Stuart Fails To Save The Universe has been renewed for a second season by HBO Max. The pickup comes while the first season is still airing, with new episodes continuing weekly through the September 24 finale.

The Big Bang Theory spinoff has delivered a strong debut for the streamer, becoming HBO Max’s second-biggest comedy launch globally. The first season has also earned a Certified Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes following its debut at San Diego Comic-Con.

Created by Chuck Lorre, Zak Penn, and Bill Prady, the series follows comic book store owner Stuart Bloom after he accidentally breaks a device created by Sheldon and Leonard, triggering a multiverse crisis.

Kevin Sussman reprises his role as Stuart alongside Lauren Lapkus as Denise, Brian Posehn as Bert, and John Ross Bowie as Barry Kripke, with the story introducing alternate-universe versions of familiar Big Bang Theory characters.

Commenting on the renewal, Amy Gravitt, EVP, HBO Programming and Head of HBO & HBO Max Comedy Series, said:

“We’re delighted with how this hilarious, genre-bending show from Chuck, Zak, and Bill has connected with the audience, both devotees of The Big Bang Theory and new fans alike. Along with everyone else, we can’t wait to see the worlds they conjure for these beloved characters next season.”

Channing Dungey, Chairman and CEO of Warner Bros. Television Group and WBD US Networks, added:

“Chuck, Zak, and Bill delivered something truly special with Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, a completely original take on one of the most beloved franchises of all time that captures the unique essence that made The Big Bang Theory so special. It’s been an absolute joy to see audiences embrace this next iteration so passionately, and we can’t wait to continue exploring the multiverse in season two.”

Stuart Fails To Save The Universe Season 2 is slated to premiere in summer 2027 on HBO Max.
