Get ready for more laughs, chaos, and brutally honest friendship. “Platonic“, the hit comedy series starring Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne, returns for its second season on August 6, 2025, with the first two episodes dropping on Apple TV+. After that, new episodes will roll out weekly every Wednesday, leading up to the finale on October 1.
A Quick Look Back: “Platonic”
In Season 1, we met Will and Sylvia, two longtime best friends reconnecting in midlife. Their platonic bond—both hilarious and a little chaotic—sent ripples through their personal lives. The show’s unique charm came from how it explored the messiness of adult friendships with heart and humor, all while showcasing the electric chemistry between Rogen and Byrne.
Season 2 picks up with a major shakeup: Will has a new girlfriend. Naturally, this changes the dynamic between him and Sylvia. She’s not thrilled—and not just because she’s feeling a little left out. The season explores how friendships evolve when new people enter the picture, and how even the strongest connections can be challenged by life’s changes.
Expect Sylvia to wrestle with insecurity, jealousy, and the fear of losing her best friend. Meanwhile, Will tries to balance his new relationship with his long-standing friendship—without completely falling apart in the process.
New Faces, Same Vibes
Alongside the returning cast, including Rogen and Byrne in top comedic form, this season introduces some new characters who promise to stir the pot. Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney, and Beck Bennett join the fun, bringing their own brand of humor and unpredictability to the group dynamic.
At its core, “Platonic” is still about navigating adulthood—awkwardly. Whether it’s balancing careers and relationships, figuring out boundaries in friendship, or just trying to do “normal adult stuff” like couple’s dinners or social events, the show keeps things relatable and funny.
The trailer teases everything from golf lessons to wedding chaos, all filtered through Will and Sylvia’s hilariously dysfunctional lens. It’s a season that leans into personal growth, while also leaning into a wine bar when things get too real.
Whatever happens, the season is sure to deliver sharp writing, strong performances, and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. “Platonic” is streaming on Apple TV+.
