What Is Everyone Is Doing Great About?
The series is a sharp, relatable half-hour comedy created by, written by, and starring James Lafferty and Stephen Colletti — two actors best known as teen idols. It follows Seth and Jeremy, two former stars of a hit vampire drama called Eternal, now five years removed from their peak, struggling to navigate life, love, and the brutal realities of Hollywood.
Think: a love letter to anyone who peaked early and is still figuring out what comes next. It’s self-aware, funny, and genuinely touching.
Who’s in the Cast?
The ensemble features James Lafferty (One Tree Hill) as Jeremy, Stephen Colletti (Laguna Beach) as Seth, Alexandra Park (The Royals) as Andrea, Cariba Heine (H2O: Just Add Water) as Isabella, and Karissa Lee Staples (S.W.A.T.) as Sarah. whats-on-netflix
One Tree Hill fans — yes, this is basically a reunion you didn’t know you needed.
The “Lost Season” Story — And the Instagram Clue
Season 1 originally launched on Hulu in early 2021 after a successful crowdfunding campaign. A second season was fully shot in 2023, but the distribution landscape shifted, leaving it effectively stranded without a release date — “lost” media sitting in a vault. whats-on-netflix
The first public hint came when creator James Lafferty himself dropped into an Instagram comment thread and confirmed Season 2 was finished and “coming soon.” Now we know exactly what he meant — Netflix has acquired the streaming rights and will release both seasons on May 11th, making all of Season 1 and the long-awaited Season 2 available to subscribers worldwide. whats-on-netflix
Sony Pictures Television called it “raw, authentic, hilarious, and full of heart” — and honestly, that’s the pitch right there.

Why This Is a Big Deal
This isn’t just another acquisition. A grassroots, crowdfunded passion project — built by two actors who refused to let a good story die — is now landing on one of the world’s biggest streaming platforms. That’s a genuinely feel-good origin story, and it makes the show worth rooting for before you’ve even watched a single episode.
