Shane Gillis Comedy ‘Tires' Greenlit For A Third Season At Netflix
Less than one month after the second season premiere of comedy Tires with Shane Gillis comes word of a third season renewal at Netflix.
Set at an auto repair shop, Tires was first conceived as a pilot concept that Gillis posted on YouTube. Netflix acquired the series as part of a deal that included Gillis getting another stand up special at the streaming services.
Tires follows Will (Steve Gerben), an unqualified heir, who attempts to turn his West Chester, Pennsylvania auto repair business around despite the ongoing attempts of his obnoxious cousin Shane (Gillis) to derail him.
Gillis self-financed the first six-episode season of Tires, which dropped in May 2024 and was also created by Steve Gerben and John McKeever. Twelve episodes were produced in season two, with the number of episodes for the upcoming third season in 2026 not confirmed at press time.
The cast of Tires also includes Chris O'Connor, Kilah Fox, and Stavros Halkias.

The ultimate success of Tires comes shortly after NBC's inability to build interest in the similar appear comedy American Auto, which aired from 2021 to 2023 and followed the offbeat executives and employees of a major automobile company in Detroit. Decades earlier, effective in September 1974, NBC, in contrast, struck immediate ratings gold care of Chico and the Man, which was also set at a garage and starred Jack Albertson and initially comedian Freddie Prinze. After the untimely passing of Prinze in January 1977, the sitcom limped along for one final season without him.

Marvel is Making Big, Cosmic Moves in Its Comics
Things are always happening in the Marvel Universe, and a lot's been happening as of late. Doctor Doom's taken over the planet and there's been some big assassinations up in space, and they're both leading to some new status quo changes over the rest of 2025 and into 2026. At its various panels across San Diego Comic-Con, the publisher gave details on what's to come in the aftermath of its two big, current events, Imperial and One World Under Doom. In the pages of Doom's final issue in November, the evil Doctor will make sure to turn his victory over Earth's heroes into a fixed point in time, which also means his defeat is just as fixed, too. This will lead us into what looks like a hunt for the new Sorcerer Supreme since Doom's apparently vacated the spot. Our candidates include the likes of Storm, Nico Minoru, and Captain Marvel, and the succession process will begin in December. Space-wise, Imperial will end its four-part story in October. In its wake is a number of new cosmic-focused books, two of which were fully revealed: Planet She-Hulk from Stephanie Phillips and Aaron Kuder picks up with Jess still stuck on Sakaar and running things after promising to rule over it in Hulk's absence. And in Nova: Centurion, Jed McKay and Álvaro López pick up with Richard Rider as a drifter holding a sentient repository of the now extinct Xandarians. That repository requires a lot of energy and money, and that means Rich has to make some cash while reeling from knowing the 'terrible lie that the new Galactic Union was built upon.' Both books will be followed by Black Panther: Intergalactic in December, then Exiles and Imperial Guardians in winter 2026. The premises and creative teams for those will be revealed in the coming months. Over in Ultimate Marvel, that universe's heroes will see their first big event in Ultimate Endgame. Announced prior to SDCC, the five-issue miniseries Deniz Camp, Jonas Scharf, and other artists sees the Maker (Reed Richards) finally come out of his prison to find the heroes that've cropped up in his absence. Now that he's freed, it falls to the Ultimates, Spider-Man, Black Panther, Mei, and Wolverine to gather thier allies and fight for their world. During the Ultimate Marvel panel, Camp said the event 'has a bigger impact than most people will know' on the main and Ultimate universes, and further likened it to Crisis on Infinite Earths before Jonathan Hickman cheekily corrected him with Secret Wars. Before Ultimate Endgame begins on New Year's Eve, Hickman and Marco Checchetto's Ultimate Spider-Man will wrap after a two-year run on Christmas Eve. (The other books, such as Ultimate Black Panther and Ultimate X-Men, don't have final issues set at time of writing.) However, this isn't the complete end, as Marvel's promised that book will 'create promising roadmaps for future storytelling.' What awaits the Ultimate universe after things go down in Endgame will have to wait until 2026 draws closer. Want more io9 news?
