Created by and starring Thede, A Black Lady Sketch Show pokes fun at modern life and pop culture while highlighting the talents of its Black female cast. Thede is joined by cast members Gabrielle Dennis, Ashley Nicole Black and Skye Townsend. (Dennis and Black have been cast members for all three seasons; Townsend joined as a featured player in Season 2 and was promoted to series regular for Season 3.)
“A Black Lady Sketch Show has created an indelible mark thanks to the trust and support of the incredible team at HBO,” Thede said in a statement. “We are ecstatic to be heading into a fourth season that means so much to our cast, crew, and the dedicated audience who so passionately loves our show.”
Debuting in 2019, A Black Lady Sketch Show returned for Season 3 in April. It has earned a total of seven Emmy nominations for its first two seasons, including a pair of nods for Outstanding Variety Sketch Series.

Yay! I ❤️ this show.
Fantastic news!
Looking forward to a new into!
I like the show, but a lot of the sketches are about hair. It’s a bit repetitive.
Season 3 was on the weaker side, but I still really enjoy the cast and their commentary.
I completely MISSED the return of this show. Was there any advertising?
I love to hear it!
ABLSS is one of the funniest, most relevant shows out there now. If it seems that a lot of the sketches are about hair it’s because hair means something important – the truer the topic the more truly funny the sketch! Love the show and adore the cast! 😍🥰😘
