Netflix has ordered a second series of Mae Martin’s semi-autobiographical show Feel Good, which stars the comedian alongside Charlotte Ritchie. In fact, Mae Martin revealed on Instagram that she was already on set filming the new series, which will be exclusive to the streaming service.
Feel Good addresses the various intricacies of both addiction and sexuality, as Mae says in the Instagram clip: “There’s loads of drama, but it’s a funny comedy. I promise.
“A lot of the time when we see addiction represented on TV, it’s shown as this really dark, harrowing experience, which it can be. But a lot of us have had the experience of doing something compulsively despite it having negative consequences.
“I think it’s important to show the mundanity of addiction and the universality of that experience. I really hope you like it and I’m excited for you to see it”.
The returning cast, including Lisa Kudrow, will be joined by Anthony Head, Jordan Stephens, John Ross Bowie, Eleanor Matsuura and rapper Eve.
Mae added: “I’m beyond excited to be able to return to the world of Feel Good, and to see Mae and George’s love story through to the dramatic conclusion we had always planned.
“I’m really deeply attached to this story and I’m so grateful to be getting back to work with the incredible team.”
