People are saying limited '11/10' series was 'so perfect' they're still waiting for season 2 years on

Fans are demanding that a second season get underway

A series that starred Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington has got fans confused as to why a second season never got under way.

TV shows often hope to form a dedicated and active fan base that is willing to tune in each week or binge a series in one sitting, but sometimes, this still isn’t enough.

In fact, a 2020 miniseries was so well received that fans are still demanding a second season.

While streaming platforms (looking at you Netflix) often greenlight shows and quickly cancel them, this happening to one particular show proved confusing for fans on social media.

Led by the star power of Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington many were sure that they would get more when the first season was over. And to top things off, the show was received by fans and critics alike.

The show is Little Fires Everywhere, that was based on the 2017 novel of the same name by Celeste Ng.

The series, which originally aired on Hulu, follows the story of how the picture-perfect Richardson family has their lives upended when they open it up to an enigmatic mother and daughter.

As well as this, the show explores the impacts of secrets, art identity and motherhood.

The show faired well on IMDB, receiving a rating of 7.7 out of 10 after almost 60,000 reviews and on Rotten Tomatoes, maintains an average tomatometer score of 79 percent and a slightly lower popcorn meter score of 61 percent.

The series got brought up on Twitter when users were asked to drop an ‘drop an 11/10 TV show’, and fans took it as a great chance to vent their annoyance.

One frustrated fan wrote: “Where the hell is season 2 it’s been years.”

While another said: “This limited series gave me LIFE during the pandemic... I need to do a rewatch to feel something...”

And a third wrote: “I just finished reading the book because I wanted a little rush again and i was like damn the miniseries knocked it out the park.”

With another adding: “I was mad they couldn’t just give us a season 2 idc if it was limited series.”

Another fan simply wrote: “The perfect series with an even more perfect title. Truly was.”

Hulu was also well aware of the show’s popularity as they stated that in its first 60 days online, Little Fires Everywhere was the most-watched drama ever on the streaming service.

While the streaming platform has never given a reason for not doing a season 2, it seemed that the mini-series was able to adequately capture and convey the conclusion of the story from the book.
