“The Rehearsal” picked up for a second season by HBO

Since it debuted last month, Nathan Fielder’s The Rehearsal has been getting tons of rave reviews from fans and critics alike. So it really should come as little surprise that the show has been picked up for a second season.

The series “explores the lengths one man will go to reduce the uncertainties of everyday life. With a construction crew, a legion of actors, and seemingly unlimited resources, Fielder allows ordinary people to prepare for life’s biggest moments by “rehearsing” them in carefully crafted simulations of his own design. When a single misstep could shatter your entire world, why leave life to chance?”

Amy Gravitt, Executive Vice President of HBO Programming, says “Nathan has sparked such a lively conversation with THE REHEARSAL. We have no idea where season 2 will take us, and that is the delight of this boundary pushing show from a truly singular talent.”
