Insatiable – Lady Magic Productions/Netflix
The most controversial show of the year is set to return in 2019. After Netflix confirmed the renewal of Insatiable there was a very mixed reaction. For show fans excited for its return, here is everything we know about Season 2 of Insatiable.
Insatiable is an American black comedy-drama series created by Lauren Gussis. The show centers around teenager Patty Bladwell. After an incident with a bully, her jaw is wired shut, and she is forced to go on a liquid diet over summer vacation. When she returns to school, everyone is shocked to see the amount of weight Patty has lost. Patty plans to use her newfound attention and popularity to get revenge on those who bullied her for being overweight.
The show’s premise was rife with controversy after a backlash on Twitter accused it of fat shaming. The backlash could have potentially resulted in the show’s removal before it even aired, but arguably, the controversy only caused more people to tune in.
Some are still campaigning against Insatiable, but for the foreseeable future, we will see Patty on our screens again.
Insatiable season 1 recap
After being bullied for being overweight, Patty returned to school after a three-month liquid diet. Shocked at the amount of weight she lost, her fellow students gave her a newfound amount of attention. Former pageant coach Bob Armstrong then convinced Patty to enter beauty pageants.

Throughout the season, Patty attempts to get revenge on those who bullied her while competing in the beauty pageants. Patty continuously finds herself in more and more controversial situations. This culminates at the end of the season when Patty kills her stalker and former boyfriend, Christian. After Bob and Patty attempt to hide the body in a car, they push into a lake, and it fails to sink. The season ends with Patty confessing to Bob that she thinks she may have killed Stella Rose.
What should we expect to see in season 2 of Insatiable?
Expect a lot more controversy from Patty’s escapades as it will be revealed whether or not she killed Stella Rose. The car with Christian’s body also failed to sink, so Christian’s body could be found by the police and a murder investigation could begin. Psychologically, we can expect this to impact Patty dramatically, so we could see a very vulnerable Patty for season two.
After all the trouble she found herself involved in with the beauty pageants, Patty may quit the circuit.
In an interview, Debby Ryan expressed interest in exploring the places that Patty continues to look, adding that she’s “interested to see where Patty looks [next].”
Where is Insatiable Season 2 in production?
Filming of the second season has concluded! Debby Ryan Tweeted to celebrate for the last day of filming on June 10th, 2019.
In May, Debby Ryan posted something that suggests she may, in fact, be directing an episode in season 2. As JustJared Jr recounts the story, “Debby’s chair (labeled with her character’s name, Patty) is framed next to the director’s chair, and Debby’s pillow is laying over both chairs.”
