Agatha All Along Could Potentially Cast a Spell for More Seasons
Last weeks two-part season finale of Agatha All Along answered some of our questions about its surviving charactersbut it also ended with the beginning of a whole new journey for Billy (Joe Locke) and Agatha (Kathryn Hahn). Could there be more tales coming from beyond the Witches Road for Marvels spellbinding frenemies? A clue may lie in the earliest stages of the shows awards-season push. Variety picked up on this idea first: Disney is positioning Agatha All Along as a comedy series in its submissions to the Golden Globes, Emmy Awards, SAG Awards, and more. While the show didnt always fit that category (as hinted above there was a lot of death going down!), its status as a comic book adaptation sort of automatically pushes it in that direction. But its not the humorous classification thats hinting at more Agatha All Along seasons: its the fact that youd expect a single-season showwhich Agatha has long been assumed to bewould submit in the miniseries or limited series category instead. Agathas predecessor, WandaVision, racked up 23 Emmy nominations, mostly under the banner of Limited or Anthology Series or Movie (it ended up winning three, including for the outrageously catchy Agatha All Along song). Comedy implies, well, a second season could well be in the tarot cards.As Variety further points out, putting Agatha All Along in the comedy category means it could go up against some formidable competition, including previous winners The Bear, Hacks, and Abbott Elementary. The trade also offers further insight and context with regards to the Emmys specifically: Although the show was conceived as a miniseries, the announcement regarding its category shifts strongly indicates that Agatha All Along could continue beyond a single season There has been no official word from Disney or Marvel regarding a renewal. Still, the studio would have to prove to the TV Academy that more seasons are planned or make an official announcement, similar to what FX did with Shogunlast year, ultimately setting the all-time winning record for a drama series. The rules for what qualifies as a limited series and what doesnt seem rather complex (Variety digs deeper if youre interested in more details), but the main takeaway in the case of Agatha All Along seems to be that the show could, maybe, perhaps return. There are certainly some loose ends waiting to be pursued if solike, where the hell is Tommy?io9 has reached out to Disney+ and Marvel and will update if and when we hear back. Want more io9 news?
