 After a shocking plot-twist of an ending (*spoiler alert* Judy's husband gets shot by Jen...now he's floating in her backyard pool), fans were desperate to find out what happens next.

The show received rave reviews...

The hit-series has an 8.2 IMDB rating as well as claiming the top spot as the no.1 show in the U.K.

After binge-watching the show, Dead to Me fanatics impatiently demanded a second season...

This fan jokingly threatened to cancel her Netflix subscription if the show didn't get a season 2.

Another fan impatiently waited for an announcement.

She joked about a conversation she had with her boyfriend about the show.

Fans finally had their prayers answered a few months back.

Netflix announced that the show will be returning for a second season, seeing Applegate and Cardellini reprise their roles as Jen and Judy.

 Since the season got the green light, fans have been drip-fed teasers and clues about what to expect next time.

Creator, Liz Feldman, says there will be more "darkness" during the second season.

She told The Hollywood Reporter: "Just like the rest of the show, it's not exactly what you think it's going to be.
"This show will always be a show that explores the dark sides and the light sides of grief, loss, forgiveness, and friendship. So, suffice to say, there will be more darkness."

She also said there will be a "role reversal" of sorts.

 "There's an evening of the score and there's a rebalancing that will take place and almost, in some ways, a role reversal." It's certainly cryptic but very intriguing.

In September, we got an exciting update on the series' progress...

 Dead To Me season 2 officially began filming.

The exciting news was confirmed by Christina Applegate:

The star posted a photo to Twitter showing her holding hands with co-star Linda Cardellini at a table read.

During a recent interview, Linda Cardellini, dropped some hints about what we'll see during season 2.

 "There are definitely going to be more secrets and more twists and turns, so we can count on that." " I knew there was a twist in the first episode when I read the first season, but I didn't realize how each episode would be, that the show would turn and twist as the season went on. So I'm really excited about that," she explained.

Her co-star, Christina Applegate, has also spoken out about the new season:

 In a previous interview with  TV Guide, the actress explained that the new episodes are a lot harder to make.

"It's going to be much harder work for me this season."

 "Holy crap! Liz ( Feldman - showrunner) went over what the season is going to look like. Oh hell. She said it's going to be much harder work for me this season. I was depleted as a human being after last year. I plan on trying to laugh a lot between now and September [when filming on season 2 began]. Really enjoy lightness," she explained.

 Sadly, fans still have a little while to wait. The series is expected to return next year, with a specific release date still not on the table. But hopefully, it won't be too long before we see our favorite pair back on our screens and we get some answers to that explosive cliffhanger finale.

And now we bring you some good news.

Dead To Me season two has... officially......... finished................ filming. And that may be the greatest news of the entire decade.

Linda Cardellini revealed the good news.

Although the second season isn't quite ready for us just yet, Cardellini confirmed that filming had finally wrapped up. She did so with an Instagram post.

The Insta post said:

Last day of shooting @deadtome #season2 today. THANK YOU to the brilliant and incredible #christinaapplegate & @thelizfeldman for everything every day. I love you both."
She added:
PS - we are very excited for everyone to see what we have been doing...

The shows creator has spoken too.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, the show's creator, Liz Feldman, explained:
What I wanted to do was create a situation where they're forced together, and they need each other now in some ways more than they did at the beginning of season 1.

We're so hyped.

So what's on the cards. Christmas is just days away. Then we've got new years. And to make the twenties even more exciting than they already are, we've got season two of Dead To Me. Enjoy!
