As of right now, there is no official word about a second season of The Perfect Couple.
The series came in second place among TV at the streamer, only beat out by Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, when it launched in September, via Deadline.
It even beat Season 4B of Emily in Paris, accumulating more than 20M views in its debut weekend. In its first three weeks, The Perfect Couple managed around 52.6M views, which is considered a strong performance.
When asked about a Season 2 of The Perfect Couple, Elin Hildebrand admitted that she didn’t get enough of the characters in the six episodes.
Showrunner Jenna Lamia also told Deadline she felt for those who binged the “gourmet cheeseburger” in one sitting, and that they are already working together to adapt another of Elin‘s novels.
Nicole spoke of the possibility of Season 2, something she believes should happen, as does much of the cast: “I think it’s ripe [for more]…I think there’s still an enormous amount of history and an enormous amount of future,” she told USA Today.
Liev added: “They’re taking a break for now, but who knows? You can have the best cast, you can have the best director, you can have tons of money, but you don’t always get that synergy between people where they’re making room for each other. And this group of actors was really, really great at that. It was a lot of fun.”
Ishaan Khatter is already theorizing about storylines for his character next time around, saying “If they want to [do a] season 2, maybe Shooter and Amelia do end up together.”
