A great TV show stands on four steadfast and unchanging pillars: mystery, drama, comedy, and a good story the viewer can buy into. Russian Doll ticked all these boxes enthralling critics and fans alike with a compelling narrative that blended science fiction into reality as the show sought to explore multiple harrowing themes such as alcoholism, drug abuse, nihilism, and various topics that are considered to be an undercurrent in todays world.

While a time-loop is a fairly common concept for cinephiles, the Russian Doll takes it a bold step further not revealing the entire picture to the viewer at one go. We are forced to untangle a Gordian knot as the protagonist Nadia does so making it an exciting watch.

Russian Doll: Season 1 aired on Netflix in February last year. It was a tremendous success with viewers begging for more; naturally, Netflix renewed the popular show for another season making an announcement germane to the extension of the same on June 11, 2019. Unfortunately, Television Production is not immune to the effects of the ongoing pandemic and the shows sequel season has been delayed indefinitely for now.

Netflix has not given much information with regards to the second seasons official release date. Production was supposed to start in early May this year however plans have been put on hold considering the situation.

Russian Doll: Season 2

The plot of Russian Doll Season 2 hasnt been revealed to fans to avoid sparking theories and generating spoilers. Natasha Lyonne acts as the lynchpin holding the show together and does a fantastic job in bringing the character of Nadia Vulvokoc to life as she navigates the desolate path of alcohol /drug abuse and unravels the intricate puzzle she has been dropped into. None of this comes as a surprise considering her track record; case in point: her work as Nicky Nichols

If the first season is anything to go by, we expect a multitude of plot twists and brain-teasing plotlines bound to have fans on the edge of their seats. Natasha Lyonne has spoken about Season 2 in an interview connecting the show to a video game, an interesting dynamic to say the least considering Nadia is a computer programmer by profession.

The story starts on Nadias 36th birthday party as she battles a crippling existential crisis fueled by thoughts of her dead mother. Shades of nihilism come up in the show as Nadia dies time and again only to resurface at her friends loft. Nadia soon realizes that she is caught in a time-loop and tries to come to terms with her new circumstances whilst simultaneously eradicating theories about the same. The show picks up the pace when Nadia discovers that Alan is also suffering the same fate.

The trailer is not yet released you can check the season one trailer for reference.
