Season 2 answered many fans’ burning questions about the previous season before dropping even more bombshell surprises.
“I was, like, left with cliffhangers. I was like, ‘Oh, my God,’” the Drop Dead Diva alum exclusively told Us Weekly In February 2022, ahead of the season 2 premiere. “I was really in it with everybody else. Oh, I hope everyone else will do the same. I can’t imagine they wouldn’t. It’s so good.”

Isaac hired Helen (Headley), a lawyer, to help him find his birth parents. This eventually led to them meeting Peggy (the newspaper editor).Brittany L. Smith). Peggy gave Isaac up to adoption after a one-night affair at a UN model conference. In the finale, viewers learned that Maddie’s ex-husband, Bill Townsend (Chris Klein), is the father.
“I think that she has really made her decision and put it to rest,” Swisher exclusively told Us The paternity shocker. “I think that this season, in particular, there is no turning back, and I think that offers an opportunity for Bill to kind of explore — like, go find yourself, Bill, turn this ship around. Because if there was that nagging sort of, like, possible forgiveness, I don’t think it would lend itself to that growth. Maddie needs to be able just to. [say], ‘This is not happening anymore.’”
