Yahoo News The Buccaneers gets season 2 confirmation following debut success
The Buccaneers will return for a second season, it's been confirmed.
The Apple TV+ series, based on Edith Wharton's unfinished novel of the same name, follows a group of fun-loving American girls as they enter and disrupt the buttoned-up marriage market in 1870s London.
The period drama's inaugural season concluded with its eighth episode on December 13, but fans can now rejoice in the assurance that Nan (Kristine Frøseth), Conchita (Alisha Boe) and co will be back for another round of extravagant parties and lavish weddings.

"It's been a complete thrill to watch people all over the world fall in love with these characters, who've been brought to such vibrant life by our spectacular cast," series creator Katherine Jakeways said of the renewal.
"We know season one left audiences desperate to know what's next for our buccaneers, so I'm absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to explore the further adventures of this smart, joyful, messy sisterhood."

Jay Hunt, creative director at Apple TV+, added: "The irreverence and wit of The Buccaneers charmed global audiences and we're excited to be working with Katherine Jakeways and The Forge again on the next adventure for Nan and her friends."
The Buccaneers opened to mostly positive reviews, with its critics' score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes currently sitting at 76%.
In Digital Spy's review, the show was hailed as a celebration of female friendship and sisterhood by making "girl power the main event as opposed to an accessory to the romance".
The Buccaneers is streaming on Apple TV+.
