Revision as of 08:42, 3 August 2024
Classic Season 2 is the second installment in the Guard Duty series, airing from April 9, 2022 until July 31, 2023. It was written and directed by Syp The Mighty, with Revoltge joining her to co-write its season finale. While Syp provided the music for the first three episodes for this season as well as its intro/outro themes, Revoltge returned as the primary composer beginning with Elsewhere, its fourth episode, after having done so in the first season's Sides episodes.
Upon its conclusion, Syp and Revoltge announced both a reimagining of this season as well as a followup were in development in Coming Soon, to be produced after Rat's Nest. The movie edit of this season aired on August 11, 2023, eleven days after it concluded. Elements of this season were later incorporated into Season 1, the reimagining of Classic Season 1, including select characters and plot points.
