TBS has greenlit comedy game show for a second season, with an unconfirmed number of new episodes for 2020. The logline: Inspired by the card game “Sh*t Happens,” “The Misery” Index is the only game show where contestants can make a fortune out of other people’s mis-fortune. Teams compete against each other by attempting to rate hilarious and miserable real-life events based on the “misery index”, a ranking system created by a team of therapists.
Jameela Jamil will return as host along with stars of truTV’s “Impractical Jokers,” comedy troupe The Tenderloins – Brian “Q” Quinn, James “Murr” Murray, Joe Gatto and Sal Vulcano – as panelists.
