Soon after 'Bless the Harts' arrived on Fox for its first season, the animated show was renewed for Season 2. Following the poor but not-so-poor family of the Harts, the family drama is equal parts hilarious and wholesome and is filled with shenanigans. 

Here's everything you need to know about it before Season 2 arrives on Fox. 

Release date

Season 2 of 'Bless the Harts' will premiere on September 27, 2020, at 8.30 pm. 

Plot

The official synopsis of the animated series states: "In the series, Jenny Hart is a single mother supporting her family working as a waitress in the small town of Greenpoint, NC. While Jenny's the head of her family, she’s often at odds with, or scheming with, her lottery scratcher-obsessed mother, Betty, and her witty, creative daughter, Violet. Jenny's doting, eternal optimist boyfriend of 10 years, Wayne Edwards, is the love of her life and a surrogate father to Violet. He's a charming dreamer who may never hit the big time, but he's not going to give up the fight. Jenny’s even got a bit of divine power in her corner, as Jesus regularly appears to her while she waits tables at neighborhood restaurant The Last Supper. In the end, the Harts may not have much, but they may just have everything they need."
