A recap of shocking moments in ‘Ginny & Georgia’ Season 2
Fans of Ginny & Georgia saw the characters return for another season on Netflix. The release featured 10 new episodes, and the premiere opens with Ginny and Austin living in Boston. Ginny now has to deal with the fact her mom is a murderer, and the season features more reveals.

The fans were the only ones to find this turn of events startling. According to Still Watching Netflix, Tom’s death surprised the cast of Ginny & Georgia. Sara Waisglass told Brianne Howey, “I know definitely the most shocking thing for me in Season 2 is when you killed Cynthia’s man.”
The other castmates agreed with Waisglass’s opinion. Howey makes it clear that her character is not a serial killer despite having killed multiple people. Georgia only decides to do what she believes is best for Cynthia at that moment.
“One was an accident. This one is a mercy kill. Cynthia did the ultimate act of protection for Georgia. Now, this is Georgia’s version of protecting Cynthia,” Howey explained.
Will there be a third season?
Deadline reports that Ginny & Georgia remains one of the more popular shows on Netflix. When Season 2 premiered, it gained around 180.47 million hours worth of views within the first few days. The viewership did better in the first week than other relatively recent releases.
The second season brought the show up to the No.1 spot among TV shows on the platform. Some people may have their criticisms, but many fans cannot wait for another season. The cliffhanger in the finale sets the stage for more storylines.
Fans may have theories about where the show may go, but a renewal remains uncertain. Netflix has not yet confirmed if there will be another season of the comedy-drama. The high viewership in the first week may increase the show’s chances. Still, people will have to wait to find out for sure.
