A Starz escort anthology drama, season two of The Girlfriend Experience stars Anna Friel, Louisa Krause, Carmen Ejogo, Narges Rashidi, Michael Cram, Emily Piggford, Tunde Adebimpe, Morgana Davies, and Harmony Korine. In Washington D.C., during the 2018 mid-term elections, Republican super PAC finance director Erica Myles (Friel) and GFE provider Anna Garner (Krause) get involved in a complicated relationship, even as they set out to blackmail a dark money fundraiser. Meanwhile, the Witness Protection Program relocates high-end escort Bria Jones (Ejogo) to New Mexico, in order to help her escape from an abusive ex. Despite the protection of US Marshall Ian Olsen (Adebimpe), Bria starts moonlighting as sex worker, endangering her step-daughter and Ian, as well.

Telly’s Take
Will Starz cancel or renew The Girlfriend Experience for season three? Because it is an anthology series, because the episodes are only 30 minutes, and because it is limited (i.e. the seasons are shorter), The Girlfriend Experience requires less of a commitment from its cast. Its per episode costs must be less than those for a typical hour-long drama, so Starz’ expectations may well be lower. Also, having Steven Soderbergh as an executive producer lends a certain cachet. All of that, combined with better ratings than the first season’s, I think the show will be renewed. Subscribe for free updates on The Girlfriend Experience cancellation or renewal news.
