who becomes a confidante – and potential love interest...

BET+ has given a Season 2 order to “Churchy,” the comedy series from standup comedian Kevin “KevOnStage” Fredericks and LeBron James’ SpringHill. The pickup comes as BET prepares to premiere the series on its linear cable network next Tuesday, Nov. 5 at 9 p.m. Et.
According to BET+, the series was the No. 1 scripted comedy series on the platform during its debut week (Feb. 15). “We congratulate the amazing writers, cast, crew, and our production partners for creating such an entertaining first season,” Jason Harvey, exec VP and head of BET+ said in a statement. “‘Churchy’ blends humor and heart around the center all of which resonated tremendously with viewers. We are excited to see where the second season will take us.”
The show is inspired by the comedy of Fredericks, who plays Corey Carr Jr., a character that finds himself at a crossroads when his father’s mega-church decides not to let him inherit its leadership.
