'Alice and Steve' Renewed for Season 2 at Disney+ and Hulu
----------------------------------------------------------
"Alice and Steve" has been picked up for a second season at Disney+
and Hulu.
The comedy - which airs on Disney+ in Australia - follows Alice
(Nicola Walker), who is devastated when her best friend Steve
(Jemaine Clement) starts dating her 26-year-old daughter Izzy (Yali
Topol Margalith).
"She's going to lose her best friend and her daughter in one fell
swoop," the synopsis reads. "Alice tries everything she can to end
the relationship. Unfortunately for her, Steve's more than ready for
the attack, and what begins as a perfect friendship, devolves into
an all-out feud."
Variety praised the first season, with critic Alison Herman calling
Walker and Clement a "hilarious" duo. "The lived-in platonic
chemistry between Walker and Clement is the show's highlight and its
foundation, keeping the action anchored in something wholesome amid
some abominable behavior on both sides of the friends' growing rift,"
Herman wrote.
"I am so thrilled that 'Alice and Steve' has been given a second
season," creator and writer Sophie Goodhart said in a statement. "No
one will be prepared for what happens next, especially not Alice and
Steve."
"Alice and Steve" is executive produced by Petra Fried, Sophie
Gardiner and Wim de Greef, with co-executive producer Rachael
Stephenson for Clerkenwell Films, which is part of BBC Studios. The
series was commissioned by Lee Mason, VP of scripted at Disney+ EMEA.
"We absolutely love 'Alice and Steve' - both the show and of course
the two characters at the heart of Sophie's brilliantly messy, funny
and fearless exploration of friendship and love," Fried said. "We're
thrilled to be bringing it back for a second season and can't wait
for audiences to see what Sophie has in store for our favorite
frenemies."
Added Mason: "It's been fantastic to see the rapturous reactions to
'Alice and Steve' from viewers at home. Sophie has created a
distinctive and original comedy, striking a chord and sparking debate
with audiences across the country. I'm excited to see what mayhem
Sophie and Clerkenwell have in store for our titular characters after
that delicious cliffhanger - but we can expect more laughs, betrayal
and bad decisions in Season 2."
