With the release of XO, Kitty season 2, Netflix provides the perfect reminder to check out one of the streaming giant’s best rom-com films of all time, which came out seven years ago, and its two sequels. When it comes to romantic comedies on Netflix, there’s no shortage of options, with a range from so-bad-they’re-good to top-notch writing. The options aren’t limited to just movies either. A number of popular rom-com TV series have come out on Netflix, including the show XO, Kitty.

A year and a half after the show’s debut, XO, Kitty season 2 has finally released on Netflix, jumping to number 1, ahead of Squid Game season 2 and American Premieval. The much-awaited sophomore season continues the story of Kitty Song-Covey as she attends the Korean Independent School of Seoul, but it also includes fun nods to the movie that started the franchise – To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. The 2018 film – which holds an impressive 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes – and its two sequels are the perfect watch after binging XO, Kitty season 2.

Peter Kavinsky And Margot Song-Covey Make Cameos In XO, Kitty Season 2

To All The Boys’ Cameos Are A Reminder Of How Great The Characters Are

The cameo of Noah Centineo’s Peter Kavinsky is an exciting addition to XO, Kitty, seven years after the original To All The Boys movie released. Centineo brings back the character’s lovable, goofy charm that’s present throughout the movie trilogy, feeling like a warm hug for fans. It’s easy to come out of the XO, Kitty appearance wanting To All The Boys 4, which isn’t likely since the source material for the movie franchise is only three books. The next best option is rewatching the movies.

[Margot’s] appearance in XO Kitty is just a reminder of the lovable nature of what’s arguably the most underappreciated character from the original series.

The second XO, Kitty cameo from To All The Boys is Janel Parrish’s Margot Song-Covey. Margot is the oldest sister in the Song-Covey family, and her appearance in XO Kitty is just a reminder of the lovable nature of what’s arguably the most underappreciated character from the original series. Margot’s most prominent appearance is To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before, where her breakup with Josh is an integral part of Lara Jean’s fake relationship deal with Peter.

XO, Kitty Makes Many References To Kitty’s Role In The To All The Boys Trilogy

Kitty Played Matchmaker For Two Couples In To All The Boys

The biggest references to the To All The Boys movies in XO, Kitty season 1 are Kitty’s past successes as a matchmaker. Kitty takes credit for causing Lara Jean and Peter’s relationship since she sent out the love letters. Daniel Covey and Trina also appear onscreen happily married, which is another reference to Kitty’s meddling ways. XO, Kitty season 2 continues these references as the titular main character learns about her mom’s family’s long history of working as professional matchmakers in Korea. While visiting, Peter also reminds her that she’s responsible for the best thing in his life – his relationship with Lara Jean. The continued references in XO, Kitty serve as a reminder to rewatch the original movie trilogy, where Kitty constantly gets into other people’s relationships. Ultimately, her most annoying trait in the movies ends up being her superpower in the spinoff.
