The Girl from Plainville Season 2: Renewed or Cancelled? – “The Girl from Plainville” is based on true events and tells the story of Conrad Henri Roy III and his girlfriend, Michelle Carter. Michelle rose to prominence after her lover committed suicide in his pickup by suffocating on carbon monoxide. Michelle’s involvement in her boyfriend’s suicide was revealed in a string of texts exchanged between the parties.
Conrad and Michelle’s meeting and following trial after the former’s death are explored in the eight-episode first season.
The series is based on a 2017 Esquire article by Jesse Baron, and was co-created by Patrick Macmanus and Liz Hannah. The story never gets too emotional, instead presenting (and dramatizing) events in a methodical manner. The principal cast has been praised for their moving performances, and the first season closes on an intriguing note.
So, what’s new in season 2 of ‘The Girl from Plainville’? So far, here’s what we know.

Release Date for Season 2 of ‘The Girl from Plainville’
Season 1 of ‘The Girl from Plainville’ aired on Hulu on March 29, 2022. The first three episodes were released at the same time, with new episodes coming out every week after that. Season 1 features a total of 8 episodes, each lasting about 45 minutes.
In terms of a possible season 2, it doesn’t appear that one will be produced. Because the show is advertised as a miniseries, it will most likely only have one season. Michelle and Conrad’s story, as well as the girlfriend’s legal case, are both told in great detail, leaving little opportunity for a second season’s story.
Of course, given the show’s real-life inspiration, the story continues in part. The real people who inspired the show occasionally make the news. The core plot of ‘The Girl from Plainville’ has, however, come to a close, with Michelle being found guilty and sentenced to prison. The show’s inspiration comes from an Esquire article that concludes at a comparable moment in time.
Finally, the postscripts at the end of episode 8 make it plain that the series has come to an end. In the years after the trial, they share a little information about Michelle and Conrad’s parents, ultimately wrapping up the story.
Finally, the Hulu show is a miniseries with a predetermined finish. The tale is part of Season 1’s eight episodes, and it closely follows the breadth of the news piece on which it is based. As a result, a second season of ‘The Girl from Plainville‘ is quite doubtful.
