Romantic drama 'Every Year After' renewed for Season 2
Washington DC, June 28
Romantic drama 'Every Year After' has been renewed for the second season less than a month after its debut, reported Variety.
Based on Carley Fortune's bestselling novel 'Every Summer After,' the first season of the drama tells the friends-to-lovers-to-second-chance-romance story of Percy Fraser (Sadie Soverall) and Sam Florek (Matt Cornett).
The two reunite a decade after their breakup when Percy returns to the lake town of Barry's Bay (where Sam and his brother Charlie, played by Michael Bradway, grew up, and where Percy spent her childhood summers) following the passing of Sam and Charlie's mother, Sue (Elisha Cuthbert).
In Season 2, Amazon confirmed 'Every Year After' will shift the focus to Charlie and adapt Fortune's sequel book, 'One Golden Summer,' while "continuing to explore the fan favourite stories and characters from the first season," reported Variety.
Showrunner Amy B. Harris will continue in her role for Season 2 alongside executive producers including Fortune, Lindsey Liberatore, Amy Rardin, John Stephens and Grace Gilroy.
"The response to 'Every Year After' has been truly extraordinary, underscoring the universal appeal of Carley Fortune's storytelling and the deep connection audiences have formed with the world of Barry's Bay," Amazon MGM Studios head of global television Peter Friedlander said, as quoted by Variety.
"We're incredibly grateful to Carley, Amy B. Harris, our exceptional cast and creative team, and the passionate fans who have embraced this series around the globe. We're excited to return to Barry's Bay and bring audiences another deeply emotional and unforgettable chapter," added Peter as quoted by Variety.
The 'Every Year After' Season 2 includes Bradway, Soverall, Cornett, Aurora Perrineau, Abigail Cowen and Joseph Chiu.

I love that Amazon is investing in these romantic dramas! As someone who grew up reading Carley Fortune's books, seeing this adaptation come to life feels special. Yes, some changes from the book, but the emotional depth remains intact. Can't wait for Season 2! 😊
Good to see a show getting renewed so quickly. The first season was beautifully shot and had genuine emotional moments. Percy and Sam's story felt authentic. Hope they maintain the quality in Season 2 with Charlie's storyline.
Honestly, I'm a bit skeptical. 🤔 The first season was decent but not groundbreaking - just another friends-to-lovers story. I wish they'd focus on something more original rather than milking the sequel book. The Indian TV industry has been doing these second-chance romance stories for decades better. Still, I'll give Season 2 a chance for the beautiful lake scenes.
As a huge fan of Carley Fortune's books, I'm thrilled! 😍 "One Golden Summer" is actually my favorite of her novels. The fact that they're adapting it properly gives me hope. Also, Sadie Soverall and Matt Cornett are perfect casting. Just please don't rush the story - let the emotions breathe!
My wife forced me to watch Season 1 and I'll admit - it grew on me. 😅 The way they handle relationships and family dynamics is realistic. For Season 2, I hope they add more depth to the brotherly bond between Sam and Charlie. That's
