Bert Kreischer's scripted work has become the part of his career that runs on the longest clock. The tours move fast and the podcasts move faster, but a television season takes most of a year to get from a greenlight to a screen. That year is now mostly spent. The second season of Free Bert, the Netflix comedy built around a heightened version of Kreischer and his family, finished production this summer and has moved into post.
Greenlit in March
Netflix ordered the second season on March 16, a little over two months after season one premiered. TVLine was first to report it, and showrunners Jarrad Paul and Andy Mogel described the assignment about as well as anyone could, thanking Netflix for "giving us the chance to continue the freeing of Bert."
Production stayed in Georgia, the same as season one, which shot all over metro Atlanta including at Woodward Academy in College Park and on the golf course at Stone Mountain Park. Rodney Ho covered the Georgia end of it for the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Going back to the same city with mostly the same crew is the sort of thing that never makes a headline and makes the work better.
That's a Wrap
Cameras cut at the end of July. Matthew Del Negro, who recurs in the cast, posted the wrap from set, thanked the Atlanta crew, and included the part everybody actually wants to know.
So that is season two. Written, cast, shot in Georgia, and now in the hands of the editors. New episodes on Netflix in 2027.
