Apple TVs Sugar Returns for Season 2 After Two-Year Hiatus
Created by Mark Protosevich, Sugar first premiered on Apple TV+ (now Apple TV) on April 5, 2024. Apple announced the series’ renewal in October 2024, and the original season’s twist in episode 6 sparked widespread discussion among fans. Season 2 expands on that momentum: Sugar is drawn into a new case involving the older brother of an up‑and‑coming local boxer, and the investigation spirals into a broader conspiracy that forces him to confront his own limits.
Episodes drop weekly on Fridays, with new content available the preceding Thursday at 9:00 p.m. ET. The schedule is as follows:
1. “Home Away From Home” – June 19 2. “Downer Town” – June 26 3. “Watch Face” – July 3 4. “Off 15” – July 10 5. “Unknowns” – July 17 6. “Cautionary Tale” – July 24 7. “What Else Can You Do?” – July 31 8. “Like Sugar” – August 7
The core cast returns with Colin Farrell as John Sugar, Jin Ha as Danny Moon, Raymond Lee as Ji Moon, Tony Dalton as Ray Vega, Laura Donnelly as Charlotte Fischer, and Sasha Calle as Val.
Apple TV’s subscription model remains unchanged for the series. A single, ad‑free plan is priced at $12.99 per month, and new subscribers can start with a seven‑day free trial. Amazon Prime members can access Apple TV through Prime Video for $5.99 per month, while a bundle with Peacock offers a $10‑per‑month discount. The service delivers Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos content and is available on Apple devices, the Apple TV app, and other platforms such as Roku, Amazon Fire TV, and select smart‑TV operating systems.
Apple reports more than 45 million paid memberships worldwide. The subscription price was raised to $12.99 in 2025, and the service is part of the broader Apple One bundle. Sugar is available exclusively on Apple TV, and all episodes of Season 2 can be streamed on the platform’s app.
At present, the series is airing its scheduled episodes through August 7, 2026. No additional production or release dates have been announced beyond the established schedule. Fans can keep track of new installments on the Apple TV app, where each episode becomes available the Thursday before its Friday premiere.
The return of Sugar highlights Apple TV’s continued commitment to original drama content. With the series’ renewal and the platform’s expanding subscriber base, the show remains a key pillar of Apple TV’s original programming lineup.
