HBO has renewed the critically-acclaimed comedy series Bored to Death. Production on the second season will begin in 2010. Bored to Death follows the misadventures of the fictional Jonathan Ames, a young Brooklyn writer who pursues his quixotic dream of emulating heroes from classic private detective novels. The show stars Jason Schwartzman as Ames; Ted Danson as George Christopher, a high-profile magazine editor and Jonathan’s needy boss; and Zach Galifianakis as comic book illustrator Ray Hueston, Jonathan’s confidant.
