The classic return of the renowned characters including Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte after 17-long-years has just filled the fans with nostalgia and the urge to have more of their blissful performances. Although, there have been two film adaptations of the show after that. Still, fans have been eagerly waiting to know if there will be And Just Like That Season 2. 

Given the recent ratings and the audience’s response, the network would carefully consider the announcement of a second installment. Most fans thought that the reboot would be a limited series, tying all loose ends to its original series. However, the show took the fans on another fascinating journey depicting their most loved characters in their fifties.

What Is The Show About?

And Just Like That is set 11 years after the events of Sex and the City 2. The series focuses on Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte’s journey as they move into their fifties. Unfortunately, Carrie loses her husband, John Preston, due to a heart attack in the first episode. The first installment was Carrie’s journey to get over the man she had loved for so many years. She learned to adapt to her new life without John while her best friends Charlotte and Miranda have problems of their own. Charlotte struggles to keep her family together, as she has constant conflicts with his teenage daughter Lily. 

Elsewhere, Miranda is not happy with her marriage to Steve. She eventually left him for his non-binary comedian girlfriend, Che. Cassie learns to deal with her life alone. She sold her big house and moved into her older place to deal with John’s absence. 

While helping her friends, handling her career, going through surgery, and appearing on Che’s LQBTQ and graphic talks podcast, Carrie tries her best to move on and be happy in her life. She also pushes her to start dating other people and find something which would make her feel better. So, will the show return for And Just Like That Season 2? Keep reading ahead to find out!

And Just Like That Season 2: Will There Be A Second Installment?

Unfortunately, HBO Max has not renewed the second installment of the show yet. However, HBO Max’s boss Casey Bloys shared recently that And Just Like That has been the network’s most successful original series to date. Moreover, the lead actress of the show Sarah Jessica Parker also expressed her excitement about the second season while talking to Variety. Sarah was sure about returning for And Just Like That Season 2. She talked about her conversation with the showrunner Micheal Patrick King a couple of weeks earlier.

The duo discussed the possibility of the second installment and how they are supposed to move forward to make it happen. Sarah shared how much planning and processing is required to make a show without losing any precious time. Thus, even though HBO Max has not renewed the show officially, there is a strong possibility that the announcement will come soon. The show makes a strong case for another installment, considering the viewership states and the ratings.

And Just Like That Season 2: Who Could Be Back For Next Season?

If the network renews the show for the second season, fans can expect the lead cast members, including Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw, Cynthia Nixon as Miranda Hobbes, and Kristin Davis as Charlotte Goldenblatt. Fans have been expecting to see Kim Cattrall to return as Samantha Jones. However, Micheal King explained that they tried to get her during the first season. But she refused the offer. Thus, it is highly improbable that she would appear in And Just Like That Season 2.

Meanwhile, Nicole Ari Parker, Sara Ramirez, and Karen Pittman are also expected to join the cast. Unfortunately, Chris North will not be returning as his character had died at the beginning of the show. Moreover, an appearance of him in the show’s finale was cut out after recent allegations of sexual abuse against North. Sadly, Willy Garson, who portrays Carrie’s gay BFF, Stanford Blatch, will not be appearing next season. He lost his battle against pancreatic cancer recently at the age of 57.

And Just Like That Season 2: What To Expect?

Carrie moved on to a new chapter of her life after losing John. She learned to live on her own. In the finale, Carrie went on her third date with Peter. She told Seema about feeling guilty about dating as she thought John was sending her posthumous messages. Meanwhile, Charlotte successfully organized Rock’s Bar Mitzvah after a series of setbacks.

Miranda decided to leave for LA with Che. Moreover, Carrie had a dream about living in Paris nearly one year after John’s death. After spreading John’s ashes in the Seine River, Carrie met Samantha for a drink. Carrie had her first Sex and the City podcast, after which she shared a kiss with Franklin in the final episode of And Just Like That.

It looks like Carrie left her past with John behind as she prepared to start a completely new chapter in her life. Thus, fans can expect to see Carrie going on new adventures and exploring new things and people in life during And Just Like That Season 2. The chemistry between Carrie, Miranda, and Charlotte is bound to continue as they help each other get through the tough situations of their lives. Also, Carrie would find someone who could really love after John, while Miranda’s relationship with Che might get to the next level in the next season.

Reality shows have been getting more attention than ever over the past few years. And networks have realized this. Therefore, from Netflix to Fox to MTV, everyone is making more and more reality shows for catering audience’s guilty pleasure. MTV’s Are You The One Is among the most popular dating reality shows around. Fans have enjoyed the ground of 20 youngsters partying and flirting for over eight seasons. And now they are eagerly waiting for Are You The One Season 9.

Are You The One Season 9: Where Are They Filming This Time?

Just to be clear, it is still very early to predict anything about Are You The One Season 9 since MTV hasn’t announced anything about it. There is no official confirmation about the shooting site for the ninth season. Based on eight previous seasons of the series, we know that Are You The One is generally filmed at a site with beautiful beaches. Thus, we are more than hopeful that the series will continue this trend when the ninth installment returns.

Kona, Hawaii, is most certainly the likely candidate for the location. MTV has shot five of its eight seasons in the state, with three of them, including Seasons 7 and 8, taking place in Kona. It’s feasible that MTV will stick with what’s working and return to the Aloha State. The other three seasons were shot on location in the Gulf Coast/Caribbean. Seasons 2 and 5 were shot in Puerto Rico, Season 6 in the Dominican Republic, and Season 7 in New Orleans, Louisiana.

If Season 9 isn’t shot in Hawaii, it will most likely be shot somewhere else with wonderful weather. California? Is it the southeast United States? Is there another Caribbean country? We don’t know yet. However, we can likely figure out Bangor, Maine.

When Is Are You The One Season 9 Coming?

The eighth season of MTV’s reality series ‘Are You The One’ premiered on the network on June 26, 2019. As far as the ninth season is concerned, there has been no official announcement from MTV about Are You The One Season 9. The reality series generally takes less than a year to release the next season after one.

However, the past three years have been unusually difficult for shows due to the global pandemic. And since the show’s format requires the participants to be in close proximity to each other, this might have been one of the reasons why MTV is not hasty to create the ninth season. But given the popularity of the series, we expect it to return once the pandemic passes.

Are Wes And Kayla Still Together?

Kayla and Wes were the other initial perfect match at the first matchup rite. Even though they attempted to scramble things up for a few episodes in the middle, Kayla and Ryan went into the Truth Booth and got together again in the ninth episode.

After the performance, Wes and Kayla didn’t seek a romance in any way. In fact, Kayla revealed at the reconciliation that she had previously visited Ryan, and the two had hooked up. That, however, did not result in anything. Wes, who goes by the Instagram handle @wesbuckles, now works in pharmaceuticals in Los Angeles, while Kayla, who goes by the Instagram handle @kaylajade.b, operates a blog and is engaged to Marcus Aurelius.

Fans were overjoyed for a trip in nostalgia lane when Netflix adapted Nickelodeon’s animated series ‘Winx Club’ for a live-action show titled Fate The Winx Saga. The first season of the series dropped in January 2021 and was filled with magic and supernatural characters. But this was never going to be enough, and fans are eager for Fate The Winx Saga Season 2. So, let’s discuss what we know about.

When Is Fate The Winx Saga Season 2 Is Coming?

The first season of the supernatural drama series was released on Netflix on January 22, 2021. And even after over a year since the first season was released, there has been no official confirmation about the renewal of the series for Fate The Winx Saga Season 2. However, given that the first season performed fairly well on the streaming platform in terms of viewership, we have no doubt that Netflix will bring back the series for a subsequent season.

Actor Abigail Cowen who plays Bloom on the show, stated during an interview, “If we are lucky enough to get a second season, I think Flora would be brought in, and I would definitely welcome that.” With that being said, till now, there are not many details about the release date of Fate’s The Winx Saga Season 2. But whenever there will be any updates about the season, TechRadar247 will be your one-go destination.

What To Expect From Fate The Winx Saga Season 2?

The first season of Fate The Winx Saga ended with some big transitions. Saul Silva was arrested by Queen Luna attempting to kill Andreas, but he was well alive and was hiding. Rosalind Murdered Farah Dowling and took her place as the new headmistress of Alfea. Meanwhile, Bloom discovered an astonishing truth about her family. She learned that her real parents were are not from Aster Dell, meaning there is a possibility that they might have survived.

Rosalind put her under the care of Vanessa and Michael while she was still small as she believed Bloom’s life would have been under threat in the Otherworld. Bloom went to Vanessa and Michael and revealed the truth about their daughter to them. When Bloom learned to access her ancient fairy magic, she transformed and slew the Burned Ones.

When Fate The Winx Saga Season 2 returns, fans can expect to see Bloom in her transformed form more frequently as she prepares herself for what’s coming next. Things will be very different at the school since now Farah is dead and Rosalind is the new headmistress at Alfea. All this time, Sky was led to believe that his father Andreas was dead. Viewers will also find out what happens to Sky’s relationship now that Andreas is back in the picture.

Rosalind And Andreas Motives?

At the end of season one, the Alfea coup affirmed a very obvious plot for Fate The Winx Saga Season 2. Rosalind and Andreas will be in charge of the Fairy and Specialist schools. And it is almost sure that it will result in more secretive acts of insurgency. Similar to the narrative of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Beatrix, Riven, and Dale are Rosalind’s agents in the student body. But it’s unknown what role they will play in her larger scheme. Rosalind had already lied to Beatrix numerous times, and she may get cold feet now that she knows it was she who razed Aster Dale.

While Rosalind will attempt to persuade Bloom to join her, Andreas will do the same with Sky. We know that Andreas kept his survival a secret from his son. And that Silva, Sky’s true father figure, has been detained on Andreas’ behalf, this will be tough. Sky has faith in Bloom, and Bloom is aware that the new management does not appear to be doing any good. This may bring Sky and his father against each other. We don’t know how the conflicts and loyalties will change as Rosalind and Andreas’ true motives are still unknown to us.

Bloom’s Powers And The Dragon Flame Explained

Bloom, who was previously thought to have lost fairy powers, regained them and the ability to shift into a winged Fairy form at the end of the first season. She displayed a fatal exhibit of fire Magic while fighting the Burned Ones when she was fully charged. She annihilated them in a matter of seconds. Bloom transformed the Burned Ones’ bodies back into human shape after beating them in this heightened state, which Farrah subsequently buried.

Rosalind told Farrah a lot about Bloom’s talents and the Burned Ones before she killed her. She claimed that the Burned Ones were soldiers in a thousand-year-old conflict and that their genesis was linked to the Dragon Flame, an ancient wellspring of magic that bestows Bloom’s incredible abilities.

The Dragon Flame came straight from the Winx Club anime, where it wielded the might of the Great Dragon, the entity who created the universe. Lord Darkar, also known as the Shadow Phoenix, is a pivotal baddie in the Winx Club. And his power was linked to the Great Dragon. The cartoon version of Darkar was similar to Burned Ones from Fate. And it’s conceivable that fans might see a different version of Darkar as the greater threat Rosalind alluded to in Fate The Winx Saga Season 2.

After the premiere of the fourth season of the series in 2021, fans are looking around in hopes of Carmen Sandiego Season 5. But what are the chances? Let us discuss everything we know about it.

Will There be Carmen Sandiego Season 5?

The entire fourth season of Carmen Sandiego was released on Netflix on January 15, 2021. But unfortunately, we have some heartbreaking news for the fans who have been waiting for Carmen Sandiego Season 5. It has been confirmed that the series will not return with the fifth season. 

According to Distractify, the makers renewed the animated action series for a fourth season in October 2020. However, in December 2020, only two months after the announcement, Carmen Sandiego’s official Twitter handle confirmed that the fourth season will be the last season of the series. The tweet said, “To the end of the line. The fourth and final season of #CarmenSandiego premieres January 15, on @netflix! @netflixfamily.” 

Morover, the creators answered a fan’s query about the show being canceled. According to them, the series is coming to an end rather than being canceled. Although the news of the series ending is sad for fans, they are satisfied that it has reached its natural conclusion.

Carmen Sandiego Season 5 Plot!

Towards the end of the fourth season, the showrunners tried to wrap up all the ongoing storylines. At the end of the season, Carmen and her buddies were successful in beating V.I.L.E., who are then put under A.C.M.E.’s custody. Even though she wants to carry on fighting for what’s right. She eventually embarks on a journey to discover the mystery behind her past. Carmen left a note for Zack and Ivy. In the letter, she disclosed her last words for the two. After two years, crime befalls the city yet again, but Carmen takes care of it and escapes into the night.

The conclusion of the series was definite and so satisfying that it is hard to predict what will happen if the show returns with Carmen Sandiego Season 5. But if we have to anticipate, our guess is that some new threat over the city with force Carmen to return and fight to save her beloved town of San Diego. There might also be a spinoff to explore different characters’ stories set in the same universe.

How It All Started?

Surprisingly, Carmen Sandiego’s career began with very different ambitions for the first video game. The series, which Broderbund programmer Dane Bigham created, was supposed to be a basic text-based police and robbers game. However, the Apple II was becoming increasingly popular among both home users and educational institutions at the time. The game’s early prototypes even differed greatly from the renowned Carmen Sandiego figure.

According to a Computer History article, the series began as “the game ‘Six Crowns of Henry VIII,’ in which players followed the Tudor King across London.” Even though the primary character had changed, the “chase adventure” theme remained. However, thanks to Gary and Doug Carlston, co-founders of Broderbund, the company’s development shifted to more towards an educational base.
