HBO will get a holy trinity of The Righteous Gemstones as it renews the comedy for Season 3.

The renewal news comes just weeks after Season 2 debuted on January 9. Created, written by and starring Danny McBride, The Righteous Gemstones tells the story of a world-famous televangelist family with a long tradition of deviance, greed and charitable work. Season 2, which will end on February 27, finds the blessed Gemstone family threatened by outsiders from both the past and present who wish to destroy their empire.
