“Love isn’t tidy,” Daniel Jones, editor of the Times’ “Modern Love” column and a co-producer of the series, told Parade.com. “It’s messy. And I think there’s value in embracing the mess, in showing the mess, in reflecting the complications and contradictions that real people experience every day in real life. The losses and disappointments.” Jones added, “Rom-coms often end in a wedding, as if that’s the logical end of any love story, but that’s just the beginning! All the meaningful, devastating and glorious stuff is just getting started.” Here is everything you need to know about Season 2 of Modern Love, including the star-studded cast!

What to expect in Season 2 of Modern Love
The season features new stories of love, including a tale of strangers who meet just before the pandemic. Actor Andrew Rannells also directed an episode that is based on a personal essay he wrote for the New York Times column. “In Season 2 we have everything from friendship that tips regretfully into a sexual relationship to a one-night fling between two men that goes horribly wrong. A woman connecting with her deceased husband through the car he loved and a middle-school girl trying to figure out her sexual orientation through quizzes (and real life),” Jones shared with Parade.com. Season 2 will also tell the story of “a divorced husband and wife, with two daughters, who find themselves suddenly flirting with each other again. And strangers who meet on a train on the eve of a pandemic, not knowing how seriously to take it, and then desperately try to find each other after everything locks down,” Jones teased. “And more!”
