How Shrinking Season 2 Addresses Jimmy's Unorthodox Therapy Explained By Creators

Shrinking's Jimmy Laird has an unorthodox approach to therapy, the consequences of which will be explored in season 2 of the Apple TV+ series. Season 1 received critical acclaim, including for the performances of Segel, Harrison Ford, and Gaby Williams, with the latter two playing Jimmy's fellow therapists, Paul Rhoades and Gaby.

Segel : We wanted to be honest about the fact that Jimmy was doing an unorthodox approach to therapy, and that there are consequences to that. There are reasons that people aren't out there doing this. So he's going to have to reckon with the good and the bad of that approach and refine how he goes forward.

Shrinking's Season 2 Approach Will Improve On Season 1 Season 2 Can Have A Better Tonal Balance Close Despite its often delightful comedy, Shrinking season 1 explored serious issues, including Jimmy grieving his wife's death and Grace being abused. At times, Shrinking's generally lighthearted approach did a disservice to the complex nature of these stories.

This should create a more effective balance between the show's comedy and drama, a balance in season 1 that sometimes leaned too precariously into comedy. It is important that the show is not simply condoning Jimmy telling his patients what he really thinks and will focus on the consequences of his actions, and what Donny's death means for Jimmy.
