Netflix Opens Writers’ Room for Possible Running Point Season 3

Strong early viewing has led to cautious next steps short of a formal renewal.

Overview

  • Showrunner David Stassen said Netflix has not greenlit a third season but has ordered a writers’ room and that the team feels optimistic.
  • The latest season recently arrived on Netflix and quickly climbed the service’s Top 10, according to new coverage.
  • Season 2 closes on a cliffhanger that points to bigger stakes in the story without revealing key twists.
  • If renewed, a one-year comedy cadence at Netflix suggests new episodes could land as soon as early summer 2027, depending on when a decision comes.
  • Created by Mindy Kaling with Ike Barinholtz, Elaine Ko, and Stassen, the series stars Kate Hudson as Isla Gordon, who takes charge of a pro basketball team in Los Angeles.
