New US drama The Cleaning Lady has been renewed for a second season.

Based on the Argentinian series La chica que limpia, the series stars Élodie Yung (Daredevil) as Thony De La Rosa, an undocumented Cambodian doctor who becomes a cleaner for a powerful crime syndicate, in exchange for medical care for her immunocompromised son, Luca.

“This heart-pounding, emotionally driven story has captivated audiences across all platforms with its empowering, suspenseful narrative about an undocumented worker forced to navigate the criminal underworld to save her ailing son’s life,” said Michael Thorn, president of Fox Entertainment. “The Cleaning Lady bravely and unapologetically takes on many of today’s most important social issues — something we’re proud to say is one of FOX’s long-time calling cards — and it’s all brought into sharp perspective by the powerful performance of our lead, Élodie Yung, and the entire cast. Thanks to the incredible talent of [executive producers] Miranda [Kwok] and Melissa [Carter] and our outstanding partners at Warner Bros., audiences have embraced this story and can now look forward to finding out what comes next for this devoted mother and her son when our show returns for its second season.”

  1. I watched this show and it was okay. As all shows like this one though it would have benefited from being on AMC or any one of the premium cable channels. Because you could tell it was trying to be grittier than what it actually ended up being, and that was simply due to the constraints of a commercial network in the U.S.
