Because $2 bills are the least-used denomination, they're printed on an as-needed basis instead of every year.
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing publishes how many bills are printed in each fiscal year. They don't show specifically which date(s) are printed on the bills but it's possible to infer that from the series year.
1996: 51,200,000 (1995 series)
1997: 102,400,000 (1995 series)
2004: 121,600,000 (2003 series)
2006: 230,400,000 (2003-A series)
2012: (incomplete, 2009 series)
The gradual increase in demand has been attributed to a number of different factors, including the use of the denomination by group promotions, for payment of transit fares that have pushed to or over $2, and simply to increased awareness in a few parts of the country.
In any case there is no truth to any of the many rumors that the denomination is rare, has been discontinued, or is in some way connected with crime or religious curses.

5000 2 dollar bills are left in the world
There are. Billions of bills have been printed since 2009 but they all carry that same date. Remember, the date on US bills is a "series" date, not the date it was printed. A new series usually (but not always) is started when a new Secretary of the Treasury takes office, or in many cases, when there's a design change. The same date is used until the next change. Timothy Geitner was appointed as Treasury Secretary in 2009 and remained in office until 2013 so bills printed during his term almost* all carry that date. Jack Lew took office in 2013 so the next series will carry that date. (*) "Almost" all bills carry the same date because there's often an overlap, with new bills being printed at the same time production of the old series winds down.
