It’s official!
Fox-owned streamer Tubi has picked up the second season of British comedy series Big Mood, starring our very own Nicola Coughlan.
This comes ahead of Fox’s Upfronts presentation, where the free streamer is expected to be a significant part of discussions.
Earlier this year, Deadline revealed that Channel 4 had renewed Big Mood, however, at the time, it wasn’t clear whether Tubi, which aired season one, would air the second season.
But as luck would have it, they were just waiting for the Upfronts to announce it!
Written and created by Camilla Whitehill, Big Mood follows Maggie, played by Nicola, a 30-year-old writer with bipolar disorder and her best friend Eddie, played by It’s a Sin star Lydia West.
At the start of Season 2, it’s been a year since Maggie and Eddie last saw each other, without any contact between them.
“When Eddie suddenly returns for a wedding, she isn’t alone – Maggie has competition, in the form of an infuriatingly positive spiritual healer named Whitney,” reads the official synopsis.
“Can Maggie and her special brand of chaos find space in Eddie’s new life? Or will Maggie lose Eddie forever?”.
Following a hugely successful first series that was Channel 4 streaming’s highest new comedy launch since Derry Girls, it’s safe to say that the fans are expecting big things.
“It’s been one of the greatest joys of my life making it, and I’m beyond delighted that we get to come back and tell the next chapter of Maggie and Eddie’s story. Rats at the ready.”
Series 1 of Big Mood is currently available to stream on Channel 4 in the UK and Ireland and on Tubi in the US and Canada.
