HBO is doubling down on the hilarity this winter as 2 Dope Queens – featuring Jessica Williams and Phoebe Robinson – is set to return for a second series of shows.

On Friday, Feb. 8 at 11 p.m. ET/PT, the first of four themed hour-long specials will debut exclusively on HBO and its streaming platforms. Three additional specials will follow at the same time on subsequent Fridays. Daniel Radcliffe, Janet Mock, Lizzo and Keegan-Michael Key are among the guests slated to appear on the upcoming series.

Once again Williams and Robinson will showcase hilarious stand-up comedians – including Rory Scovel, Solomon Georgio, Bowen Yang, Jamie Lee, Pat Brown and more – as well as celebrity guests. Discussions will be had about everything from favorite childhood memories to the best sex playlists to unbeatable fashion moments.

Based on the popular podcast of the same name, 2 Dope Queens will, of course, feature Williams and Robinson’s hilarious banter which has garnered the duo legions of fans.

Along with 2 Dope Queens, Williams and Robinson have appeared in several notable films and TV series. Williams’ credits include Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Booksmart and The Incredible Jessica James while Robinson has appeared in Search Party, Broad City and Ibiza. Robinson is also the New York Times bestselling author of You Can’t Touch My Hair and Other Things I Still Have to Explain and her sophomore book, Everything’s Trash, But It’s Okay, will be published in October.

The new 2 Dope Queens specials will be available on HBO, HBO NOW, HBO GO, HBO On Demand and other partner streaming platforms. More information can be found at HBO.com.
