“Wolf Like Me” Clip – Josh Gad Faces Angry, Pregnant Werewolf in Season Two
A highly unique romantic comedy/werewolf hybrid, Peacock’s “Wolf Like Me” is returning for Season 2 this Halloween, and the streamer has delivered a new clip that showcases one of the perils of dating a pregnant werewolf.
Isla Fisher and Josh Gad are both returning to continue their bizarrely sweet romance in “Wolf Like Me” Season 2, which will premiere October 19, 2023 only on Peacock.
“Wolf Like Me” Season 2 will feature seven half-hour episodes.
In the new clip below, Josh Gad’s Gary discovers what happens when Mary (Isla Fisher) gets loose during a Full Moon.
“Wolf Like Me stars Gad as a widowed father living in Australia and struggling with grief as he raises his daughter (Ariel Donoghue). Mary has a secret she can’t share with anyone, even as the universe seems to be bringing her and Gary together.”
Edgar Ramirez joins the duo for the upcoming second season.
In the second season, “Mary (Isla Fisher) and Gary (Josh Gad) leap into the next phase of their relationship and face their biggest challenge yet: pregnancy.
“As much as they try to have a ‘normal’ pregnancy, it seems impossible with so many questions looming over them. Will their child be a baby or a wolf pup? Just how long can they keep things secret from the rest of their family? And will what happened in the outback come back to haunt them? But when Mary’s former professor, Anton (Edgar Ramirez), suddenly reappears in her life, new secrets from Mary’s past are revealed, leaving Mary and Gary to question whether they’re even meant to be together.”
Abe Forsythe (Little Monsters) created the series and serves as writer, director, and executive producer.
I wrote of the series in my season two review, “Life’s mundanity has never been as infectiously funny or authentically winsome as it is through this found family unit trying to find their way through life when a pesky lycanthropic curse shapes every facet of it. The emotional stakes are higher than ever, but so is the series’ sense of magic and werewolf fun.”
Don’t miss this charming series when season two arrives on October 19 on Peacock.

‘Afterlife with Archie’ Live Action Zombie Series Premieres Halloween 2027 on Disney+
The spooky comic book series Afterlife with Archie is getting a live action television series adaptation from Disney+, and Deadline reports that it’ll premiere for Halloween 2027.
The upcoming series from Warner Bros. Television and Berlanti Productions brings to life the comic book from Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Francesco Francavilla.
Afterlife with Archie turns the town of Riverdale into a zombie-overrun apocalypse — where the only thing scarier than the undead is trying to survive your teenage years…
“When a supernatural spell from a certain teen-witch backfires, unleashing an army of the possessed dead upon Riverdale, Archie and his friends must fight to stay alive, testing the friendships, romances, and loyalties that have always held them together.”
“Afterlife with Archie has always been about more than just zombies — it’s about the friendships, loyalty and humanity that make Riverdale worth fighting for,” said Ayo Davis, president, Disney Kids & Family. “Roberto, Greg, Sarah and Jon have such a deep appreciation for these characters, and they’ve built something that’s equal parts thrilling and heartfelt. Fans are going to fall hard for this new version of the gang … and maybe scream a little too.”
“The world of Archie and Riverdale is the gift that keeps on giving,” said Channing Dungey, Chairman and CEO, Warner Bros. Television Group and WBD US Networks. “To bring Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa’s incredible story to life with our partners at Berlanti Productions, Archie Comics and Disney+ is a thrill for all of us at WBTVG.”
Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa (“Riverdale,” “Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) will write the series.
“This was the comic book that started it all. Before there was a Riverdale, before there was a Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, there was Afterlife with Archie, which I collaborated on with the best horror artist in the business, Francesco Francavilla,” Aguirre-Sacasa said. “Getting to turn Afterlife into a TV series for the amazing team at Disney+ with our incredible partners at Berlanti Productions, WB and, of course, Jon (Goldwater) and his Archie family is truly a full-circle moment — and the ultimate dream project for me. Time to say a prayer for Archie, Betty, Veronica and the whole gang, ‘cause THE ZOMBIES ARE COMING!!!!”
