BEVERLY HILLS , Calif., Aug. 27 (UPI) -- Starz says it has ordered a fourth season of the basketball-themed comedy Survivor's Remorse, starring Jessie T. Usher, RonReaco Lee, Tichina Arnold, Teyonah Parris and Erica Ash.

The show is from executive producers Mike O'Malley, Tom Werner, LeBron James and Maverick Carter for SpringHill Entertainment, Paul Wachter, Victor Levin and Hilton Smith.

"I'm incredibly proud of the team at Survivor's Remorse and what we've built," said James in a statement. "The show grew so much this year, attracting new fans and reaching new levels of popularity. I want to thank all the fans who've made Survivor's Remorse a success and the team at Starz for all of their support."

"We are thrilled to renew Survivor's Remorse for a fourth season," added Carmi Zlotnik, managing director of Starz. "Critics have consistently called it one of the smartest and funniest comedies on television and we are delighted to see audiences embracing the characters and the storyline with that same enthusiasm. Mike O'Malley and his tremendously talented team of writers and actors boldly tackle today's most pressing issues, from race, class, sex, and politics, to love and loss, but with such a deft touch that nothing ever feels heavy-handed. In the Calloways, O'Malley has created a modern family bound by heart and humor, who remain completely relatable despite dealing with the 'pro-money and pro-problems' that come with Cam's position as one of the top basketball stars in the nation."

Season 3 is currently airing on Sunday nights.
