Status: This show came and went with very little fanfare and did not make any noise in the streaming charts. A year after it premiered there has still been no word on its fate, so I am going to consider it cancelled. Series creator Nathan Pyle has indicated that he would like the show to carry on for additional seasons, but it does not appear that Apple TV+ will keep it going. Perhaps it could return at some point, possibly on a different venue, but I am counting it as one-and-done for now.
You can keep up with the renewal/cancellation status of this and all the current sci fi and fantasy shows with our Cancellation Watch Page.
So you have absolutely no evidence either way other than the fact that it’s been a while?
Generally if a show goes this long with no word on renewal, that indicates that it will not be continuing because the contracts for the cast and crew have likely expired. I did try reaching out to the creators of the show, but have not heard anything from them yet.
