Will There Be A Season 2?
Netflix has yet to officially announce a second season of Ratched, but given the show’s critical and commercial success, it’s likely that the streaming service will renew it for a second season.
The first season of Ratched ended on a cliffhanger, leaving fans wanting more. It is expected that the second season will pick up right where the first season left off, with Nurse Ratched and her allies facing off against the sinister Dr. Hanover.
The renewal for a second season also depends on the availability of the show’s cast and crew. Sarah Paulson is the show’s lead star and will be busy with other projects, so it may take some time before a second season sees the light of day.
Fans of Ratched are eagerly awaiting news of a second season. It is unclear when Netflix will officially announce a second season of the show, but given its success, it is likely that the streaming service will renew it sometime in the near future. Until then, fans will just have to wait and see what happens next in the world of Nurse Ratched.
