Apple TV+ has renewed its acclaimed German-language dark comedy Where’s Wanda? for an eight-episode second season. The show, produced by UFA Fiction, brings back the original cast for more quirky crime-solving.
Here’s the Lowdown: The Klatts family (Heike Makatsch, Axel Stein, and Lea Drinda, alongside Leo Simon) are thrown back into chaos when daughter Wanda (Drinda) is found at a murder scene, appearing to be the culprit. The family must work to prove her innocence, digging into the hidden criminal world of their seemingly quiet suburban town. The first season dropped on March 8 2025.
What This Means Now: Fans of the first season, which is currently available to stream on Apple TV+, can expect more of the same darkly comedic tone and family-focused mystery. The renewal confirms the show’s success and Apple TV+’s investment in international content.
The Bigger Picture: Where’s Wanda? continues the trend of streaming services offering original programming in languages other than English. The show’s blend of dark comedy and crime elements, set against a seemingly ordinary suburban backdrop, appears to be a winning formula, that is now officially a returning format. The main cast is returning, featuring Heike Makatsch (Love Actually), Axel Stein (The Vault), Lea Drinda (The Gryphon) and Leo Simon.
