Now it appears that fan and critical reception did the trick, and The OA will be producing a second season on Netflix.
The OA released its eight episode season in December, and was met with favorable critical reception, as well as comparisons to Stranger Things.
The finale left us with a fairly controversial ending, with the question of a second season still very much in the air.
While Stranger Things was the undisputed breakaway series of Summer 2016, Netflix had more than one fantastic sci-fi drama premiering on the streaming service.
