Production
Development

A few months prior to being named co-head writers for Saturday Night Live's 42nd season, Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider spent a week in early 2016 developing the premise of The Other Two. They wanted the show to depict the introspection and self-doubt that twenty-somethings face, while incorporating elements of pop culture.[24] Kelly said they wanted to include depictions of the characters' sex lives.[25] Speaking to Vulture, Schneider said they intentionally wrote the character of Chase to be kind and innocent because it would subvert expectations of the story.[24]
The pilot was sold to Comedy Central in late 2016.[25] Schneider and Kelly hired Charlie Gruet, who was the director of photography of the television series High Maintenance.[24] In October 2017, The Other Two received a full series order.[26] The series was produced through executive producer Lorne Michaels' entertainment studio, Broadway Video.[27] The first season began streaming on HBO Max in 2021, where the second season streams exclusively, making the series a "Max Original".[4] The second season premiered on August 26, 2021, on HBO Max with a two-episode release.[5] On September 24, 2021, HBO Max renewed the series for a third season.[6]
Casting
In October 2017, it was announced that Drew Tarver, Heléne Yorke, Case Walker, Ken Marino, and Molly Shannon had joined the cast.[26][25] Kelly and Schneider discovered Walker on social media: Walker was popular on the platform Musical.ly and had over 400,000 followers on Instagram.[24] Tarver was brought in based on his comedic work at Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, while Yorke was cast after Kelly and Schneider had seen her work on High Maintenance.[24] It was announced in February 2020 that Gideon Glick would have a recurring role in the second season as Cary's new love interest, Jess.[9] Shannon was promoted to the main cast in season two.[28]
Filming
Filming for the second season initially began in early 2020 but abruptly halted in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[29] Filming for the second season resumed on February 22, 2021, in New York and Los Angeles and concluded on May 9.[30]
Reception
The Other Two was met with critical acclaim with its third season being the most acclaimed. The series has an overall approval rating of 97% based on 77 reviews on the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes.[31] Metacritic assigned the series a weighted average score of 81 out of 100 based on 35 critic reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".[32]
The first season has an approval rating of 94% based on 36 reviews, with an average rating of 8.52 out of 10, on the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes. The website's critical consensus reads: "With game leads and a wickedly witty sense of humor, The Other Two skewers and celebrates pop culture with equal aplomb."[33] Metacritic assigned the series a weighted average score of 79 out of 100 based on 16 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[34] The second season has an approval rating of 96% based on 24 reviews, with an average rating of 8.50 out of 10, on the review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes. The website's critical consensus reads: "More mature, but still hilarious, The Other Two's superb second season solidifies its place as one of TVs best comedies."[35]
