Acorn TV announced today that You're Killing Me has been renewed for Season 2. The early pickup comes just two episodes into the mystery drama's freshman run. The order is for another six episodes, with production set to begin later this year.

Since its debut earlier this month, the show has made history as the streamer's #1 series launch of all time in subscriber acquisition and viewership. New episodes are being released every Monday through the season finale on June 22.

"I am crazy happy we get to do a second season of You're Killing Me," said star and executive producer Brooke Shields. "I'm thrilled to be collaborating once again with the talented Robin Bernheim and having the opportunity to act opposite Amalia Williamson and Tom Cavanagh has been a dream. Thank you to all the people at Acorn TV and the whole marketing and creative teams for helping shepherd this show to where it is today. I promise we will continue to deliver the show you all fell in love with... even if it Kills Me."

"You're Killing Me has quickly become a breakout hit for Acorn TV - a series that blends sharp storytelling and irresistible twists, with Brooke's singular presence at the center of it all," said Dan McDermott, Chief Content Officer for AMC Global Media and President of AMC Studios. "We look forward to expanding the world she's helped create, alongside the wonderful Robin Bernheim, for another season of this highly entertaining and bingeable new show, which has made history with Acorn TV's deeply passionate and engaged audience as the platform's #1 series launch of all time."

Set in the quaint New England town of Founders' Cove, the six-part murder mystery follows bestselling novelist Allie, who forms an unlikely alliance with an aspiring writer and podcaster to find the killer of a close friend. As more murders pile up, the pair of amateur sleuths clash with a local police detective working the case.
