Lena Dunham’s ‘Too Much’ Not Returning for Season 2 at Netflix

Lena Dunham‘s Netflix series “Too Much” is done after one season.

According to an individual with knowledge of the situation, Dunham felt the story was complete after one season. The series had originally debuted at the streamer in July. Despite solid reviews, the show seems to have failed to find much of an audience, as it spent just one week on the Netflix Global Top 10 English language TV chart, though it did reach the Top 10 in 27 individual countries.

“Too Much” starred Megan Stalter as Jessica, who, per the series’ official description, “is a New York workaholic in her mid-thirties, reeling from a broken relationship that she thought would last forever and slowly isolating everyone she knows. When every block in New York tells a story of her own bad behaviour, the only solution is to take a job in London, where she plans to live a life of solitude like a Bronte sister. But when she meets Felix (Will Sharpe) — a walking series of red flags — she finds that their unusual connection is impossible to ignore, even as it creates more problems than it solves.

Along with Stalter and Sharpe, the cast of the series included: Richard E. Grant, Stephen Fry, Janicza Bravo, Andrew Rannells, Michael Zegen, Rhea Perlman, Rita Wilson, Leo Reich, Adele Exarchopoulos, Adwoa Aboah, Daisy Bevan, Dean-Charles Chapman, Kaori Momoi, Prasanna Puwanarajah, and Emily Ratajkowski.

Dunham co-created “Too Much” with her husband, Luis Felber, with their relationship inspiring the series. Dunham is also credited as writer, executive producer, and director. Felber is also an executive producer, while his band Attawalpa provided original music for the show. Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner, Michael P. Cohen, Surian Fletcher-Jones, and Bruce Eric Kaplan also executive produced. Camilla Bray served as producer. The series hails from Universal International Studios’ Working Title Television as well as Dunham’s Good Thing Going banner.

Dunham remains in business with Netflix under the deal she and Good Thing Going struck with the streamer early this year.
