Netflix has handed a speedy renewal to its comedy series Tires from Steve Gerben, Shane Gillis, and John McKeever. Following its 12-episode season 2 debut on June 5th, we’ve had to wait a little close to a month to hear about the future of the show which is now confirmed to be back in 2026.
Season 2 of the workplace comedy debuted to slightly fewer views than Season 1, but that’s primarily because the runtime was substantially longer on its second outing, increasing from 2 hours to 4 hours and 54 minutes, thanks to the bump to 12 episodes. It garnered 13.7 million hours watched between June 8th and June 15th, equating to 2.8 million views, but ultimately dropped out of the rankings in the following week, suggesting it fell below 2.7 million views, which would have been enough to qualify it in the rankings.
Despite falling out of the top 10, the show continues to receive favorable reviews across the board, with some of the new episodes on IMDb garnering ratings of 8.5 and above. In their review, Collider noted that Season 2 was a vast improvement over the first season.
Episode count, casting news, and additional information will be revealed at a later date.
The series is part of a big comedy push at Netflix in recent years, which seems to be paying off. They’ve had a slew of hits from the past couple of years, including Nobody Wants This, A Man on the Inside, and Running Point. They’ve also experimented with several smaller shows featuring a big stand-up comedian at the center, such as Bad Thoughts with Tom Segura, which was recently renewed for a second season, and next up is Free Bert, headlined by Bert Kreischer.
In addition to the announcement of the renewal, the streamer released several behind-the-scenes photos from the filming of the second season:
