In a statement, Comedy Central said, "We are excited to announce Klepper, a new, primetime weekly series created by and starring Jordan Klepper. The new series will premiere in early 2019 with production beginning in July. Accordingly, production on The Opposition will cease after its June 28 episode. We thank the cast and crew of The Opposition for their incredible efforts in creating such a bold, provocative show and look forward to the launch of Jordan's new primetime series next year."

In a statement, Klepper said, "I couldn't be more proud of the hard working, creative staff of The Opposition who tirelessly filtered the world through the chaos of America's fringe. This staff is remarkable. Moving forward, I will be leaving The Opposition's paranoid Jordan Klepper character behind. I figured maybe, right now, the world could use one less asshole. This new Jordan Klepper guy I know intimately cause I've been him for the better part of my life. He's eager to get into the field, talk to real America and make a kickass television show."
