Only my opinion mind but Granville has done a fine job sine taking over from the legendary Arkwright.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Agree but doesn't the show get more like Last Of The Summer Wine with every episode!

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Perhaps in some regards Telegramsam as l think with the older actors and actresses in it more the acting has more of a vintage quality to it.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I was thinking more about how the men get up to their capers and the women get together over a cuppa,the same as in Summer Wine. Still funny though.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Used to like watching Open all Hours, however Still Open All Hours is absolute garbage.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Vikings has been cancelled by History.

It was recently renewed for Season 6, which will now be its final season.
However, rumours are that the channel is plotting a spinoff series to continue the franchise.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I think it is the right time. I am glad they have ended it a season in advance with notice because it gives them time to wrap everything up properly and do justice to the characters. I have loved watching this series, the production quality is excellent, it has given me an insight into history and a culture I knew very little about and it is fascinating to see how other people/cultures perceive things and how they view things as being right and wrong.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Manifest has been renewed for Season 2.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Perhaps I should have duplicated my post from the Manifest thread to here.

I think that's what I'll do in the future then those interested will be updated at their earliest convenience from the same source with link.

BTW in the folllowing HBO trailer there's a GOT tease about as long as it takes to say Wrinterfell is yours your Grace (or thereabouts).

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

oh but but but (and I hate doing all this body language analysis stuff) Sansa does not look very happy about it. The tension is palpable.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Star Wars Resistance Renewed For Season 2.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Criminal Minds is ending, it has been renewed for a 15th and final season.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The First isnt getting a second season, Hulu have cancelled it.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Glad I hadn't started watching it. It was on my "to watch" list though.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Its another one I didnt like the look of (from trailers and description) and skipped.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I liked the idea of it but i hate Sean Penn as an actor, he is one of those people who doesnt really act because he is the same in every film and his "acting" style is only suited to certain roles. SFX reviewed it a couple of issues ago and said it was pants as well so it put me right off.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

l am surprised you are not a fan of Sean Penn as he has been superb in some of his flicks.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

SYFY has unusually (with its recent record) renewed The Magicians for a 5th season before season 4 the premiere.

https://variety.com/2019/tv/news/the...fy-1203114247/

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I dont know how it made it past season 1. I thought it was a snooze fest and the acting was terrible.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Well I think its been great, and am well pleased to see they renewed it again for Season 5.

(Season 4 kicks off tomorrow :))

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I gave it a few episodes and dropped it. Currently got nothing to binge so could get through 3 seasons of it.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

have you seen The Punisher?

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I did a few episodes of that too. Netflix might have saved where I left off so I can just resume. Watched some of Luke Cage and all of Iron Fist.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The Punisher is really good. It took me a few eps to get in to season 1 but season 2 is excellent and gets off on a flying start.

Without going through my entire list below are a few recommendations of current series which I can recommend and you might be interested in:

Agents of Shield
Altered Carbon
Cobra Kai
The Expanse
Fear the Walking Dead
Greys Anatomy
Homeland
Krypton
Lost in Space
Marvel's Runaways
Salvation
Seal Team
Stranger Things
The 100
The Gifted
Travelers
Vikings
Westworld
Walking Dead

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Suits got renewed for a final 9th Season.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Killing Eve has been renewed, and is filming, and currently scheduled to start broadcasting in the US in April. Not sure about a UK airdate though.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Grey’s Anatomy just goes on and on, its now been renewed for a 16th season.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

although they haven't said it I think the 16th season will be it's last. I read an interview with Ellen Pompeo last year just before the fall tv season started and she said she has had enough now, thinks they have explored and developed the character as much as possible and is in talks with Shonda Rhimes on how she can exit the show and how she thinks the entire series should end when the time comes.

The thing is, even though it is going on for 16 seasons, Greys has been superb from day one and there has never been a bad episode. It isn't my favourite series and it doesn't blow me away like GoT and Expanse does but it is the most consistent series I have ever seen in terms of quality. Every episode is excellent, the characters are great, the stories and the weekly medical drama is great and you can believe they are all surgeons and it is happening. I love the series and I recommend it to everyone and anyone. What's not to like?

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I tried it many years ago, but didnt like it.

Medical drama is not really my thing, seemed too much like a soap opera as well.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Marvels.The.Punisher as been cancelled.

FBI & Magnum.P.I have both been renewed for Season 2.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Magnum has been pretty good so far so no surprise there.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

where did you get that info from? I have googled it and cant find anything

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

thanks, I was expecting it. I just don't understand why they are dragging their heals on Jessica Jones; they know they are going to do it so why the delay?

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I've enjoyed Magnum as well.. Likeable characters. Good stories. Good action.

Not as serious as Hawaii Five-0 can be, but it's fun to watch. You also don't need to be an avid follower of Hawaii Five-0 to follow it (although I also love that series, so, I am). I also think it captures the spirit of the original well (although I would like to see Tom Selleck in to, even if it's just a cameo).

The trouble is, me enjoying a series isn't always a good indicator that it'll be renewed. I am happy to see this one has.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I loved the bit in the new series of Magnum (I think in episode 1, but might be in episode 2), where Magnum is getting tidied up after being in action (in Iraq/Afghanistan in the military Special Forces), and he has his hair cut, starts shaving off his facial hair, shaves off the beard and leaves the big bushy moustache, looks at in the mirror, and goes "nah!", and shaves that off as well... :D

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Yep, I'm loving it as well, and Five-0 (and the little character crossovers).

I believe they plan on a proper crossover at some point.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Yes having seen a few episodes now I'm a fan too!

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The CW has officially renewed pretty much all its main shows for another season.

Arrow, Black Lightning, Charmed, Legends of Tomorrow, Dynasty, The Flash, Legacies, Riverdale, Supergirl and Supernatural.

:hyper:

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I was really hoping Arrow was going to cancelled. They haven't learnt the Neegan lesson.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Well no one is forcing you to watch it.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Young Sheldon has been renewed for Season 3.

Legion has been cancelled.

And sadly (for me) Travelers has been cancelled.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I shall remedy that tout suite tonight if I win the euro millions. I want another season of 16 episodes to wrap everything up.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Damn to travelers as I have just started S3, is there any point me finishing it?

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Yes as they got the chance to wind it up rather than stop on a cliffhanger.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

yeah, they wrapped things up quite nicely and sort of started of fresh. I was looking forward to seeing where it was going.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The Simpsons get to keep going a little longer, renewed for two more seasons (31 & 32)

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Personally, I still like it, even though they have largely removed Oliver from the Arrow character. However, even if I didn't, I would just stop watching it. I wouldn't call for it to be axed. Not least because sometimes, when I've encountered a series where they've made a change that just hasn't worked, they've realised that and changed it. Axing the series sort of stops that.

For instance, I loved Buffy the Vampire Slayer. A lot of people didn't like Seasons 4 or 6. Season 4 introduced "The Initiative", a shady government organisation that took the series into a conspiracy thriller area that the writers didn't appear comfortable with. Season 6 made the series more soap like, which, again, a lot of people didn't like. Had they axed it after either series, we would not have seen some episodes that are arguably the best of the entire series.

That said, there have also been series where they've made a change that hasn't worked, not sorted it out, and there series has ended up being axed (Heroes being one example).

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

the problem is that they haven't realised. Diaz did my head in last season, he was such an improbable and OTT bad guy it did my head in, they stretched the story out unnecessarily and there were multiple opportunities the team had to capture him or kill him once and for all and they always let me go. I thought we had finally got rid of him at the end of the season but nope, they have brought him back again and no matter what he does or how many people he kills they just let him keep on going. I get the feeling they are always making the same mistake with Cicada in The Flash.

Season 4 of Buffy was my favourite. I don't want to sound too pervy but physically I thought she was absolutely perfect.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

While not actually cancelled, the Cosmos season 2 premiere has been postponed due to ongoing investigations into sexual misconduct allegations against Neil deGrasse Tyson.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Yes it finished up very well, glad I watched it until the end.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

AMC Cancels Into the Badlands, the series returns for its final 8 episodes on 24th March.

According to Deadline Hollywood: “the saga will climax in an epic battle to end all battles”

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

that's not a bad thing because I wondered where it was going last season. Hopefully the guys were given the heads up before or during filming so they had an opportunity to wrap it up nicely.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Project Blue Book Renewed For Season 2 By History

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Has anyone seen this ? I havent bothered with it so far.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Yes, it's well worth a watch. A good series so far.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Counterpart has been cancelled.

Marvels Runaways has been renewed for Season 3.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

FANTASTIC

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Fox have renewed Family Guy & Bobs Burgers.

Starz have apparently renewed American Gods for a 3rd season (in 2020) ahead of its Season 2 debut on March 10th.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

l thought American Gods was pretty good so that is good news.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Jack Ryan has already been renewed for a 3rd Season by Amazon.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Is it worth watching Season 3 of Daredevil if it hasn't been renewed?

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

By all accounts, probably not, I have not heard many good things said about it - I havent bothered.

---------- Post added at 18:00 ---------- Previous post was at 17:57 ----------

No surprise here - Jessica Jones has been cancelled by Netflix.

Doom Patrol has been renewed for a second season by DCU.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

If you've already watched and enjoyed seasons 1 & 2 then why not watch season 3?

I did and still enjoyed it.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

There are reports of the following (unconfirmed as yet).

The Umbrellas Academy getting a second season.

SWAT & Seal Team being renewed for Season 3.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Seal Team and TUA deserve it, not watched SWAT yet so no comment.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I was concerned that Season 3 may not end properly, but if it does then maybe i will.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

absolutely, I don't know if they heard about the other series being cancelled while they were filming but coincidentally everything gets wrapped up really nicely at the end of this season so it doesn't matter per se that it has been cancelled. If it gets picked up again on Disney's streaming service they will have an opportunity for a fresh start with new characters and not have to go back and finish certain aspects of the story.

If you have seen seasons 1 and 2 you should definitely see season 3.

sure do, I love Seal Team, the "realism factor" is superb.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Cannot disagree.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Netflix confirmed that Punisher and Jessica Jones have been cancelled also now.

I understand though there is still a third season filmed and yet to air.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

See posts 1430 & 1463 :D

Yes, JJ Season 3 is still waiting to be aired later in 2019.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The Man in The High Castle gets its fianl seqason this fall.

http://www.cancelledscifi.com/2019/0...fourth-season/

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Which is another way to say what I came to post, The Man in The High Castle has been cancelled. :D

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Nightflyers has been cancelled, the rating were abysmal.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Young Sheldon has been renewed for Season 4 now.

Currently airing Season 2, it was renewed for a third season a while ago, but this has now been extended to a forth season as well.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Altered Carbon Season 2 now in production.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Nice, I would love to know what the timelines is; whether they are hoping to have it ready for the fall tv season or whether it is going to be more like this time next year.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Chicago Med, Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D. have all been renewed by NBC.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Great news, especially about the last two.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Star Trek: Discovery has been renewed for Season 3.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been renewed for Season 7.
Strike Back has been renewed for Season 7 (Final Season).

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

ITV have renewed Vera & Endeavour.
The BBC has renewed Call the Midwife for two more seasons.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

That will make some of our family happy.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I enjoyed all of Buffy. It wasn't a perfect series, and had good and bad episodes in every season, but I liked it. I even liked season 6, because while I didn't think the analogy of the addiction to magic worked that well, Allison Hannigan did a good job of portraying bad Willow, and was clearly having fun.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Insiders at ABC have indicated that Agents of SHIELD has been cancelled.
While bad news for many, its not quite as bad as it first sounds, as both Season 6 (2019) & Season 7 (2020) are still due, thus making Season 7 the final season.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

yeah I read that the other day, I think Coulson leaked it in a press interview. I don't look at it as being cancelled, the series will be ending as planned after 7 seasons and the writers have got two years to ensure their vision comes to fruition, the characters are respected and story is wrapped up properly and they can plan everything meticulously like GoT and ensure it is done perfectly and in no way rushed. Very few series can say they are given this opportunity.

Arrow has been cancelled by CW.
Season 8 will be the final season, and will only consist of 10 episodes.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Halle flipping lujah

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Not your favourite show General?

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I used to enjoy it but the last couple of seasons have been really bad. The bad guy has been completely OTT and the main characters have done completely unrealistic stuff for the sake of drawing out the story. They should let the show die with dignity.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I am still enjoying Arrow. This 7th Season has been pretty good.

However as with a lot of shows once you get to 7-8 seasons then they can be pretty dead in the water.

I thought season 5 of Arrow was the worst and I did loose interest for a while.

At least it will end with a final shorter season. Especially with Crisis coming next year as the big crossover event with the other DC Arrowverse shows.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I could understand them wanting to keep it going for the sake of the DCU a couple of years ago but there is no need now, they are banging out new series left, right and centre.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I'm seeing it as the end rather than being cancelled. The show will end with Crisis on Infinite Earth's which is presumably where Oliver dies given his promise to the monitor. I'd much rather have it like that too than have it continue on with Emiko Queen.

With the existence of LoT it's unlikely the last time Amell plays the green arrow though.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

This is probably the only reason it got renewed, and why its only 10 episodes - its almost certainly going to finish on the crossover.

True, dont forget he could also appear in Supergirl or The Flash (even if he dies, they both have time travel capabilities).

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Netflix has renewed The Umbrella Academy for Season 2.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

I don't know what to make of it tbh, the premise was good but I thought it dragged on for a lot longer than it needed to and I felt like we didn't get enough super hero action. I would have liked to have seen them work together as a group a lot more and kick some ass. I don't know what the story plans are for down the road but hopefully once they have sorted Vanya out they can come together as a team and go on missions together.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The Blacklist has been renewed for Season 7.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Good news,I want more of this program.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

Pure nonsense- love it. S6 is going so well ATM.

Re: Renewals & Cancellations
 

The 100 has been renewed for Season 7.

Season 6 is due to start at the end of April.
