Netflix has handed a second season order to Bad Thoughts, the twisted sketch-comedy showcase from Tom Segura, with six new episodes now confirmed.
The pickup follows a solid showing in May, when the first season landed without much fanfare but quickly found traction with fans of Segura’s stand-up. The series leans into the darker end of his comedic spectrum, trading in the kind of uncomfortable, cinematic absurdities that don’t fit a live set.
While Netflix hasn’t announced a release window, the early renewal points to internal confidence—both in Segura’s pull and in the format’s return-on-attention. The six-episode structure stays consistent, giving the team room to stretch conceptually without overshooting the format.
Bad Thoughts also aligns with Netflix’s recent trend toward short-order, creator-led comedy vehicles, allowing for distinct voices without long-term overhead. The platform’s comedy slate has been tightening, but Segura’s return signals that bite still has a place—if the execution lands.
No word yet on what topics season two will skewer, but Segura has hinted at even darker corners. The tone isn’t for casual browsers—but that’s part of the sell.
