“Dead to Me” has been renewed for a second season by Netflix, series creator Liz Feldman announced during a For Your Consideration Emmy panel Monday.
The half-hour dark comedy’s 10-episode first season, which launched May 3, follows Jen (Christina Applegate), a devoted mother and freshly-minted widow with a short-fuse, and Judy (Linda Cardellini), her well-intentioned but sometimes overzealous new best friend with a heart full of secrets. James Marsden also stars as Judy’s impossibly charming and somewhat estranged ex-fiancé, Steve.
Applegate and Cardellini will return in their respective roles for the 10-episode Season 2, which is set to hit the streaming service in 2020.
