The Latest Update On ‘We Were Liars' Season 2 On Amazon Prime Video

Forbes25-06-2025
We Were Liars
Amazon has a new no. 1 series on its top 10 list, an unexpected hit adapted from yet another novel. That would be We Were Liars, the drama about a group of friends and their irritating rich parents and grandfather. The series had a rather shocking ending, and in some ways, seemed pretty conclusive.
It is not, however, fully conclusive, and fans are now wondering what the status of season 2 is. Bad news and good news there. The bad news is that Amazon has not renewed We Were Liars for a second season, albeit with the caveat that it is really early for something like that to be announced.
The good news is that between the show's performance and its abundance of source material, a second season or even a spin-off could be in the works. We Were Liars is the first of a two-book series, the second being We Fell Apart. It's in the same 'world' as We Were Liars, albeit with almost a wholly different cast of characters. Then there's a prequel book, Family of Liars, about a different generation in the story, which would again, have a largely new cast. Here's the synopsis for We Fell Apart:
'The invitation arrives out of the blue. In it, Matilda discovers a father she's never met. Kingsley Cello is a visionary, a reclusive artist. And when he asks her to spend the summer at his seaside home, Hidden Beach, Matilda expects to find a part of herself she's never fully understood.'
'Instead, she finds Meer, her long-lost, openhearted brother; Brock, a former child star battling demons; and brooding, wild Tatum, who just wants her to leave their crumbling sanctuary.'
We Fell Apart
The existence of more source material is not the only talk about season 2, which has also come from its cast. Here's star Natalie Alyn Lind speaking to Us about her fate:
'I don't think Cadence is done whatsoever. I think that there's a beauty to how she gets on that boat and leaves, but this is just her leaving,' Lind said. 'But what does that mean? There's an entire legacy. She has to figure out how to get along with her grandfather, so her secrets don't leak or burn the place to the ground again. There [are]But the cast wouldn't be back, right? That leaves another option. They could not do the source material and write a second season that does continue Cadence's story and brings back a lot of the cast. The other books could be adapted later or as parallel projects.
It is almost certain the We Were Liars will be renewed, but the form it would take is an open question that no one can answer yet.

What Time Is ‘South Park' Season 27, Episode 3? How To Watch

South Park Season 27 is back with Episode 3 this week after the show's second hiatus. What time does the episode begin on cable and streaming? After lampooning Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem, Vice President JD Vance and President Donald Trump (again after Episode 1) in the Immigration and Customs Enforcement-skewering second episode Got a Nut on Aug. 6, South Park didn't released a new episode last week. Instead, South Park's cable home Comedy Central held a South Park Day celebration and showed fan favorite episodes throughout the day and interviews with South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone and others at July's San Diego Comic Con. The day wrapped up with the series' pilot episode, which was released on Aug. 13, 1997. In an announcement on social media on Aug. 13, South Park indicated that it would be return with Season 27, Episode 3 on Wednesday, Aug. 20. As such, this week's new episode will premiere on Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT on Comedy Central on cable and will begin streaming on Paramount+ on Thursday at 6 a.m. ET/3 a.m. PT. Unlike the lead up to Episode 2 — featuring a short promotional clip and a pair of photos in a pair of separate posts on X — Parker and Stone have given no real indication of what Episode 3 will be about. In 15-second clip posted on X on Aug. 13 announcing South Park's return with Episode 3 on Aug. 20, only brief clips of Episode 2 were shown. 'South Park' Season 27, Episode 2 Attracted More Big Viewership The South Park Season 27, Episode 2, Got a Nut — like Episode 1, Sermon on the 'Mount — drew in big viewership for Comedy Central and Paramount+, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Per THR, Episode 2 attracted 6.2 cross-platform viewers across Paramount+ and Comedy Central. By contrast, Episode 1 attracted 5.9 million cross-platform viewers. South Park Season 27, Episode 3, will air on cable on Comedy Central Wednesday at 10 p.m. ET/PT and begins streaming on Paramount+ Thursday at Thursday at 6 a.m. ET/3 a.m. PT.
