Just weeks after its debut, Netflix has renewed Kate Hudson’s sports comedy, “Running Point” for Season 2.

The streamer made the announcement on Netflix’s official X account, in which series star Hudson said, “A good basketball team owner knows when to listen to the fans. So we hear you, and so did Netflix. ‘Running Point’ is officially coming back for Season 2!” Thank you so much everyone who watched the show so far! I’m just beyond thrilled because you’re really the reason why we’re able to come back and do another season. So thank you and we’ll see you next season!”

Hudson stars in Running Point as Isla Gordon, the prodigal daughter of the owner of the legendary pro basketball franchise the Los Angeles Waves. But after her brother, the president of the team, is forced to resign after a major scandal, Isla is named president. Per the official logline, “Ambitious and often overlooked, Isla will have to prove to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the larger sports community that she was the right choice for the job.” The show co-stars Brenda Song, Justin Theroux, Chet Hanks, Jay Ellis and Max Greenfield, along with Fabrizio Guido, Toby Sandeman,  Keyla Monterroso Mejia, Roberto Sanchez, Uche Agada, and Dane DiLiegro.

“Running Point” hails from writers Mindy Kaling, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen, with Hudson also executive producing. Jeanie Buss, president of the Los Angeles Lakers, also executive produces along with Lakers manager of special projects Linda Rambis.

Kaling said in a press release: “We are so thrilled to be able to deliver a Season 2 of Running Point to the fans of the show. We still cannot believe the response from audiences — thank you to everyone who has watched!  Thank you to our partners at Netflix, Warner Brothers, our star who brought this show to life, Kate Hudson, and of course Executive Producers Jeanie Buss and Linda Rambis, without whom there would be no ‘Running Point’.”
