Popular true-crime podcast ‘Serial’ plans for 2 more seasons, beginning this fall

By The Associated Press

NEW YORK, N.Y. – “Serial” junkies, get out your sleuthing kits again. The wildly popular podcast is coming back with two new series.

In an email sent to “Serial” newsletter subscribers on Wednesday, producers said they hope to launch Season Two this fall and Season Three next spring. “We are hard at work reporting not one, but two distinct new stories,” they say.

Planning for a second season was a slam dunk after a very successful launch in which Sarah Koenig and Julie Snyder investigated the true-crime case of Adnan Syed, a young man imprisoned for life for killing an ex-girlfriend.

The podcast is a co-production of Chicago Public Radio’s WBEZ and “This American Life.”
