Unlocked: A Jail Experiment is a 2024 reality show that showcases an experiment conducted by Sheriff Eric Higgins. This show documented a unit of 46 jailmates freed from the confinement of their cell without any guards. Now that Season 1 is out, let’s find out if there is a Unlocked: A Jail Experiment Season 2 release date.
Here’s all we know about Unlocked: A Jail Experiment Season 2 and whether or not it’s coming out.
Is there a Unlocked: A Jail Experiment Season 2 release date?
Currently, there is no Unlocked: A Jail Experiment Season 2 release date as there has been no official announcement about a series renewal.
The first season of this completely new reality show received an announcement only a month before its release. If the show does well on Netflix, it could be possible for a second season to take place. However, the possibility of this seems bleak at the moment as the show has received criticism from viewers.
Also, a lot of things need to be taken into consideration before filming a second season. Higgins made sure of the safety of the inmates in the Pulaski County Detention Facility. However, making similar preparations in other facilities will require a lot of planning. Further, the audience’s reaction to the first season would play a big role in making the decision regarding the renewal, if at all the makers were considering it.
Forty-six of the jail’s inmates from Block H took part in this six-week social experiment. Along with a crew of cameramen and officers for safety, Higgins led this experiment and documented it in eight episodes.
Where will Unlocked: A Jail Experiment Season 2 be coming out?
Unlocked: A Jail Experiment Season 2 could come out on Netflix.
This is because the first season came out on Netflix and if the show is renewed, the second season too would come out on the same platform.
The official synopsis for Unlocked: A Jail Experiment reads:
“At an Arkansas detention facility, a sheriff implements a radical social experiment to grant men who are incarcerated more agency in this reality series.”
