"I had high hopes when I first heard about the new Peacock series, The 'Burbs. Keke Palmer? Jack Whitehall? A riff on an '80s cult classic? Yes, yes, yes. And happily, the series lived up to the hype. It somehow feels like a show that would have been perfectly at home in a highly anticipated fall TV premiere lineup from years past, while also being fresh and modern. And our girl Keke? Perfection."
"But after that jaw-dropping finale, fans are asking the obvious question: Will The 'Burbs be back for Season 2? Peacock's darkly funny suburban mystery left enough loose ends (not to mention at least one beloved character in actual peril) for viewers to feel like this can't possibly be a one-and-done series. Will that translate into being picked up for more, though? Here's what we know so far about the future of The 'Burbs."
"As of now, Peacock has not officially announced a second season of The 'Burbs. Womp, womp. Since the show received a straight-to-series order for its debut season, its fate largely depends on audience response and viewership in the weeks following its premiere. However, early signs are pretty promising. The series debuted to good buzz and solid reviews, plus it shot up to the top of Peacock's most-watched rankings. On top of that - all of which typically factor into renewal decisions - the show's creator seems hopeful."
The 'Burbs stars Keke Palmer and Jack Whitehall in a darkly funny suburban mystery riffing on an '80s cult classic with a fresh, modern tone. The series delivered strong buzz, positive reviews, and high placement on Peacock's most-watched rankings after a straight-to-series order. The Season 1 finale ended on a major cliffhanger, including fan-favorite Naveen captured by a secret HOA-obsessed group, creating demand for continuation. Peacock has not officially renewed the show; renewal will depend on ongoing audience response and viewership. The show's creator has expressed hope for a second season.
