More shows, homegrown or international, have fallen prey to the jinx of the second season than broken it. But Tanya Bami, series head, Netflix India, is confident as the streaming giant rolls out the second season of its successful offerings — Delhi Crime, Masaba Masaba, Mismatched, Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, and many more. The key, she says, is superlative writing. An obvious rule, but hard to follow. “Series writing is the most immersive and extensive process,” Bami begins. “We start developing the second season of a show when the first [edition] is in production. So, it’s tough for writers to come up with a meritorious season two that increases the scope of the story. At the same time, the signals from the audiences are important. Who did they engage with? How do we amp up certain parts?”
