Roku Originals Books a Return Trip with Second Season Renewal of "Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross"

Renewed for a second season, the travel series fronted by the award-winning actor and Pattern CEO broke viewership records for Roku Originals.

SAN JOSE, Calif. - August 7, 2025 - Today, Roku Originals announced the greenlight of season two of "Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross," following the breakout debut of its first season. With record-breaking viewership, the series has become the most-watched unscripted Roku Original within the first two weeks of launch in terms of unique viewers.

Blending humor, heart, and honesty, Ross's solo adventures resonated with audiences around the world and sparked conversations about the joys of traveling alone and the power of self-discovery. Season 1, which followed Ross' journeys through Morocco, Mexico, and Spain, was widely embraced and became a social media sensation, leaving viewers eager for more. In Season 2, fans can look forward to even more meaningful moments and scenic escapes as Ross sets off to new destinations - with (many) checked bags in tow. All episodes will be available for free exclusively on The Roku Channel.

"'Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross' is the #1 unscripted show in Roku history, and now we get to do it all again with a Season 2! Thank you to Roku for your incredible partnership and care with my show, and to the amazing team that made it all possible. But the biggest thank you goes to everyone who has watched, embraced, and shared my journeys. The way the show is resonating feels truly special - all of the comments, the conversations, the connection... my cup runneth over. So here's to all the solo travelers out there, the aspiring solo travelers, those who share in the joy of solo travel by watching me do it and, of course, to my fellow over-packers! There's so much more to see and do - the world is our oyster! I can't wait to see where I'll be going next and to bring all of you along." said Tracee Ellis Ross.

"Tracee Ellis Ross has set a new gold standard for unscripted storytelling," said Brian Tannenbaum, Head of Roku Originals. "Her show didn't just perform - it soared. The response from our streamers has been overwhelming, and we're deeply grateful to have Tracee returning to guide us through another season filled with heart, purpose, and adventure."

"'Solo Traveling with Tracee Ellis Ross' has struck a powerful chord with audiences, blending inspiration, culture, and authenticity in each destination. We're thrilled to bring it back for another season, with even more of what viewers love: deep stories, bold adventures, and Tracee's signature spirit that continues to empower, explore, and entertain,." said Olivia LaRoche, Head of Alternative Originals.

The first season was produced by Joy Mill Entertainment, Artists First, and Story Syndicate. Tracee Ellis Ross, E. Brian Dobbins, and Anna Chai serve as executive producers. Adriana Ambriz and Caroline Soss serve as co-executive producers. Dan Cogan, Liz Garbus, Jon Bardin, Tommy Coriale, Kate Barry serve as executive producers for Story Syndicate.
