Season 2 also stars Sophie N lisse, Jasmin Savoy Brown, Sophie Thatcher, Samantha Hanratty , Courtney Eaton, Liv Hewson, Steven Krueger, Warren Kole and Kevin Alves.

Season 1 of the hit show received seven Emmy nominations and was the second-most streamed series in Showtime history with an average of over 5 million weekly viewers across platforms. It is created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson and is executive produced by Lyle, Nickerson and fellow showrunner Jonathan Lisco. Drew Comins also serves as executive producer. Karyn Kusama directed the pilot episode.
