Netflix Renews Alix Earle's Reality Series Earle Meets World for Season 2
Netflix has renewed Alix Earle's reality series Earle Meets World for a second season, according to Deadline. A renewal means the streaming service has agreed to make another run of episodes.
The new season will have eight episodes. It will follow Earle with her sisters Ashtin, Izabel and Penelope, her brother Thomas, her father TJ and his wife Ashley, and her mother Alisa and her husband Todd.
Season 1 launched in September. It drew 1.8 million views in its first three days. Viewing then rose 28% in the second week, to 2.3 million views. Netflix counts a "view" as the total hours watched divided by the length of the show.
Netflix also said the series was its number one unscripted series on its social channels. Unscripted means shows without a written script, such as reality programmes. The company said the show generated 337.8 million social impressions globally, meaning the number of times posts about it appeared on people's feeds.
The first season covered Earle's breakup with NFL player Braxton Berrios. It also looked at the fallout from her relationship with Alex Cooper, the host of the podcast Call Her Daddy.
The series is produced by Fulwell Entertainment and David Grutman's DGN Studios. Executive producers listed for the show are Ben Winston, Paul Loban, Charlie Van Vleet, Trish Gold, Glen Gottlieb, Ally Gasparian, David Grutman and Evan Rosenfeld.
For viewers, the news is simple. Season 2 is coming, and the family that made up Season 1 is back on screen. A second season also means a new crew, new edits and a fresh set of filming months for the production team. Netflix has not said when the new episodes will be released.
Brandon Riegg is Netflix's Vice President of Nonfiction Series and Sports, the department that oversees shows like this one.
