Fans of the Netflix series Dead To Me will be cheering today as the season season finally gets released - watch the trailer below and get excited.

We've been promised big things from this latest slew of episodes.

Creator Liz Feldman told The Hollywood Reporter: "Just like the rest of the show, it's not exactly what you think it's going to be. There's an evening of the score and there's a rebalancing that will take place and almost, in some ways, a role reversal.

"This show will always be a show that explores the dark sides and the light sides of grief, loss, forgiveness and friendship. So, suffice to say, there will be more darkness."

The second season will kick off straight after the end of the first instalment. So, if you haven't finished watching it you should probably stop reading now because there are some definite spoilers coming your way.

Jen (played by Christina Applegate) is dealing with the fact that she's just killed Judy's (Linda Cardellini) husband Steve (James Marsden). She's also dealing with the news that Judy and Steve were responsible for her husband's death in a tragic hit and run.

Yeah - it's wild.

Rather than report Steve's death, Jen and Judy decide they best thing to do is cover it up, despite neither of them knowing very much about how to dispose of a body.

When the trailer was released last month, it sent fans into a frenzy.

One person wrote: "Hell yes! Been waiting for season two ever since the credits started rolling at the end of season one."

Another posted: "I just wanna thank you for dropping this on my birthday. It's truly the highlight this year."

While a third added: "One of the best shows, acting and writing to come in years."

Critics have already given their thoughts and it looks like viewers will absolutely love it. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes has listed the second instalment at 90 percent fresh.

CNN's Brian Lowry wrote: "Dead To Me might have started with a fairly simple premise, but everything that's happened since is a reminder that regardless of what the original idea is, there's no substitute for smart execution."

New York Magazine/Vulture's Jen Chaney said: "Applegate continues to do the best work of her career as Jen, a role that enables her to explore moments of deep grief and fear while also playing to her strengths as a comedic actor who creates her best art in the medium of sarcasm."

Dead To Me season two lands on Netflix today (May 7).
