IFC Renews SisterS for Season 2; Netflix Orders Live-Action Scooby-Doo Series
IFC and AMC+ announced the renewal of dark comedy SisterS, created by, written and starring real-life best friends Emmy(R) nominee Sarah Goldberg (Barry) and Susan Stanley. Donal Logue and Sophie Thompson are confirmed to reprise their roles as Jimmy and Sheryl, respectively, in the six-episode, thirty-minute series. Other stars include Sonja Smits, Barbara Brennan, Jim Annan, Dylan Taylor, Vanessa Matsui, Peter Keleghan and Linda Kash. Currently filming in Canada, SisterS is slated to premiere in 2026 exclusively on IFC and AMC+ in the US. In Ireland the series will air on RTÉ. In Canada, the series is a Crave Original and streams on Crave. Fremantle is handling global sales.
Season two picks up in Dublin, eighteen months after Sare (Sarah Goldberg) had abandoned her sister Suze (Susan Stanley), who has just discovered she can't have the biological child she has just figured out she wants. Meanwhile in Canada, Sare realizes she is floating in the dreamy haze of denial about who she is but thinks she has managed to board the 'perfect life' train, just in the nick of time. When an invite to Sare's wedding lands on Suze's doorstep, Suze travels to Canada in the hope of reconnecting with her sister. Then, the sisterly drama ensues.
Scooby-Doo, one of the most recognizable characters of all time, is coming to Netflix as an all-new eight-episode live-action series that will uncover how everyone's favorite mystery-solving gang, and their beloved dog, first teamed up to crack the haunting case that started it all. A modern reimagining of the iconic mystery-solving group of teens and their very special dog. During their final summer at camp, old friends Shaggy and Daphne get embroiled in a haunting mystery surrounding a lonely lost Great Dane puppy that may have been a witness to a supernatural murder. Together with the pragmatic and scientific townie, Velma, and the strange, but ever so handsome new kid, Freddy, they set out to solve the case that is pulling each of them into a creepy nightmare that threatens to expose all of their secrets.
Josh Appelbaum and Scott Rosenberg will run the show. Executive Producers: Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman (via Berlanti Productions and its overall deal with Warner Bros. Television), André Nemec and Jeff Pinkner (via Midnight Radio). Based on characters created by Hanna-Barbera.
