TV One's "Born Again Virgin," shot and based in Atlanta, will be back again for a second season in early 2016.

The well-received comedy focuses on Jenna, a thirty-something Atlanta woman who decides to refrain from sex and write about it in a blog has generated solid ratings for the network. She also has two friends who are not following Jenna's path but support her (more or less). And there's a hot neighbor Jenna hungers for.

It currently airs at 10 p.m. on Wednesdays.

Here's the executive from TV One D'Angelo Proctor touting the decision in a press release:  "The continual character development, strong writing and topical humor combined with key demo weekly ratings gains and strong social engagement confirm the show's ability to deliver new and younger audiences."
