Will 'Bad Monkey' Get a Season 2? Vince Vaughn & Showunner Respond to Questions

The season finale of the Apple TV+ series Bad Monkey just aired and fans are rightfully wondering if a second season is on the way.

Vince Vaughn stars in the series as Andrew Yancy, who has been bounced from the Miami Police Department and is now a health inspector in the Keys. But after stumbling upon a case that begins with a human arm fished up by tourists, he realizes that if he can prove murder, he’ll be back in. He just needs to get past a trove of Floridian oddballs and one bad monkey.

The series is based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Carl Hiaasen and the television show was developed by Bill Lawrence, best known for shows like Scrubs, Ted Lasso, and Shrinking.

So, will there be another season? Both Vince and Bill have spoken out!

Carl actually wrote multiple novels in the Yancy series. “Bad Monkey” was followed by “Razor Girl” and “Squeeze Me.”

Bill told TheWrap, “One of the most fun things about this show is writing and working on a show that I would want to watch. I hope we get to do it again because it’s a throwback to those summer movies that I used to dig — Get Shorty or Midnight Run, the ones that seem like they’re fun caper, murder mysteries, but the truth is, they’re satires and character pieces. I hope we get to do it for two or three years. It’d be fun.”

Carl [Hiaasen] rarely writes sequels, but he wrote a sequel to it called ‘Razor Girl’ that we own the rights to,” he added.

Vince added, “If there’s an appetite for it, there are more books that have Yancy in it. So, yeah, there’s definitely the possibility of [another season] as the case goes forward.”
