‘Adolescence’ is making quite the buzz on the internet with talks of a second season. This crime drama, which debuted on Netflix less than a month ago, took the internet by storm. It is already in talks for its next season, and Netflix would be foolish to let the chance go.
Barantini’s psychological drama is at the peak of its popularity. Produced by Brad Pitt’s ‘Plan B’, this series starring its co-creator Stephen Graham has audiences in a vice-grip. Its gripping thriller narrative involves a teenager. All of its four episodes were shot in one continuous take. This has left viewers in awe, and they can’t help but want more.
Talk is going on between Plan B co-presidents and the director. The next iteration of the show is being considered. It would be interesting to see how they expand the narrative while remaining true to its theme and tone. They must avoid making it feel like a repetitive cash grab. This is a difficult job. Many series has seen a fall from grace because of this very decision. The historical drama Shogun, too, has been subjected to this very issue with its renewal.
The series has garnered an insanely good reputation. It has risen rapidly in the ranks. It has beaten all its fellow debut shows in their respective debut weeks. It has blasted in ratings across the board, surpassing the likes of ‘The Queen’s Gambit’ and ‘Bridgerton’. It seems only a matter of time before eager fans are thrust back into the gripping world of ‘Adolescence’.
