‘Finding Carter’ season 2, episode 8 preview: New sneak peek and extra episodes

We are now past the halfway point of “Finding Carter” season 2, and if this is anything like many other shows out there, it only means that matters are going to get that much more intense from here on out.

You can see some of what is coming in the new sneak peek below, and we have to say at the moment that this may be one of the most awkward new character introductions that we have seen so far. Carter is not exactly excited to see her, and this is all made so much worse thanks to the fact that she is showing up on Elizabeth’s birthday. Why cannot this woman have any fun?

The quick summation we can offer up at the moment is this: Apparently, Elizabeth is just not meant to have a whole lot of fun. A bummer for sure, but this is not a show built around the idea of happy endings.

In addition to that sneak peek, we also have a video below from actor Alex Saxon announcing some other big news: The show is going to be coming back for more episodes! Twelve more installments of the series have been officially ordered, and they will come on the air most likely either later this year or early in 2016. There’s not too much word on that yet, but it is interesting that this is being billed as a season 2B more so than a third season. We’re not entirely sure why, but the network likes to do this with “Teen Wolf,” “Awkward,” and other shows.
