The groundbreaking original dramedy explores universal and relatable themes of love and friendship between two best friends living in Los Angeles — in its many permutations. In season two of This Close, Kate (Stern) and Michael (Feldman) are determined to reboot their friendship. But what’s that they say about best laid plans? Kate’s past returns to haunt her in surprising ways as she finds her voice at work. Michael tries to walk the straight and narrow path, but everyone sees the truth except for him. With the return of old flames and distant parents, Kate and Michael are going to have to lean on each other or fall apart.
This Close is executive produced by Christine Vachon and David Hinojosa for Killer Films, Mary Pat Bentel and Paul Young, along with Stern and Feldman. Super Deluxe serves as the studio for the Sundance Now Original production.
What do you think? Have you seen This Close? Will you watch season two?
What do I think? I think it “This Close” needs a season 3 and 4… ah heck… let’s add a season 5 while were at it. Really really love this show. It’s wonderful to finally have a show that gives representation for people that haven’t been given the proper representation in times past. Long overdue. Although I am a straight female, not hearing impaired, nor do I have any kind of addiction, (tho not saying I don’t have my own issues, lol) I enjoy and appreciate having diversity in show choices.
I hope there will be a season three. I’ve been searching for any news. If anyone knows if it is coming back please let us know. ❤️
I just binge watched entire second season. Love the show, even though Michael turned into more of a dick. I was wondering if the second season is the final season, since they promoted the last episode as “the final episode” and not the season finale.
Love this show and no I am not deaf. The interaction is sincere, real, and the actors are very engaging. Hope this series continues.
