Leanne Season 2: Filming Schedule Teases When It Finally Drops
Netflix’s hit sitcom Leanne is officially back on the clock, with fresh taping dates setting cameras to roll at the start of the new year—signaling a Season 2 release window in mid to late 2026.
Quick update on Netflix sitcom 'Leanne': the show is heading back in front of a live audience soon, and we finally have just enough info to make an educated guess about when Season 2 will drop.
So when is Season 2 coming?
Mid to late 2026 is the safe bet. Netflix has not announced a premiere date, but new audience taping dates suggest the production machine kicks back into gear right after the new year. If they are taping in January and February, a second-half-of-2026 release lines up with how Netflix tends to roll these out. Consider this the first real progress report since the renewal earlier this year.
Where and how it is filming
Season 2 will, once again, shoot in front of a live studio audience at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California. Per What's on Netflix, the current taping dates are:
- January 9
- January 16
- January 30
- February 6
- February 12
- February 27
Audience tapings do not map out the full production calendar by themselves, but stacked dates like that usually mean the season is moving through the pipeline. Again, Netflix has not confirmed anything beyond that.
Why the renewal was a no-brainer
Season 1 premiered on July 31 and stuck in Netflix's global Top 10 for two straight weeks. That was enough heat to keep the partnership between Chuck Lorre Productions and Warner Bros. Television humming along for another round.
How many episodes this time?
Unknown. Netflix has not said. Season 1 ran 16 episodes, but there is no guarantee Season 2 matches that count.
What the show is
Co-created by Susan McMartin, Chuck Lorre, and Leanne Morgan, the series follows a woman starting over after her husband of 30 years abruptly bails. With help from her sister Carol and the rest of her family, she stumbles through all the unexpected curveballs with a sense of humor. The cast includes Kristen Johnston, Celia Weston, Blake Clark, Ryan Stiles, Graham Rogers, and Hannah Pilkes. The show is produced by Chuck Lorre Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.
