Production on season two will begin in February 2020 in Vancouver.
Kory Lunsford, vice president, Current Series, Disney Channel, said, “Gabby Duran & the Unsittables gives us a bold new heroine, brought to life by the incredibly talented Kylie Cantrall and our top-notch creative team led by showrunners Mike Alber and Gabe Snyder. We’re thrilled that Gabby’s comedic adventures with her extraterrestrial friends will continue to entertain our audience and deliver a message about acceptance and self-discovery.”
