Widow’s Bay season 2: Creator reveals long-term plans

We know at this point that a Widow’s Bay season 2 has been greenlit over at Apple TV, but what could the long-term future here hold beyond that?

We recognize fully that it may be too early to even have serious conversations about this very thing. However, at the same time, we are in an era now where a lot of shows only have two or three-season runs. That is even more common on streaming, which tends to lean more into creative vision than stretching out shows simply for the sake of doing so.

Luckily, it does not appear as though season 2 here is going to be the last chapter, based at least on creator Katie Dippold’s new comments to The Hollywood Reporter:

A big part of the fun in the writers room was that we thought a lot about the history of the island and what’s been going on since the founder up until today. There was a lot of stuff that we couldn’t do or just decided to not do yet. Between that and characters that we have, there’s a lot. I would love to do a Rosemary episode for Dale Dickey, a Dale episode with Jeff Hiller. There’s so many characters to get to know more. I always wanted it to feel like there’s a lot to explore in the island. Little nooks and crannies full of terror that you haven’t seen yet. And I really want to get more into Bashir, Kevin Carroll’s character. There would be a lot more to do.

Our general sentiment at this point is that this is a plan that would bring the show to at least three or four seasons, and we also hope that this is a sign that both Dickey and Hiller are going to be back in a major capacity. In particular, Dale now knows more about the island’s history than almost anyone!
