Netflix has ordered another season of the new Queer Eye original series, alongside renewals for a few other unscripted originals.

Alongside the Queer Eye season-two order, Netflix has given second seasons to Dope, a docuseries filmed from the perspective of dealers, users and the police; Drug Lords, which features the stories of history’s most notorious kingpins, their enforcers, and the men and women who’ve sworn to bring them down; and Nailed It!, hosted by Nicole Byer and Jacques Torres. Also coming back for a second run is The Toys That Made Us, in which the minds behind history’s most iconic toy franchises discuss the rise—and sometimes fall—of their billion dollar creations.

“These series are indicative of what we’re trying to accomplish for Netflix unscripted: working with world-class producers to create the best unscripted shows on television,” said Bela Bajaria, the VP of content for Netflix. “These series elevate the genre with innovative takes on familiar formats. They deliver immersive and nuanced stories. They elicit so many emotions from viewers, from tears of laughter to tears of joy—and that’s just Queer Eye.”
