Sharon Horgan is going to have a very busy next few years.
Her HBO comedy series 'Divorce' starring Sarah Jessica Parker and Thomas Haden Church is going full steam ahead for an autumn debut and now, with two seasons of 'Catastrophe' under her belt, she and writing/acting partner in crime Rob Delaney have been commissioned to produce not one but two more seasons of the show.
TWO new series of @SharonHorgan & @robdelaney's Catastrophe commissioned by Channel 4. Just the tonic this country needs right now.

The news came in today via Twitter and we couldn't agree with Heat magazine's Boyd Hilton more. It's no surprise really, seeing as the show walked away with a BAFTA for writing back in April, but it's nice to see that Channel 4 have enough confidence in the duo to let them really plan out the show and let them focus on making it the best it can be without having to worry about trying to impress execs.
No word yet on when we're going to be seeing seasons three and four, with Horgan stating in April that they were really only beginning the writing process for season three then.
And to add to all of that, she's reuniting with Pulling's Dennis Kelly for another Channel 4 comedy 'The Circuit'. How she has the time and energy to do all that, we'll never know.
All we'll say is that we're delighted for her, and all the new stuff can't come soon enough.
