Despite the fact that the series was initially supposed to be 32 episodes, Netflix has decided to greenlight seven new episodes to the comedian’s weekly show.
Co-creator of ‘Patriot Act’, Prashanth Venkataramanujam, has said that these new episodes are to represent the sixth cycle of the series.
The show has tackled subjects such as the student loan debt crisis in America, immigration under the Trump administration, and America’s militarization and ongoing imperialization.
