The German-language comedy thriller Where's Wanda? is set to return for a second season on Apple TV, following a rare 100% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes for its first run. The show, which has been described as 'perfect' by viewers and 'electrifying' by critics, will premiere its new episodes globally on Wednesday, October 21.
The series stars Heike Makatsch, Axel Stein, Lea Drinda, Leo Simon and Nikeata Thompson. It follows Dedo and Carlotta Klatt, parents who take matters into their own hands when their daughter Wanda goes missing. Frustrated by the police's lack of progress, they investigate their neighbours and uncover dark secrets behind closed doors.
According to Apple TV, the second season sees the Klatts dealing with a new crisis: Wanda is found standing over a dead body, and the family must prove her innocence. Their search for the real murderer takes them into the criminal underbelly of their sleepy suburban town, as they try to protect their family and uncover the truth.
Critics have awarded the show a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes, while fans have praised its humour, cinematography and plot twists. One viewer wrote: 'I was overwhelmingly pleased. It was genuinely funny, aesthetically gorgeous, stupendously well acted, and decidedly fresh.' Another described it as 'hilarious and gripping', though some have questioned the lighthearted tone given the subject matter.
Where's Wanda? returns on Wednesday, October 21, with new episodes airing weekly until December 9. The first season is currently available to stream on Apple TV.
