The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2 Is Renewed
Amazon Prime Video’s The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy premiered on February 23, 2024, and shortly made hype around the adult animated sci-fi series fans. The series took the audience to Galaxy’s exploration and how the aliens deal with everyday life, especially anxiety-related problems.

But you don’t have to fret anymore! That’s because Prime Video has already renewed the series for the second season. That’s right! The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2 is happening. The streaming platform renewed the series for the second season ahead of the first season premiere. Initially, The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy was ordered to be a series of 16 episodes. However, the first season only released eight episodes.
Showrunner Cirocco Dunlap said they didn’t want to develop the show as a single 16-episode series. Hence, they split the series into two halves. Fans can rest assured that The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2 will soon hit their screens. Further, the animated series performed incredibly well on the platform. It gained 6.4 stars out of 10 on IMDb and 94% on Rotten Tomatoes. However, the streaming platform hasn’t yet shared its viewership count. But it won’t affect Prime Video’s decision.
The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2: Production Status
As mentioned above, the show was announced in 2020. You’ll be surprised to know that it has been in development since then. Interestingly, The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2 was written during the first season’s production. Since the first season aired in 2024 and the show is still in production, it seems the series will soon wrap up its production phase. It also suggests that both seasons were developed back-to-back.

So, season 2 might have entered the post-production phase. Typically, the animation work takes 12 to 18 months. Given the time the animated series has been developing, the show might be closed to wrap everything. We will update you as soon as we learn about the official announcement. But there’s a rumor that the series showrunner is preparing for the third season. This might extend the show’s production time.
Will Titmouse Return To Animate The Series?
Since the series was announced, Amazon Studios and Animal Pictures have remained the production houses, while Titmouse, Inc. is the animation studio behind the series. The studio was founded in 1999 in Los Angeles and has created several animated series and movies. These include Class of 3000, Let’s Fish, Happy Monster Band, and Superjail!
While the animation house is known for producing several series a year, many doubt whether it will return to animate The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2. But you don’t have to stress. That’s because the show has been in development, and Titmouse, Inc. is working on it. As mentioned above, the series entered production in 2020 and has been developing both seasons together. So, it’s safe to say that the animation house will return.
The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2: Cast Details

What To Expect From The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2?
The first season focused on Klak, her battle with anxiety, and her troublesome relationship with her mother. As the series progressed, it focused on Klak’s redemption arc and how things changed in her life. While in the ending, Klak and Sleech helped save the world from the apocalypse, the second season might focus on another dark storyline. In the final scene, a journalism company called Deep Cut focuses on the duo’s bravery and how they stopped the apocalypse.

However, it seems like things will turn more challenging in The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2. This new limelight will complicate things for the doctors as they try to navigate their lives. Meanwhile, the series showrunner said in an interview that the second season would focus on Sleech’s life. It will delve into her backstory and how her life is different than Klak’s. Dunlap revealed that the next season will also focus on another aspect of anxiety.
Not everyone faces the same problems. So, the show will explore mental health and how challenging things can become. Sleech has been keeping her vulnerability under wraps, but it will be explored in the next run. Fans will also get to know more about her family and friends.
Showrunner Plans To Return With More Seasons
While Prime Video has only renewed the series for two seasons, the series showrunner Dunlap shared their plans to extend the animated series. She told The Direct that she has plans for more seasons. They are working on The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2. However, she knows how the show will move and what she wants in future developments. Dunlap revealed that the potential future seasons will explore different characters.

The first season was focused on Dr. Klak and her battle with anxiety. However, her storyline will not remain the center of the series’ second season. Dunlap revealed that The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 2 will focus on Dr. Sleech and the problems the character had faced in the past and how it would affect her life. The showrunner added that the series will focus on “a variety of examples of anxiety.”
Thus, it’s safe to say that the series will soon return for The Second Best Hospital In The Galaxy Season 3. However, the renewal decision is based on several parameters, like viewership counts, the number of people who subscribed to the platform, and the budget. So, it doesn’t seem like the third season will arrive soon. Fans will have to wait a little to learn the future of the potential seasons.
