“Sherman’s Showcase,” the IFC variety show parody, has announced the first details about its next episode: The Critics Choice-nominated series will return on June 19, known in the African-American community as “Juneteenth,” with a one-hour “Black History Month spectacular” to air on both AMC and IFC.
“‘Sherman’s Showcase’ host Sherman McDaniels has dreamed of doing a Black History Month episode for decades,” said series creators and stars Bashir Salahuddin and Diallo Riddle in an admittedly very meta statement.
