Exclusive: This Joka, a stand-up comedy series exec produced by Will Smith, will not be returning for a second season on Roku.
The streaming service launched the series, which came via its acquisition of short-form service Quibi, in March.
The series features a raft of stand ups including Punkie Johnson and Chris Estrada.
Deadline understands that the decision had nothing to do with the Oscars incident, where Smith slapped comedian Chris Rock on stage, but a somewhat unusual issue with timing.
Roku is believed to never really have had the option to renew the series, which is produced by Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith’s Westbrook Studios and Topgolf Entertainment Group. The option to renew lapsed before Roku launched the show, and certainly before the streamer had the chance to analyse its viewing data, meaning that it was unlikely to return for a second season on the platform.

Two black men walk into a bar. “It was a dark and stormy night,” Open Mike Eagle says in an old-timey British accent, setting the stage. “A man with a double-breasted blazer and a smoking pipe walks in,” Baron Vaughn says, picking up his friend’s story. Then the punchline arrives. The man, a TV executive, points at our heroes: “You, you come here. Be my new negro,” says Open Mike, mimicking a faux-white-man tone. He and Vaughn start laughing.
