Legally Blonde legend and White Lotus Emmy-winner Jennifer Coolidge will be back as realtor and chum Karen Calhoun.\u00a0We know Noma Dumezweni, who stars as private investigator Theodora Birch, is unlikely to return \u2013 unless in flashback form \u2013 as she sadly dies of liver cancer.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What could happen in The Watcher season 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Watcher\u2019s finale featured Karen running away from 657 Boulevard screaming after seemingly encountering The Watcher \u2013\u00a0 although what we know from the real-life case is that The Watcher has never been identified.<\/p>\n<p>The real-life Broaddus family \u2013\u00a0 who inspired the Brannocks \u2013 moved out of the house after five years in 2019. A new family moved in and the Broaddus family passed along the letters they received so they would be able to identify the writing if they were to ever receive the same threatening mail. The new family haven\u2019t received anything.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Is there a trailer for The Watcher season 2?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019re waiting to see if The Watcher season 2 will be confirmed by Netflix.
