Netflix's viral series The Hunting Wives is zanier, gayer, and more political than you'd expect from the streamer's latest hit book-to-series adaptation. Based on May Cobb's 2021 mystery novel of the same name, the eight-episode show follows Sophie (Brittany Snow), a married East Coast liberal who moves to a wealthy Texas enclave and immediately becomes obsessed with Margo (Malin Akerman), the local queen bee of a clique dubbed the Hunting Wives. Before viewers can stop reeling from the conservative women-behaving-badly antics and Sophie and Margo's overt flirtation, a crime turns the town of Maple Brook upside down.
Since the eight-episode murder-mystery series dropped in July 2025, The Hunting Wives has become a word-of-mouth hit, with fans demanding more episodes after a wild ending cliffhanger. Read on below for everything you need to know about The Hunting Wives season 2 so far.
