Netflix has locked in Thursday, June 5 for the Season 2 return of Tires, the blue-collar workplace comedy from Shane Gillis, Steve Gerben, and director McKeever. The renewal comes as the streamer continues to lean into creator-led comedy with bite—this time doubling down on the offbeat rhythms of an underdog auto shop facing the fallout of its own accidental success.
Created by and starring Gillis and Gerben, Tires picks back up at Valley Forge Automotive, where the chaotic marketing push from Season 1 actually worked. Business is booming—but not without consequences. With the shop busier than ever, Will (Gerben) and his wildly unqualified cousin Shane (Gillis) are now scrambling to meet demand, keep the crew from imploding, and hold the business together without combusting.
The ensemble remains intact, with Chris O’Connor, Kilah Fox, and Stavros Halkias returning for the new episodes. Andrew Schulz joins the season in a guest spot.
Behind the camera, McKeever returns to direct. The season marks the second project out of Dad Sick Productions—the production shingle formed by Gillis and McKeever—following Gillis’ stand-up special Beautiful Dogs, also for Netflix.
Produced by Gillis, Gerben, McKeever, Brandon James, Brian Stern, Kenneth Slotnick, and Becky Astphan, Tires has carved out its lane as an off-kilter workplace comedy that’s less about redemption arcs and more about riding out the dysfunction.
The drop lands ahead of summer, giving Netflix another unsentimental comedy play at a time when broad sitcoms are struggling to stand out—and creator-led vehicles like this one are increasingly doing the heavy lifting.
