Will There Be a Season 2 of Leanne?
As of early August 2025, Netflix has no official confirmation that Leanne has been renewed for season 2. That’s honestly frustrating given how quickly the show connected with audiences since its July 31 premiere and the fact that Chuck Lorre, a serial hitmaker, is at the helm.
In recent chats, Leanne Morgan herself said, “Yes, I hope it goes a second season,” and Kristen Johnston, her on-screen sister, confirmed the show is “definitely set up to hopefully continue”. But, Netflix plays things close to the vest—they sometimes take months to announce a renewal, even for shows that are obvious hits.
Leanne Cast
This isn’t just another sitcom ensemble—there’s some real comic pedigree here:
-
Leanne Morgan as Leanne Murphy (she’s not just starring, she co-created the show—her blend of sincerity and Southern wit is the glue)
-
Kristen Johnston as Carol, Leanne’s brash, twice-divorced sister
-
Celia Weston as Mama Margaret, the family’s endlessly needy matriarch
-
Blake Clark as Daddy John, old-school and endearingly checked out
-
Ryan Stiles as Bill Murphy, the ex-husband with his own midlife mess
-
Graham Rogers as Tyler, their long-suffering son
-
Hannah Pilkes as Josie, their unfiltered, offbeat daughter
-
Jayma Mays as Mary, the nosy neighbor and church buddy
-
Tim Daly as Andrew, Leanne’s late-in-life love interest

In a light-hearted update shared by @netflix on X, viewers are invited to dive into LEANNE, a brand-new comedy series led by Leanne Morgan and executive produced by Chuck Lorre.
Leanne
Leanne is an American sitcom created by Susan McMartin, Chuck Lorre, and Leanne Morgan. premiered July 31, 2025, on Netflix. The series follows Leanne Murphy, a Tennessee grandmother left to pick up the pieces after her husband of 33 years ditches her for another woman. She’s forced to rebuild—with menopausal hot flashes, a snarky sister, adult kids, and all the unfiltered catastrophe you’d expect from real life (plus a little Lorre-coined chaos for flavor).
This isn’t just Morgan’s stand-up in sitcom form, either. Sure, it’s inspired by her life, but it’s a fictional comedy first. The tone is sharp, sweet, irreverent, and—praise be!—not sanitized for easy laughs. The show rides the same rails as Lorre’s The Big Bang Theory or Mom, but with a pain-is-funny, real-women-are-messy spark that feels overdue on Netflix.
