'Dickinson' Season 2 Coming to Apple TV+ on January 8, Renewed for Season 3

Thursday October 8, 2020 9:24 am PDT by Juli Clover

"Dickinson" with Hailee Steinfeld was one of the first shows to launch on Apple TV+ back in November 2019, and now it will be one of the first shows to get a second season.

Season two of the series is set to premiere on Friday, January 8. The first three episodes of the season will become available on that date with new episodes to come out each Friday after that.

In the show, Steinfeld plays famous American poet Emily Dickinson, and the show humorously explores the constraints of society, gender, and family from Dickinson's perspective. The second season will see Dickinson "pulled out of her literary life and thrust into the public eye."

Along with announcing the season two release date, Apple today confirmed that "Dickinson" is the first ‌Apple TV‌+ show that has been renewed for a third season. All of Apple's launch shows, such as "For All Mankind," "The Morning Show," and "See" have been renewed for second seasons that will premiere in 2021.

Apple is CRUSHING it!! A new series announcement every day the last two weeks. This is massive. Dickinson has a MASSIVE millennial following on Twitter and is an objectively entertaining show.

S2 in Jan. and Season 3 announced! First Season 3 announcement so far! I'm looking forward to seeing Apple greenlight Seasons 4, 5, and 6 next.

When I signed up for Apple TV+ in early November, I watched For All Mankind immediately (I love everything space and Ronald D. Moore). Then I viewed See, which started promisingly enough (then gradually crashed and burned IMO). With strong words of mouth, I binged The Morning Show a month later.

But I delayed watching Dickinson. The premise and style just didn't appeal to me. Sometime in March, with shelter-in-place, I figured what the heck.

2 hours later, I binged 4 episodes back-to-back. Charismatic cast, snappy writings, and stylish take hooked me instantly.
