When Do ‘Shrinking’ Season 2, Episodes 1 And 2 Come Out?

(WARNING: Spoilers for Shrinking will be found below.)

One of my favorite shows from 2023 is moments away from returning for its second season. Shrinking is gearing up to kick off its second season which should be jam-packed with 12 episodes of humor in all forms — dry, awkward, dark, self-deprecating, and more. Jimmy (played by Jason Segel) continues to work through the grief behind his wife’s death as he also raises his daughter Alice (played by Lukita Maxwell) and works to improve their relationship. Jimmy also works as an unorthodox therapist who nearly crosses ethical lines, something that his coworkers Gaby (played by Jessica Williams (who is phenomenal in this series)) and Paul (played by Harrison Ford (who is also awesome)) witness regularly.

That’s what’s in store for you if you’re just checking into Shrinking . If you’re all caught up, here’s when you can expect season two to premiere:
