One Mississippi returns to Amazon Prime Video for Season 2 – and a new trailer gives us a closer look at the show’s sophomore run.

The comedy, which is created by Emmy Award nominated comedian Tig Notaro (Transparent) and Diablo Cody (Young Adult), stars Notaro as a semi-fictional version of herself, as she returns to her hometown in Mississippi, when her mother passes away unexpectedly. Alongside Notaro, the show stars Noah Harpster (Transparent) as her brother and John Rothman (Law & Order) as her stepfather, Bill. Notaro, Cody, Robin, M. Blair Breard (Better Things), Dave Becky (Master of None), and Louis C.K. (Louie) all act as Executive Producers for Season 2.

In the second season of the critically acclaimed dramedy, it’s about moving forward in life, new beginnings, and finding love. As Tig, Remy, and Bill begin the next phases of their lives, they will need to learn how to function as a family and adapt to living together in Mississippi.

Season 2 will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on Friday 8th September. Here’s a trailer:

 

Trailer: One Mississippi Season 2 to premiere in September

26th July 2017

One Mississippi will return for Season 2 this September – and we’ve got a first look at the show’s second run in action.

The comedy, which is created by Emmy Award nominated comedian Tig Notaro (Transparent) and Diablo Cody (Young Adult), stars Notaro as a semi-fictional version of herself, as she returns to her hometown in Mississippi, when her mother passes away unexpectedly. As she copes with the tragedy and deals with events from her past, the series becomes a poignant and surprisingly humorous exploration of family.

“That warts-and-all tone keeps you so emotionally engaged that you’ll be three-quarters of the way through the eight episodes before you know it – at which point you’ll be surprised to find yourself in tears,” we wrote in our review of the first season. “And yet even the moments that do make you cry are boldly underplayed, with one scene involving a mirror proving devastating in its simplicity. That’s the secret to One Mississippi’s sincerity: neither the comedy nor the drama feels forced, which, ironically, takes a colossal amount of unseen talent.”

Alongside Notaro, the show stars Noah Harpster (Transparent) as her brother and John Rothman (Law & Order) as her stepfather, Bill. Notaro, Cody, Robin, M. Blair Breard (Better Things), Dave Becky (Master of None), and Louis C.K. (Louie) all act as Executive Producers for Season 2.

Season 2 reportedly picks up with Tag once again living with Bill and brother, as she resumes her radio career in Biloxi with producer Kate (Stephanie Allynne) by her side.

All episodes will premiere on Amazon Prime Video o nFriday 8th September. Here’s a trailer:

Amazon renews One Mississippi for second season

15th November 2016

Amazon has ordered a second season of One Mississippi. The comedy, which is created by Emmy Award nominated comedian Tig Notaro (Transparent) and Diablo Cody (Young Adult), stars Notaro as a semi-fictional version of herself, as she returns to her hometown in Mississippi, when her mother passes away unexpectedly. As she copes with the tragedy and deals with events from her past, the series becomes a poignant and surprisingly humorous exploration of family.

“That warts-and-all tone keeps you so emotionally engaged that you’ll be three-quarters of the way through the eight episodes before you know it – at which point you’ll be surprised to find yourself in tears,” we wrote in our review of the first season. “And yet even the moments that do make you cry are boldly underplayed, with one scene involving a mirror proving devastating in its simplicity. That’s the secret to One Mississippi’s sincerity: neither the comedy nor the drama feels forced, which, ironically, takes a colossal amount of unseen talent.”

Alongside Notaro, the show stars Noah Harpster (Transparent), John Rothman (Law & Order) and Stephanie Allynne (Comedy Bang! Bang!). Kate Robin (Six Feet Under) is the showrunner of the series, with Notaro, Cody, Robin, M. Blair Breard (Better Things), Dave Becky (Master of None), and Louis C.K. (Louie) acting as Executive Producers for Season 2.

“Making a show as comic and tragic as One Mississippi is a risk. Pulling it off with such intelligence and nuance is rare,” says Joe Lewis, Head of Comedy and Drama, Amazon Studios. “We’re grateful for the audience response and we’re excited to bring them more of Tig and Kate’s brilliance in season two.”

One Mississippi Season 2 will premiere in 2017 exclusively on Amazon Prime Video in the UK, US, Germany, Austria, and Japan.

One Mississippi Season 1 is available to watch online on Amazon Prime Video, as part of a £5.99 monthly subscription.
