Overview
- In Netflix’s April 13–19 Top 10, the new season logged 2.4 million views and placed No. 10, about 58% below Season 1’s adjusted launch.
- Netflix released the anthology relaunch on April 16 with Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, and Cailee Spaeny headlining a new story set around an elite California country club.
- Reviews lean positive overall, though viewer scores are lower and some critics argue the new chapter feels closer to shows like The White Lotus.
- Season 1 surged in its second week, so this week will show whether the new cast and format can rebuild word of mouth.
- Netflix is already campaigning the season for the 2026 Emmys, and a third season is unconfirmed as creator Lee Sung Jin signals he may stop even as he remains under a Netflix overall deal.
