As per Amazon, "Yearly Departed" is a series of eulogies for the year 2020, where a lineup of all-women comedians will deliver everything from casual sex to beige Band-Aids and everything in between that we've "lost" in 2020. "After a year of societal upheaval, plague, murder hornets and banana bread, 'Yearly Departed' will give 2020 the huge send-off it deserves, from some of the world's funniest women," Amazon said. Brosnahan executive produces the special alongside Paige Simpson, David Jammy, Katy Mullan, Samantha Ressler, Nathalie Love, and Bess Kalb.
