Dept. Q Season 2 Is Looking More Likely Than Ever — Here’s Why Fans Should Get Excited
If you're like me and still processing the gripping, slow-burn brilliance of Dept. Q on Netflix, then you’ll be thrilled to hear what’s brewing behind the scenes. As fans of this cerebral crime drama know, the first season delivered more than just cold cases — it offered a deep dive into the wounded psyche of Detective Carl Mørck, portrayed with chilling precision by Matthew Goode. Now, it looks like our wait for Season 2 might be shorter than expected, thanks to a major move by Netflix that all but confirms their commitment to this promising series.

So if you're not caught up yet, now’s the time. Because at this rate, Season 2 seems not only likely — it’s practically inevitable.
