It’s been six months since Facebook rolled out Facebook Watch, its vertical featuring original series from dozens of publishers and companies like Discovery Communications, Hearst and Quartz.

Make that a handful-plus-one: Facebook has given a rare renewal to one of its Watch shows: We Need to Talk, a relationship advice series hosted by Catfish creator Nev Schulman and his wife Laura Perlongo.
