It's time to head back to Wellsbury, Ginny & Georgia fans, because the Netflix hit is officially returning for a second season. The cast of the mother-daughter dramedy announced the exciting news in an energetic video on Monday, April 19, 2022, and now fans have even more info about the upcoming new episodes. To get the full scoop, here's everything fans should know about Ginny & Georgia Season 2, including intel on its release date, cast, first-look photos, and more.

When Ginny & Georgia debuted its first season on Netflix on Feb. 24, 2021, it quickly became one of the buzziest new shows of the year. The series centers on a mother and daughter reinventing themselves in a small New England town — young mom Georgia sought a quieter life after the death of her husband, while her teenage daughter Ginny has to start all over again in a new school. Because of the New England setting and central mother-daughter relationship, the series received a ton of comparisons to Gilmore Girls, but its first season definitely diverged from the quainter drama on that show by including a surprising murder plot and serious discussions of race and abuse.

Since Season 1 ended with a ton of loose threads, fans can look forward to a lot of big reveals in Season 2, like where Ginny and Austin jetted off to in the finale, and whether Paul will learn the dark truth about what happens to Georgia's husbands.

Here's what to know so far about the upcoming season:

Ginny & Georgia Season 2 Release Date

On Dec. 1, 2022, Netflix announced the new season will drop on Jan. 5, 2023. The new season, which will be comprised of 10 episodes, filmed in Toronto, Canada, just like in Season 1.

Ginny & Georgia Season 2 Trailer

On Dec. 13, Netflix released the official trailer for Ginny & Georgia Season 2, which teases some intense fallout after Ginny’s learned the truth about her mother’s murderous past.

“I finally understand why Georgia’s always running,” Ginny says in voiceover at the beginning of the trailer. “I don’t know how she does it, act like everything’s normal. And I can’t help feeling like it’s all wrong.”

It’s not all so serious, though. At the end of the trailer, Georgia jokes to Ginny about killing someone for him. “That’s not funny,” Ginny responds, before Georgia convinces her, “It’s a little bit funny,” and they both break out in giggles. Only Georgia Miller knows how to turn murder into a mother-daughter bonding moment.
