Popular Jimmy Carr comedy series confirms return date and line-up after becoming social media hit

Comedy Central has confirmed that Jimmy Carr's Am I The A**hole? will return for a second season next month, with the hilarious panel comprised of Carr, Jamali Maddix and GK Barry returning for another run.

The panel show takes its inspiration from Reddit's popular Am I The A**hole? forum. Members of the public present their disputes, questionable choices and morally dubious actions to the trio, who debate whether the person was in the wrong, with Carr delivering the final verdict.

The series will return on Monday 2 November with eight hour-long episodes for fans to get stuck into.

Carr is joined once again by Maddix, best known for Hate Thy Neighbour and his stand-up and panel show appearances, and GK Barry, the social media star and podcast host who has become a regular fixture on British panel and reality TV. The format mixes family fallouts and relationship dilemmas with pettier disputes and bizarre confessions.

"I don't think I was too mean," Carr said of his hosting duties in season 1. "What's interesting is the importance of being able to take a joke in British culture – it doesn't matter what you say to people as long as it's funny. The worst thing you could say about a British person is they can't take a joke."

The return follows a strong debut. Season 1, which began in October 2025, was the best-performing Comedy Central UK original in more than three years and the number one comedy launch on pay TV in 2025. It also delivered the best social performance for a Comedy Central UK original series in more than six years, racking up over 100 million video views and a million engagements.

Comedy Central confirmed the recommission earlier this year, renewing the show alongside two other UK originals.
