Grand Army Season 2: Since Grand Army has been available on Netflix since October 16, 2020, there is more than enough time for Netflix to approve a second season, even during COVID-19. Fans are left wondering if the show is even returning because the streaming giant hasn’t announced it. Tensions are rising among some Twitter users. Some viewers have even threatened to cancel their Netflix subscriptions in hopes of getting a second season of the show, which follows five students from different backgrounds at a large high school in Brooklyn.
The nine episodes of Grand Army, which are based on the play Slut by Katie Cappiello who also serves as the showrunner have addressed such timely topics as terrorism, politics, pranks, family issues, cultural clashes, drug problems, se*ual assault and more.
Why did Netflix end the Production of Grand Army Season 2?
There has already been some controversy surrounding it with three writers of color leaving the show because of what Ming Pfeiffer termed in a tweet as racist exploitation and abuse on the set. In general, opinions have been divided on the show, despite the fact that it has a devoted following. For instance, IndieWire pointed out that the show has a white protagonist at its center and uses tired tropes in an attempt to appeal to millennials.
Netflix has been mum on the show’s viewership numbers, but as of October 2020, it was the service’s tenth most-watched original series. Given these circumstances, its possible return is now a distinct possibility, but by no means a given.
Things aren’t looking good at the moment. Deadline reports that Netflix has made the decision to end production on the show. While that may not be the end of the world in our modern age of platform switching it is certainly not a good omen. If another streaming service decides to pick up the “Grand Army” franchise, the show could go in the following directions.
Is Grand Army Season 2 Renewed By Netflix in the future?
Because production on Grand Army cannot begin until the show has been renewed for a second season which could happen at any time. There is currently no set date for the show’s premiere. Even if Season 2 were approved today and all the necessary steps were taken to bring back the cast and get production back on track, it might be some time before fans saw the show again.
According to reports, production on the show took place in both Toronto and New York City between May and September of 2019. After that, it took around 13 more months for it to appear on Netflix. It’s possible that the process would be quicker the second time around, but that’s by no means guaranteed. It will take even longer because a different system needs to be integrated. The show won’t air until at least 2023, if at all.

What Could be the Plot of Grand Army Season 2?
In the New York City suburb of Brooklyn, five high school seniors attend Grand Army High School and try to make it in life despite the se*ual, racial and economic politics that surround them. Numerous weighty issues that prevent the show’s protagonists from realizing their full potential have been addressed.
Late in the first season, John said yes to Dom’s prom invitation. Jay’s stirring speech at the All-State Performance was the final act of the show. Jay stood in the center of the stage, sa*ophone in one hand and black sellotape over his mouth. The systemic racism at Grand Army which this protest hopes to highlight will hopefully get more attention in season 2.
Named appropriately “Freedom” the season one finale shows the main characters experiencing brief periods of independence which ultimately leads to a glimmer of hope. Season 2 is where we really get down to business as we still have a lot of ground to cover and the fight has just begun.
