Netflix Renews Five Unscripted Series for Second Seasons
They really 'Nailed It' with this group.
Netflix just announced that five unscripted series will be picked up for second seasons:
- "Queer Eye"
- "Dope"
- "Drug Lords"
- "The Toys That Made Us"
- "Nailed It!"
"Dope" Season 2 already has the release date of April 20, which is pretty perfect timing for a docuseries shown from the perspective of drug dealers, users, and the police. The other series will have to wait for Season 2 premiere dates.

Bela Bajaria, vice president of content at Netflix, shared a statement on the renewals:
"These series are indicative of what we're trying to accomplish for Netflix unscripted: working with world-class producers to create the best unscripted shows on television. These series elevate the genre with innovative takes on familiar formats. They deliver immersive and nuanced stories. They elicit so many emotions from viewers, from tears of laughter to tears of joy – and that's just 'Queer Eye.'"
The new Fab Five reboot stars Antoni Porowski (Food & Wine), Bobby Berk (Interior Design), Karamo Brown (Culture), Jonathan Van Ness (Grooming) and Tan France (Fashion). (Tan France just gave Pete Davidson of "Saturday Night Live" a makeover, if you want to check that out.)
"Nailed It!" asks terrible home bakers to re-create edible masterpieces for a $10,000 prize.
"Drug Lords" tells the stories of history's most notorious kingpins, their enforcers, and the men and women who've sworn to bring them down.
In "The Toys That Made Us," the minds behind history's most-iconic toy franchises discuss the rise -- and sometimes fall -- of their billion dollar creations.
All of the first seasons are now available for streaming on Netflix.
Netflix appears to be on a renewal streak, following that unscripted news by announcing "One Day at a Time" will return for Season 3. Follow @Netflix to see what's renewed next.
