Dead, a black comedy on Netflix that’s been called”the darker variant of Grace & Frankie”, was a hit since season one was published in May 2019.
The show stars Linda Cardellini and Christina Applegate as two girls who meet at a grief counseling seminar and become friends.
Will the show return for another season? Check out what we know about the potential of the Dead below.

The series was revived under a month after season one launched, so we expected the next series would land after.
Who will be in the cast for Dead To Me season 2?
We are going to have to wait and see if anyone else hints on for the second run — although we know for sure that Applegate and Cardellini will be back. Could James Marsden return, also? More on that below…
What could happen in Dead To Me season 2?
The first season of Dead To Me ended on a significant cliffhanger, with Jen (Applegate) and Judy (Cardellini) standing on the lifeless body of Judy’s ex-fiancé Steve (James Marsden) — also Jen is the one who shot him.
But, founder Liz Feldman says that the end” is not precisely what you think”, which”Netflix will have to order a season two for us to figure out” whether or not Jen murdered Steve.
A bait-and-switch will be in-step with the remainder of the show: the season was filled with twists and turns, frequently subverting viewers’ expectations. The biggest of these was the revelation that Judy, Jen’s friend, was responsible.
“There is a day of this dent and there’s a rebalancing that will take place and almost, in some ways, a role reversal,” Feldman told The Hollywood Reporter. “This series will stay a series that explores the shadowy sides and the light sides of despair, loss, forgiveness and friendship. So suffice to say, there’ll be darkness.”
Is there a trailer?
Yes, even though it doesn’t give much away…
