Amy Schumer has become a big movie star, so it might explain why she wouldn’t want to do her show anymore. Even though Comedy Central renewed Inside Amy Schumer for a 5th season earlier this year.
Yesterday, while she was Tweeting about her friend and reported writer on her show, Kurt Metzger, who recently made some distasteful comments about rape victims, she Tweeted something that shocked her fans. She said, “I didn’t fire Kurt. He isn’t a writer for my show because we aren’t making the show anymore. There are no writers for it.”
Does that mean it is over permanently? Does that mean it is on hiatus indefinitely? We don’t know because she didn’t follow it up and Comedy Central hasn’t responded. Thus, we will just have to wait and see.
UPDATE: Amy Schumer took to Twitter to clarify her Tweet. She said, “#InsideAmySchumer is not cancelled. @ComedyCentral has provided us with a wonderful home and we couldn’t be happier there. I am just touring. Doing Standup and focusing on writing more for the next year at least. We are slated for a season 5 but not in the foreseeable future.
