In an attempt to generate Oscar buzz, Mackenzie secures Cary a New York Times feature that profiles his life. When the New York Times writer wishes to meet with Cary’s friends, Cary realizes that he does not have any. Brooke is determined to prove that Lance hired a publicist for his People Magazine appearance. She breaks into Lance’s apartment in prosthetics to check his emails, but finds no evidence. While trying to quietly leave the apartment, Brooke unintentionally starts a fire; Lance manages to safely evacuate everybody inside the apartment. Brooke is overjoyed to learn that Chase’s mental health telethon has received a Peabody Award. In Ohio, Pat bonds with her friend’s kids.

Cary’s mental health starts to deteriorate as he grows obsessive over winning an Academy Award. Angered that Mackenzie is not answering his calls, Cary tracks down Mackenzie’s house in the Hamptons and shows up outside her door, demanding to know why she isn’t responding. Mackenzie lambasts Cary for his behavior, snapping Cary back to reality. Upon realizing how his actions have affected others, Cary breaks down. After staying overnight at Mackenzie’s place, Cary calls Pat and informs her that she doesn’t need to fund the movie, as he plans to leave the project altogether. Cary also sees a news story about Lucas, who has been found walking naked down the road in a confused and disoriented state; it is revealed that Lucas is actually married. Cary tries to make amends with Curtis, who is celebrating his birthday at a beach house in the Hamptons. Curtis forgives Cary and the two mend their friendship. While walking the beach alone, Cary receives a call from Mackenzie, informing him that a director has been attached to the movie; Cary abruptly hangs up, uninterested. Brooke anticipates the Peabody Awards ceremony, but things go wrong when Pat and Chase receive massive backlash online; Chase, for exploiting people struggling with mental health for his album sales, and Pat, for her deleted tweets highlighting her negative thoughts on Ohio. To the family's shock, Brooke decides to take the fall for Pat and Chase, publicly claiming that she was the one responsible for the tweets. She also releases a statement on Pat and Chase’s respective Twitter accounts firing Brooke as their manager. After the ceremony, Brooke reunites with Lance, and they reflect on their relationship; Lance commends Brooke for helping her family, and reveals that he did hire a publicist for People Magazine. The two rekindle their relationship, sharing a passionate kiss in the rain. In a post-credits scene, Brooke discovers from Streeter that numerous celebrities want her to represent them, as she had taken the fall for her own clients.

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.^[25] Kelly said they wanted to include depictions of the characters' sex lives.^[26] 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.^[25]

The pilot was sold to Comedy Central in late 2016.^[26] Schneider and Kelly hired Charlie Gruet, who was the director of photography of the television series High Maintenance.^[25] In October 2017, The Other Two received a full series order.^[27] The series was produced through executive producer Lorne Michaels' entertainment studio, Broadway Video.^[28] 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] In an article by The Hollywood Reporter in June 2023, it was confirmed that the series would be ending with the third season.^[29]

Casting

In October 2017, it was announced that Drew Tarver, Heléne Yorke, Case Walker, Ken Marino, and Molly Shannon had joined the cast.^[27]^[26] Kelly and Schneider discovered Walker on social media: Walker was popular on the platform Musical.ly and had over 400,000 followers on Instagram.^[25] 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.^[25] 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.^[11] Shannon was promoted to the main cast in season two.^[30]

Filming

Filming for the second season initially began in early 2020 but abruptly halted in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.^[31] Filming for the second season resumed on February 22, 2021, in New York and Los Angeles and concluded on May 9.^[32]

Complaints against Kelly and Schneider

The show's creators Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider were reportedly the subject of complaints to human resources over their behavior on set and in the writers' room. The allegations, which became known to the public just before the series finale in June 2023, include Kelly verbally abusing writers and overworking the crew and claims that Schneider enabled his behavior. A formal investigation was conducted during which Kelly and Schneider weren't allowed to be on set for a period, although they were formally cleared of wrongdoing and allowed to return.^[33] The toxic workplace environment was reported to have been an "open secret," with Tina Fey joking at an awards ceremony, "Nobody indulges writers like Lorne Michaels. Lorne, you have unleashed an army of monsters into the world. You know it, I know it, and the crew of The Other Two knows it."^[34]

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.^[35] Metacritic assigned the series a weighted average score of 81 out of 100 based on 35 critic reviews, indicating "universal acclaim".^[36]

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."^[37] Metacritic assigned the series a weighted average score of 79 out of 100 based on 16 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".^[38]

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."^[39]
