Netflix has renewed its comedy “The End of the F—ing World” for a second season, the streamer said on Tuesday.

Charlie Covell will return to write the second season, which is based on the award-winning comic series by Charles Forsman. Murray Ferguson, Ed Macdonald, Andy Baker, Charlie Covell, Dominic Buchanan and Jonathan Entwistle serve as executive producers.

The eight-episode first season followed James (Alex Lawther) and Alyssa (Jessica Barden) – a self-proclaimed psychopath and a foul-mouthed rebel fed-up with her boring life. The two embark on a roadtrip to find a better life, and escape the impending doom of adulthood. As their chaotic journey unfolds, it becomes apparent that James and Alyssa have crossed a line and have no choice but to take it as far as they can.
