NEW YORK, Oct. 22, 2026
Season 2 Premieres Weekend Mornings Starting Saturday, January 9
NEW YORK, Oct. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hearst Media Production Group (HMPG), in partnership with Kidde, and producer Epic Entertainment and Media Group, today announced the renewal of Home for Good for a second season. Following a successful first season that brought home-and-life safety education to viewers nationwide, the series will return to ABC stations nationwide on Saturday, January 9 as part of the “Weekend Adventure” educational/informational (E/I) programming block.
Hosted by Art Edmonds, Home for Good is a home renovation series honoring people who make a difference in their communities. Each half-hour episode transforms a room or personal space to better serve people who dedicate their lives to helping others. Season 2 will continue to feature first responders while bringing more community champions and service workers into the spotlight, including educators, mentors and volunteers who serve families in need.
The new season will feature people whose work takes many forms, including a firefighter supporting families of children with autism, a teacher whose students bring comfort to young cancer patients, a volunteer who provides food and supplies to people experiencing homelessness, and a mentor who created a free life-skills program for local youth.
The show will also continue its partnership with series’ sponsor Kidde, North America’s #1 home fire safety brand1. Season 2 will combine inspiring stories of community service with practical home- and life-safety education, helping viewers identify everyday risks and take action to better protect the people, pets and homes they care about most.
“For more than 100 years, Kidde has helped families protect what matters most,” said Isis Wu, president of Kidde’s Global Residential Fire & Safety business. “Through Home for Good, we’re able to celebrate people who strengthen their communities while helping families better understand the fire, carbon monoxide and other safety risks they may face at home. By combining inspiring stories with practical education, we’re empowering people to take simple steps that can help make every home a safer home.”
“We’re excited to bring Home for Good back for a second season,” said Bryan Curb, president of HMPG. “The series shows what giving back looks like through the people who serve their communities, while giving viewers practical fire and CO safety information they can use at home. That combination reflects the value of E/I programming: stories that educate, inform and offer a meaningful benefit to audiences.”
HMPG’s current program portfolio comprises more than 30 original series and hundreds of hours of content annually on leading broadcast networks and station groups and on connected TV and streaming platforms. It has a library of 85 series (6,000 episodes) and its content can be found in 100 countries.
