Netflix is done Dragon out the wait for Season 2 of Unstable. The workplace comedy, starring Rob Lowe and son John Owen Lowe, will return on Thursday, Aug. 1, TVLine has learned.
The news, announced on Monday as part of Netflix Is a Joke Fest, came with a bonkers teaser trailer (above), which seemingly answers one of our biggest lingering questions after Season 1.
We wouldn’t blame you for not remembering how the show’s first season wrapped back in March 2023, so allow us to jog your memory: The chilling final scene found Jackson (John Owen Lowe) giving a speech about his father’s (Rob Lowe) integrity and levelheadedness at a crucial board meeting, unaware that Ellis had just torched the car of the woman attempting to oust him.
It was unclear when exactly the torching took place, and we weren’t initially sure whether it actually happened or if Ellis merely imagined doing it. But the teaser trailer suggests that Ellis is potentially facing prison time, which makes us think the torching is canon.
Returning series regulars include Rob Lowe as Ellis Dragon, John Owen Lowe as Jackson Dragon, Aaron Branch as Malcolm, Emma Ferreira as Ruby, Rachel Marsh as Luna and Sian Clifford as Anna. This season’s recurring cast, some new and others familiar, include Fred Armisen, Lamorne Morris, Iris Apatow, Frank Gallegos, JT Parr, Tom Allen and Sean Clements.

I enjoyed Season 1, look forward to Season 2. We’ll definitely have to do a S1 rewatch to refresh my memory.
Agreed hopefully they have a recap video or something at the beginning. I don’t remember much of Season 1!
Season 1 was so darn good, just an easy light watch. I can’t wait for season 2.
Seriously can’t wait for season 2
I don’t usually get into comedies, but this one was just ridiculous enough to keep my attention and make me laugh. I actually enjoyed the first season quite a bit and I’m looking forward to season two.
I enjoyed the first season, so I’m in for the second.
Absolute comedy. All the actors of this cast are top notch.
