In October 2022, series creator/star Robin Thede announced the departure of actress-writer Ashley Nicole Black, telling our sister site Variety, “We are forever indebted to our sister, Emmy winner Ashley Nicole Black, whose contributions as a writer and performer on A Black Lady Sketch Show for three seasons have made an indelible mark on our series and in comedy history. She will always be a part of our family and we are rooting for her as she continues on her path of greatness.”
