Arnold’s Back in Action: FUBAR Season 2 Confirmed by Netflix!
After a wildly entertaining first season filled with action, comedy, and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s iconic presence, FUBAR Season 2 is officially in the works—and fans couldn’t be more excited. From the anticipated FUBAR Season 2 release date to the FUBAR Season 2 cast, here's everything you need to know about the return of Netflix's adrenaline-pumping spy comedy.
What Is FUBAR About?
FUBAR, which stands for “Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition,” follows CIA operative Luke Brunner (played by Arnold Schwarzenegger) who is ready to retire when he discovers a shocking family secret—his daughter is also a CIA agent. The show blends father-daughter drama with espionage antics, leading to hilarious and heartwarming chaos.
Premiering in May 2023, FUBAR Season 1 garnered praise for its blend of action and humor, giving long-time fans of Schwarzenegger a new side of the legendary actor.
FUBAR Season 2 Release Date: When Will It Premiere?
The burning question on everyone’s mind is: When is the FUBAR Season 2 release date?
Netflix confirmed FUBAR Season 2 during its annual TUDUM event in 2023, much to the delight of fans. While there is no official release date yet, industry insiders expect the new season to drop sometime in late 2025, potentially around November or December, based on the production timeline of the first season.
Production for Season 2 reportedly began earlier this year, meaning post-production and promotional work are likely underway. Keep your eyes on Netflix's official channels for the official FUBAR Season 2 release date announcement.
FUBAR Season 2 Cast: Who’s Returning?
One of the highlights of the show is its well-rounded and dynamic cast. Here’s who is expected to return for FUBAR Season 2:
-
Arnold Schwarzenegger as
Luke Brunner -
Monica Barbaro as Emma Brunner
-
Fortune Feimster as Roo
-
Travis Van Winkle as Aldon
-
Milan Carter as Barry
-
Gabriel Luna as Boro

Fabiana Udenio as Tally Brunner
There are also rumors of new cast members joining for Season 2, potentially bringing in fresh antagonists and allies to shake things up. Netflix has hinted at “bigger missions” and “higher stakes,” suggesting the FUBAR Season 2 cast could grow significantly.
What Will FUBAR Season 2 Be About?
FUBAR Season 2 promises to dive deeper into the complicated relationship between Luke and Emma as they continue to navigate their CIA duties while trying to maintain some form of a normal family life.
Season 1 ended on a cliffhanger—with secrets exposed and loyalties tested. Season 2 is expected to pick up where things left off, with the Brunners facing both personal and professional fallout. Expect more globe-trotting missions, explosive action sequences, and sharp comedic banter.
Netflix has teased that Season 2 will feature "unexpected twists" and "emotional depth," so fans can expect not only laughs and explosions but also real character development.
Why FUBAR Season 2 Is Worth the Hype
There are plenty of reasons why FUBAR Season 2 is one of Netflix’s most anticipated shows:
-
Arnold’s TV comeback: Schwarzenegger’s first TV lead role was a hit. He brought charm, humor, and signature action to the small screen.
-
Strong chemistry: The dynamic between Monica Barbaro and Arnold is both hilarious and heartfelt.
-
Perfect mix of genres: FUBAR successfully blends spy thrillers with family comedy, offering something for everyone.
Whether you're a fan of action-packed espionage or family-centered humor, FUBAR Season 2 is shaping up to deliver.

DWTS Fans Shatter Voting Records in Season 34 - But One Star Hits Over 1 Million Views! trucc
Season 34 of Dancing with the Stars debuted in the 2025 TV schedule with a new crop of celebrity dancers as well as both new and returning pro dance partners. Corey Feldman and Baron Davis were the first two celebrities to be eliminated this season by failing to get enough fan votes, but fans are definitely coming through with voting overall. The show (available streaming with a Hulu subscription and Disney+ subscription) has already set new records with votes, and the audience growth from the first week to the second week is better than DWTS had experienced in over a decade.
Still, it turns out that only one performer from Season 34 has broken 1 million views on YouTube at the time of writing, and the runner up isn’t even close to matching him. Bobby Bones may have proved in Season 27 that you don’t have to be the best dancer to win Dancing with the Stars, and my favorite from the live Season 34 premiere has endured so far despite low scores from the judges, with Andy Richter holding on to high hopes to stick around. In theory, it's still anybody's game, but one star seemingly has an advantage so far.
Keep on reading for how well the show is doing so far, as well as the celebrity dancer who seems to have the strongest hold on viewers!
How Dancing With The Stars Is Doing On ABC
Following the second episode of Season 34 on September 23, ABC revealed that DWTS had increased its overall audience since the premiere the week prior for the first time in 14 years. Once again, it was the #1 show on Tuesday night with 5.46 million viewers total and a 1.02 rating in the 18-49 age demographic. NBC’s The Voice came the closest to DWTS, with a total audience 5.43 million and 0.41 rating, followed by NBC's AGT with an audience of 4.36 million and 18-49 rating of 0.30.
For the second week of the season, the ABC dance show also beat the combined averages of the competition on the other broadcast networks in the 8 - 10 p.m. ET time slot. For NBC, that meant The Voice and America’s Got Talent, as well as Murder in a Small Town and Doc on Fox. CBS’ Tuesday night lineup for this fall has not yet premiered.
Perhaps most impressively of all, fan voting increased from the previous week up to 35 million, up by 67% from the 21 million votes after the premiere the week before. The 35 million even beats the 32 million who voted in the Season 33 finale last year, which was won by Bachelor Nation’s Joey Graziadei and pro partner Jenna Johnson.
Basically, Dancing with the Stars is doing quite well with the size (and participation) of the audience so far in Season 34, but viewership on YouTube isn’t too impressive for all the participants.
The YouTube MVP Of Season 34 (So Far)
Of course, viewership on YouTube doesn’t necessarily reflect DWTS winners, but the numbers don’t lie so far in Season 34. In fact, the totals aren’t even close so far, with the closest that anybody has come to matching the streamer’s frontrunner still behind by around 600,000.
Unsurprisingly after he topped the ranking of 14 celebrity dancers following the premiere, Robert Irwin once again had the most-watched dance on YouTube for One-Hit Wonders Night. At the time of writing, Irwin’s One-Hit Wonder tango to Junior Senior's “Move Your Feet” with pro partner Witney Carson has accumulated 1 million views. Jordan Chiles’ jive to Michael Sembello’s “Maniac” is the second most-watched from Week 2, with 403k views.
It was a big jump ahead for the Olympic gymnast, as she came in eighth in YouTube views after the premiere, but a drop for Irwin, who came in first in the premiere with 1.2 million. (That has since increased to 1.6 million.) Still, despite the dip in views, Robert Irwin is easily the most-watched celebrity dancer of Season 34 on YouTube. Take a look at his most recent dance:
The season is only just starting, and two weeks of 1+ million views on YouTube don’t mean that Robert will automatically follow sister Bindi Irwin in becoming a DWTS champ. Keep tuning in to ABC on Tuesdays starting at 8 p.m. ET for the newest episodes of Dancing with the Stars. The next theme night, which airs on September 30, will be TikTok Night.
