Who Is America?Singaporeruffled plenty of feathers in 2018, but it seems like the show won't be making a return.
Creator, star, and executive producer Sacha Baron Cohen told The Hollywood Reporterhe wouldn't be making a second season, professing that he would be hard-pressed to repeat the antics of the first.

Baron Cohen added that he doesn't really have any new characters to turn to if another season was made, and doesn't want to turn it into a "Seinfeldor an SNL."
Another reason Baron Cohen doesn't want to do another second season is that he's "too lazy" to sit in hours of makeup. Showtime president and CEO David Nevins told reporters in August, however, that he's "dying" to bring the show back.
"It will be a process. I don't know that I'll be making any announcements [soon], but [Cohen] had me at 'hello,'" Nevins said.
And maybe that's why talk of no second season could be all one big trick. Who Is America?was only announced a week before the show aired, an impressive feat given the high profile people that featured on the show.
On Wednesday, Baron Cohen also spoke to Deadline about why Sarah Palin didn't end up appearing on the show, despite the hype, and her goading the star to air the footage.
"The upsetting answer is, I don’t think you missed much. There was a lot of pressure on me from the channel to put out Palin ... But ultimately, I looked at the footage and it just wasn’t funny enough," he told the publication.
"For the pieces to be good, there has to be a good comic dynamic. She was just delivering these kind of rote answers, as if she was doing a campaign speech. And even though I sat with her I think for about two-and-a-half hours, there was no comedy gold." Dang.
