This story contains spoilers for 'Sugar' Season 1.

'Sugar' is back to thrill audiences with a brand new season. Colin Farrell leads the neo-noir drama series as the Los Angeles-based private detective, John Sugar. Midway through the season, the show dropped a jaw-dropping twist, revealing that the protagonist is an alien masquerading as a human, sent to Earth for a specific mission. The genre-bending series is created by Mark Protosevich, who also serves as the showrunner alongside Simon Kinberg and Sam Catlin. The series premiered its debut season on April 5, 2024, and concluded on May 17, 2024. Following its success, 'Sugar' was renewed for Season 2 in October 2024, and after a long wait, it finally premiered on Apple TV+ on June 19. Below is the release schedule for 'Sugar' Season 2:

When his alien allies left the planet at the end of Season 1, John decided to stay back on Earth to find his missing alien sister, Djen.
