Netflix has not yet renewed Sweet Magnolias for season 2. However, the show’s cast Carson Rowland has already spilled secrets.
Despite being released on Netflix just a few days ago, Sweet Magnolias has already proved its imminent success. The series hit number 5 in Australia, number 2 in Canada, number 3 in the Netherlands, and number 4 in the United Kingdom. Moreover, it was featured in the top 10 list in Spain, Mexico, and New Zealand.
Critics acclaimed the series for its compelling first season. Likewise, fans have considered it as a rare hidden gem in the entertainment industry. Needless to say, the show has left viewers wanting more.
Sweet Magnolias renewal status
Netflix has not yet made an official announcement regarding the show’s renewal. Apparently, the series has to follow most other Netflix Originals in waiting for a second season renewal several months after the initial release.
However, looking at Sweet Magnolias’ worldwide viewership and rating, it would be logical for Netflix to give the green light. If Netflix sticks with its usual renewal/cancellation approach an official decision is expected by early July 2020.
