The race to capture the hearts of binge-watchers worldwide is a fierce one, and with Netflix’s British teen drama “Everything Now” wrapping up its inaugural season, the question on everyone’s mind is: will there be a second season?

An Introduction to “Everything Now”
Launched on October 5th, 2023, “Everything Now” was designed to appeal to the viewers who have just wrapped up watching “Sex Education.” Produced by Left Bank Pictures, the drama stars Sophie Wilde, fresh from her success in A24’s horror flick, “Talk To Me”. In “Everything Now”, Wilde plays Mia Polanco, a teen recovering from anorexia. As the sands of her teen years slip away, she collaborates with friends to create a unique bucket list, titled “The F**k It Bucket“.
The Uncertain Fate of Season 2
As the dust settles after the show’s release, whether “Everything Now” gets a second run remains ambiguous. Although it’s neither labelled as a miniseries nor a limited series, the finale of the first season does leave fans clamouring for more. Adding to the ambiguity, Netflix is still producing related content, like an Australian slang game connected to the show, for their social channels.
Our analysis tilts towards a potential cancellation due to lacklustre performance metrics. Netflix uses a myriad of data points to evaluate a series’ viability, and from what’s accessible, “Everything Now” doesn’t seem to be making the cut.

What Lies Ahead If Renewed
On the off chance that “Everything Now” gets greenlit for a second season, fans have a lot to look forward to.
By the end of season one, Mia confronts the tragic news of Jenna’s death, a friend who battled anorexia like her. The season witnesses emotional highs with Mia confessing her feelings for Carli, leading to a romantic interlude that is unfortunately interrupted. The finale sees Mia making a new bucket list, setting the stage for potential adventures in a subsequent season.
“Everything Now” vs. Netflix’s Titans
Sadly, the performance of “Everything Now” isn’t reminiscent of hits like “Sex Education“. A look into its performance reveals that the series missed Netflix’s top 10s in its eligible week. External data, like that from FlixPatrol, indicates that the show had brief moments of success in specific regions like South Africa and Eastern Europe.
Adding to the grim outlook, TelevisionStats.com, which assesses demand via platforms like Google search and IMDb, indicates the series had a lacklustre reception, peaking only at the 105th spot with an engagement score of 6.04.

The Social Media Perspective
With younger audiences at its core, “Everything Now” has seen some activity on platforms like TikTok. In its debut week, over 300 videos related to the show were produced, accumulating 16M views globally. Yet, in comparison to Netflix giants like “Beckham” (241 million views) and a tapering “Sex Education” (42 million views), it falls short.

In Conclusion
The fate of “Everything Now” hangs in the balance. While the series offers a captivating storyline, its performance metrics don’t bode well for a second season. Fans of the show will have to wait with bated breath to see if Mia Polanco’s story will continue. Only time, and Netflix’s final verdict, will tell.
