Because the source material is part of a series, there may even have been talks in the early development phase to adapt the rest of the books, too. After all, it was both an acclaimed series that won a handful of Daytime Emmys and extremely popular-dropping at the right time to pair perfectly with a cup of hot cocoa. It's unclear why there won't be more episodes of Dash & Lily. ![]() It unfortunately did make sense when Netflix finally made the announcement, considering it wasn't until nearly a year after the show hit the streaming service that there was any update on its status, and renewals typically come just a few months after something premieres. Deadline announced the disappointing news in October 2021. We're breaking down the future of Dash & Lily below.Īlthough Lily might disagree, we'd say it's okay to turn into a Scrooge: It's officially been confirmed that Dash & Lily isn't going to return for a second season. It was like a holiday miracle when the show arrived in November 2020, and with the show so binge-able (being only eight 25-ish minute episodes) and based on a series of books, it's fair to wonder if another season is a possibility. The show, based on the popular YA book Dash & Lily's Book of Dares from Rachel Cohn and David Levithan, follows two teenagers (played by Austin Abrams and Midori Francis) who've never met but correspond via notebook, sending each other on dares throughout NYC at Christmastime, and it won over many hearts with its merry and bright charm and the way it whimsically captures the spirit of the city. In its 2020 holiday slate, though, Netflix managed to release a surprise holiday-themed hit: Dash & Lily, a teen series that has no business being as good as it is, and perfect sentimental fodder for people who have a soft spot for New York City when snow is falling and lights are twinkling. This seems pretty clear that Dash and Lily season 2 is not going to happen at Netflix or anywhere.By now, with such an oversaturated market full of formulaic plots, it's rare for any new Christmas movie or series to be really good. We’ll let you know more about the future (or lack thereof) for Dash and Lily when we find out. Maybe we should have known that nothing was going to happen when it took so long for Netflix to renew the series. I don’t know why no one has mentioned this until now. I don’t know, but that sounds like Dash and Lily was canceled after one season on Netflix. And sometimes, if you don’t get the eyeballs, you don’t get to make more of the thing. Not enough people watched and it is a cruel metric in the age of the streaming wars. So that’s one of those shows, like Dash and Lily, which just won a bunch of Daytime Emmys where it’s like we, and the team at 21 Laps, feel like we made the show we promised. It’s a reminder that sometimes you can make something really good and do your job right and still have no control over viewership or box office and outcome. But no current plan and that was kind of a heartbreaker of a lesson. Dreams of a comeback in some form or format? Yes. Here’s what Levy told Collider about Dash and Lily: Levy revealed that Netflix had canceled Dash and Lily when answering a question about I Am Not Okay With This, another Netflix series that was canceled because of the pandemic and rising production costs. Producer of Dash and Lily, Shawn Levy, has been spilling all the details about Stranger Things season 4, Shadow and Bone season 2, and a whole bunch of other stuff to Collider while doing press for his new movie Free Guy. ![]() ![]() It looks and sounds like Netflix actually canceled Dash and Lily and just hasn’t said anything yet. Wondering what’s going on with Dash and Lily season 2? Us too, until very recently. But, it’s been nearly a year and we still haven’t heard anything. Since the premiere, we’ve been waiting to hear about Dash and Lily season 2. Midori Francis and Austin Abrams starred as Lily and Dash, respectively, in the Netflix original series, which is based on the book of the same name by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. We thought it was a massive hit at Netflix.Īs it turns out, we might have been wrong. It was one of the best Christmas shows and movies released on Netflix during the holiday season. Dash and Lilypremiered on Netflix in November 2020.
