Adolescence still has us reeling.… So much so, we’re dying to know if Adolescence season 2 is happening or not.

The Netflix series is, undoubtedly, one of the most remarkable shows of the year, if not of the decade. Cocreated by Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne, the show’s four ultra-intense single-shot episodes shined the light on the growing misogynistic subcultures that have wormed their way into children’s lives through their screens. It’s chilling, heartbreaking, and vital viewing.

The show has already had a huge impact—worldwide, it was viewed 24.3 million times in its first week. And while it may not have been an easy show to watch, no one has been able to deny its importance…which leaves us wondering: Will Graham and Thorne bring us Adolescence season 2 any time soon?

What happened in season one of Adolescence?

Adolescence followed the story of Jamie, a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering his classmate Katie. Over the course of four episodes that play out in real time, we see the impact of his arrest on his family, a snapshot of the school where he went, a glimpse into his psyche via a therapy session, and finally, a portrait of his family’s life after his arrest.

Although the story wasn’t based on one real event, it was inspired by multiple horrific crimes that have happened in the UK in recent years. As such, it offered a poignant, startling look at very real issues in our society today.
