Hulu Gives HOW I MET YOUR FATHER a Super-Sized Season 2 Renewal
Hulu has given a super-sized season 2 order to their new sequel series, How I Met Your Father. The second season of the Hilary Duff-led series will have 20 episodes, double that of the first season. “In How I Met Your Father, written by Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, in the near future, Sophie (Kim Cattrall) is telling her son the story of how she met his father: a story that catapults us back to the year 2021 where Sophie (Hilary Duff) and her close-knit group of friends – Jesse (Chris Lowell), Valentina (Francia Raisa), Charlie (Tom Ainsley), Ellen (Tien Tran) and Sid (Suraj Sharma) — are in the midst of figuring out who they are, what they want out of life, and how to fall in love in the age of dating apps and limitless options.”
I loved How I Met Your Mother, but I’ve been trepidatious about this new series. I waited to see if it would get renewed, and now that it has, maybe I will give it a shot. I do like the cast a lot, and that goes a long way.
Jordan Helman, Head of Scripted Content, Hulu Originals, said of the series:
“Isaac and Elizabeth’s inspired vision for How I Met Your Father has proven to be true appointment viewing that fans cannot get enough of week to week. The lives of these characters, as portrayed by the immensely talented cast led by Hilary Duff, are just starting to unfold and we’re thrilled to bring more of this group’s journey to our viewers with a supersized second season.”
The first six episodes of Season 1 are available now on Hulu, and the rest of the season will air Tuesdays through March 15th. Are you looking forward to an extended second season?
