Netflix’s poignant dramedy After Life is setting its sights on a second chance at…. well, life.
The series, helmed by star Ricky Gervais, tells the story of Tony, a man living in the fictional English town of Tambury. A writer for the local newspaper, Tony’s life was upended when his wife died from cancer.
In Season 2, debuting Friday, April 24, his story continues as he struggles with the lingering grief that accompanied his wife’s passing. As he puts in the effort to become a better friend, viewers will see a different side of Tony. And things will also become intensified when the fate of the local newspaper becomes unclear.
