This article discusses the possibility of 6ixtynin9 The Series Season 2 and may contain spoilers for the first season.
6ixtynin9 The Series is a Thai Netflix original series based on the same-titled film from 1999.
The plot concerns a woman named Toom who is unceremoniously laid off from her job amid the pandemic and is surprised to find a box full of cash delivered to her apartment. Toom lives in apartment 6, but the sign is loose and keeps swinging upside-down, so from the outside it looks like she lives in apartment 9 (yes, that’s why it’s called that.)
Here’s a quote from our review:
Sometimes 6ixtynin9 The Series is weird to its own detriment, in the manner of a show given too much leeway for indulgences that don’t really go anywhere or mean much. As it turns out, expanding a story from a feature film to a series but keeping most of the key beats the same just saps the original of its compact tension.
Proudly weird shows like this always tend to attract some fans, and they may be wondering about its potential future, so here’s everything we know.
Will there be a Season 2 of 6ixtynin9 The Series on Netflix?
Renewed or canceled status: TBC
At the time of writing Netflix have not renewed 6ixtynin9 The Series for a second season.
This is not surprising and is unlikely to change. The series is based on a feature film and tells basically the same story, which achieves a rather morbid conclusion in the Season 1 ending that sees virtually all of the characters dead and the plot pretty much resolved.
Given some of the liberties the series takes with the original story, including some jaunts into outright supernaturalism, it is theoretically possible that the show’s creators could contrive a justification to keep the story going. However, this would require a level of success that the show is unlikely to achieve.
The streamer will pay some attention to the important metrics like the number of watch-hours, and how many viewers watch the series to completion. They’ll also consider critical and audience reception on aggregators like Rotten Tomatoes. Given how unconventional and off-puttingly weird 6ixtynin9 can be, it’s highly unlikely any of these metrics will be especially positive.
Our official prediction is that 6ixtynin9 The Series will not be renewed for Season 2, but we’ll update this page as soon as we know more.
