Ted Danson's Netflix sitcom series has been renewed for season 2. Danson is best known for playing Sam Malone in the long-running sitcom Cheers, with Danson playing Sam throughout all 11 seasons that aired from 1982-1993. After Cheers concluded, Danson went on to play a variety of roles, including billionaire Arthur Frobisher in the legal drama Damages, a fictionalized version of himself in Larry David's Curb Your Enthusiasm, and the titular character in the CBS sitcom Becker.

In Michael Schur's popular NBC sitcom The Good Place, which aired from 2016-2020, Danson gained further recognition by playing the leading role of Michael. Danson's performance as Michael helped the show receive near-universal acclaim and led to him receiving multiple Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Leading Actor in a Comedy Series. After The Good Place ended, Danson starred in the NBC sitcom Mr. Mayor, which was canceled after one season.

It Is Rewarding To See The Series Continue

While A Man on the Inside's season 1 ending was satisfying, it also left room for further exploration with Charles being assigned a new case. The series not only tapped into The Good Place's humor and themes, but also filled a void for Netflix shows about older adults that has existed since Grace and Frankie concluded. Given these strengths, the remaining narrative potential, the positive reception, and the high viewership, it is for the best that Ted Danson's A Man on the Inside will continue. With a 2025 release window, the wait for season 2 will not be too long.
