Netflix is getting an early jump on Tires.

The streamer has handed out an early second-season renewal for the scripted comedy starring Shane Gillis. The pickup arrives just before the series, co-created by Gillis, Steve Gerben and John McKeever, officially arrives May 23. Season two will arrive in 2025 as Netflix plots more programming to return on an annual basis similar to broadcast fare.

Gillis, the comedian who hosted Saturday Night Live earlier this year after he was fired from the show in 2019, is fresh off three sold-out shows in L.A. as part of the Netflix Is a Joke festival. Gillis also has his second stand-up special coming in 2025 after his 2023 effort, Beautiful Dogs, spent two weeks in the U.S. top 10 list.

Tires revolves around Will (Gerben), the nervous and unqualified heir to an auto repair chain, who attempts to turn his father’s business around despite constant torture from his cousin and now employee, Shane (Gillis).

Exec producers include Gillis, Gerben and McKeever; Brandon James for Rough House; Brian Stern and Kenneth Slotnick for AGI Entertainment Media & Management; and Becky Astphan. McKeever directs and writes alongside Gillis and Gerben. The cast also includes Chris O’Connor, Kilah Fox and Stavros Halkias.
