You can thank President Barack Obama for this one, Key & Peele fans. Comedy Central’s sketch comedy series starring the multifaceted duo of Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele has been renewed for a third season. Thirteen more episodes of political incorrectness await in the fall of 2013.

“Since Obama won re-election, it only seems fair that we would give Key & Peele another season,” said Kent Alterman, Comedy Central’s head of original programming and production, in a press release.

Key and Peele recently visited fan President Obama and regularly impersonate him in their skits. “We are so thrilled about the pick-up and want to thank Comedy Central for four more years!” Key and Peele said in a press release. “Oh wait, what’s that? One more year? Oh … okay, that will work too.”

The show’s season finale will air tomorrow at 10:30 p.m. on Comedy Central.

'Key & Peele': Hats off to this sneak peek at season 2's finale -- EXCLUSIVE

Don’t cry because Key & Peele‘s sophomore season is almost over — smile because it happened, and also because the following sketch is the show’s perfect capper.

In “Hatz” — a bit that will air as part of Key & Peele‘s second season finale — Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele become embroiled in an intense game of sartorial one-upmanship. It’s sort of like an inversion of SNL‘s “Ladies Who Lunch” sketch, except nobody can accuse this one of ripping off Tim and Eric. To say anything more would mean ruining the joke, so I’ll stop here and just urge you to get in there, dog, get in there get in there get in there:

Last week we offered up an exclusive sneak peek of a hilarious sketch from tonight’s episode of Key & Peele. But if you’re like us, you’re still not done enjoying memorable skits from the Comedy Central series’ past. Luckily, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele aren’t either.

The duo have been buddies since their days as MadTV players, and over time they developed a unique comedy rapport. Together, they’ve seen their sketch series — now in its second season — become a favorite amongst fans and presidents alike. (When visiting Jimmy Fallon, Obama said that the Key & Peele skits featuring Obama’s Anger Translator were “good stuff.”) And in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, which you can pick up on stands now, we asked Key and Peele to break down four of their most popular sketches to date.

Here’s a preview of what you’ll find in the magazine, plus videos of each skit:

What’s worse than getting besieged by zombies? Getting besieged by racist zombies!

In a new sketch from next Wednesday’s episode of Comedy Central’s Key & Peele, which you can watch exclusively here, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele join forces with ex-Hercules star Kevin Sorbo to ward off a frightening zombie apocalypse. The scene riffs off of classic zombie works like Shaun of the Dead, The Walking Dead, and Night of the Living Dead – basically anything with the word “dead” in it — but Key and Peele quickly discover that these zombies have unusually discriminating tastes.

Take a look at a preview of the new sketch in the video below:
