Amazon.com Inc. on Thursday said it’s given the green light for at least two more seasons of critically-acclaimed original comedy “Catastrophe.” The show is written by and stars Rob Delaney and Sharon Horgan, who was nominated for a BAFTA Award for her role. The success of “Catastrophe” continues the run of online streaming platforms, such as Amazon, Netflix Inc. and Hulu — a joint venture of Walt Disney Co. , 21st Century Fox and Comcast Corp. — enjoying success in content creation as they push further into original programming. No exact date is set, but the third season of “Catastrophe” will come to Amazon Prime Video in the U.S. in 2017 and the fourth season is expected in 2018.
