What is My Life With the Walter Boys Season 2 About?

Although the author of Season 1’s source material Ali Novak just announced a sequel book to the novel My Life With the Walter Boys called My Return to the Walter Boys , this book won’t serve as a basis for Season 2.

The series took a different direction at the end of Season 1 than Novak’s novel, which hints at Jackie’s return more solidly than the end of the show, as Jackie boards a flight to New York to go back and live there with her Uncle Richard after the complicated love triangle she experiences with two of the Walter brothers.

“When you’re making a television series that you want to be returning, you have to make changes from a novel. I wanted to surprise the audience. I wanted to give the audience something a little bit different than they were expecting from the book,” Halsall told Deadline . “I wanted to leave it open-ended what Jackie was going to do and what boy she was gonna end up with,” Halsall said. “I’ve often said that maybe Jackie won’t end up with a boy but she’ll end up on her own. Maybe that’s still the case. It was a deliberate decision to make that change, and I think it was organic to the story.”

Halsall envisioned a multiple-season show from the beginning. Rodriguez applauded Jackie for choosing herself at the end of Season 1.

“Jackie’s going through a lot and she has really big dreams and goals, and so I really hope for Jackie that she doesn’t get too off track and doesn’t get too distracted and just remember what she really wants,” she told Deadline. “Ultimately, no one’s gonna look out for you the way that you would. So I think… her choosing herself is really important for people to see, and I kind of applaud Jackie for it to be honest.”
