Widow’s Bay fans finally have a real timeline to work with. After a record-breaking 14 Emmy wins for a comedy series in a single year, Apple TV has already renewed the horror comedy for Season 2, and star Kate O’Flynn says filming is“hopefully March time.”Since Season 1 shot in Massachusetts from May to August 2025 and premiered in April 2026, that March start points to a possible late 2027 return.
The show’s momentum is hard to overstate. Season 1 wrapped at 10 episodes, and Apple TV renewed it before the finale even aired. Creator Katie Dippold has also signed a multi-year overall deal with the streamer, so the island isn’t going anywhere. O’Flynn’s own tease for the new season is wonderfully unhelpful:“everything is great on the island and there’s nothing to worry about.”Anyone who watched Season 1 knows that’s not how this island works.
If you’re one of the few who hasn’t started yet, the timing works in your favor. Apple TV runs $14.99 a month with a seven-day free trial for new subscribers, and 10 episodes is an easy weekend binge. That gives you plenty of runway before Season 2 arrives, and plenty to talk about with everyone already theorizing about what’s next. So, are you team binge-it-now or team wait-for-the-hype-to-die-down?
