Comedian and actor Amy Schumer has set a new unscripted series at HBO Max, according to a release. Spanning eight half-hour episodes, Amy Learns To… sees Schumer "step out of her comfort zone and into someone else's." This is the comedian's second unscripted series for HBO, after the 2020 docuseries Expecting Amy, which chronicled her pregnancy journey.

　　As a synopsis, that's still admittedly pretty vague--all that's known is that the show promises to have Schumer "learn a new skill, craft, or trade from a local expert in her husband's hometown of Martha's Vineyard." This show extends a brand Schumer has been building for herself since the start of the pandemic, when she pivoted on the Food Network to with the aptly titled Amy Schumer Learns to Cook, in which she similarly pushed herself to be a fish out of water and tried to learn the culinary arts from her husband, Chris Fischer, who is a farmer and chef.

　　"We are thrilled to be working with Amy again," said Jennifer O'Connell, executive vice president of non-fiction and live-action family programming for HBO Max. "She is sure to surprise and amaze us with her willingness to push boundaries and try something new, always with a hilarious spin."

　　Schumer added that she is "pumped" to "dive for clams, sell real estate, perform a magic trick, or (sort of) repair a roof." No release date for the upcoming series has yet been announced.
