Archive 81: Will there be a second season of the Netflix show?
According to the showrunner, Rebecca Sonnenshine, Archive 81 is not meant to be a one-off television show.
“The idea is that we continue on with these characters into a new season, should we be so lucky to get a second season,” Sonnenshine said to The Wrap.
“It wasn’t conceived as a one-season show. I think there are more stories to tell. I think we end on a good cliffhanger that needs to be addressed, and we introduce a lot of characters that surround Dan and Melody that have very rich and interesting lives to explore further,” she continued.
“So yeah, we hope to keep going.”
Season one hit Netflix in January of 2022, and has eight episodes.
“We would love to do a second season,” Sonnenshine added.
“We have been brainstorming. We do have ideas. The writers are really excited to keep telling the story. We love our actors so much, we love the world. So, fingers crossed.”
