‘North of North’ Begins Season 2 Filming as Netflix Teases Premiere Date

For those of you who haven't watched this Canadian series yet, North of North is a super funny, salt-of-the-Earth comedy set in the Canadian Arctic — it was also shot in Nunavut (Canada's largest and northernmost territory)! The show has earned a 100% fresh Rotten Tomatoes rating. This continues the global appetite for CanCon (Canadian content), following other Canadian hits like Schitt's Creek, Kim's Convenience, Sort Of and of course, Heated Rivalry.

As this other news article perfectly sums up:

Before “Heated Rivalry,” there was “North of North.” In all the kerfuffle over Canadian TV drama “Heated Rivalry,” it’s easy to forget that other Canadian shows have been hits with viewers outside [Canada]. But one of them, the CBC, APTN and Netflix comedy “North of North,” just announced the start of production on its second season.

The show follows a young mom, played by Anna Lambe, who attempts to build a new life in her tiny Arctic community of Ice Cove. The series also stars Maika Harper, Braeden Clarke, Jay Ryan, Mary Lynn Rajskub, Zorga Qaunaq, Bailey Poching, Nutaaq Doreen Simmonds and Keira Cooper.

The series is co-produced by Canada's CBC and Netflix, in partnership with APTN (Canadian broadcaster, the first national Indigenous broadcaster in the world). This series made its world premiere in Canada on Canada's APTN and CBC networks last January 2025 and then globally on Netflix in April 2025. Since it premiered, the series became CBC Gem’s (CBC Gem is CBC's streaming platform) most watched series since the launch of the streaming platform, the top new program on APTN Plus (APTN's streaming platform), and debuted in the top 10 in 33 countries on Netflix.

Against the backdrop of recent headlines concerning Greenland and country's right to sovereignty (as a Canadian, the thought of the Trump administration "annexing" my country is offensive), North of North brings a timely and essential cultural perspective to the conversation.
