The SAG-AFTRA actors strike and WGA writers strike may have largely shut down the entertainment industry over the summer and fall of 2023, but that didn't stop Law & Order's Jesse L. Martin from returning to primetime. New show The Irrational had already completed episodes prior to the strikes beginning, and the procedural cases each week combined with the ongoing mystery in behavioral scientist Alec Mercer's past created a hit for NBC. Now, The Irrational is set to return for a second season, after creator/showrunner Arika Lisanne Mittman told CinemaBlend what to expect in the final episodes of Season 1.
