There’s a lot of drama to be found in the new season of “This Way Up.” Luckily, it’s all anchored by the funny comedian, Aisling Bea, allowing the whole Hulu series to offer plenty of laughs to counterbalance the relationship drama that befalls two sisters.
As seen in the trailer for Season 2 of “This Way Up,” the series follows the continuing story of Aine and her sister Shona, as they continue to deal with growing professional and personal relationship drama. For Aine, it’s all about trying to find a romantic partner while also perhaps starting a business. And for Shona, she has to deal with the pending wedding but also her growing feels for her business partner, Charlotte.
The dramedy series stars Aisling Bea, Sharon Horgan, Tobias Menzies, Aasif Mandvi, Indira Varma, and Kadiff Kirwan. In addition to starring in the series, “This Way Up” is written by Bea. The series is directed by Alex Winckler.

Here’s the synopsis:
Season two of the BAFTA award-winning series is set after the events of the season one finale, with things in flux for Aine (Aisling Bea, “Living With Yourself;” “Quiz”) and her sister, Shona (Sharon Horgan, “Catastrophe;” “Military Wives”). Aine’s starting to leave her time in rehab behind and live less cautiously, which may not be entirely wise. Will she and Richard (Tobias Menzies, “The Crown;” “Game of Thrones”) make a go of it? Or continue to exist in the odd tension of the employer and employee? How will Shona and Charlotte (Indira Varma, “Game of Thrones;” “Luther”) manage running a new business together and having feelings for each other? Will Shona be able to go through with marrying Vish (Aasif Mandvi, “Evil;” “The Brink”)? Planning a wedding? Can she tell him what happened? Is there anything more to tell?
