Joe vs. Carole Season 2 Storyline: What Can it be About?
The narrative mainly centers on the main characters, Joe and Carole. With one of them in prison, the potential season 2 will presumably not have a lot to explore. However, the next storyline could shift to Carole as she goes after several other private zoo owners. The story may not sound very interesting or as exciting compared to the first season. Because of this sole reason, the chances of getting a second season are bleak.
You can now watch season 1 of Joe vs. Carole on Peacock.
