"We are thrilled to renew Survivor's Remorse for a third season, " Carmi Zlotnik, the cable network's managing director, said in a statement Wednesday. "Since it began, the critics instantly embraced the show, and now we've seen its fans grow season over season. This all-star creative team, led expertly by Mike O'Malley, boldly tackles the most topical of issues with heart and humor as the Calloway family deals with 'pro-money and pro-problems' off the basketball court. We are very happy and proud to have them return to Starz for another season."

Season 2 of Survivor's Remorse debuted last month. The show follows the life of Cam Calloway [played by Jessie T. Usher,] "a hard-working, young basketball star who is thrust into the limelight after signing a huge contract with a pro basketball team in Atlanta."
