Mercy Street aired its finale on PBS on Sunday night, and there is no word yet from the network if the series will return for a second season.
However, one member of the cast is hopeful that PBS will bring back the series for a second season, and he made that clear when he posted on his Twitter after the finale aired.
Jack Falahee stars on Mercy Street as Frank Stringfellow, and he sent the following message to his Twitter followers on Sunday night.
Thank you all for watching #MercyStreetPBS and supporting @PBS – you guys are rad. I hope we’ll be able to continue this journey together. X

Falahee also stars on ABC’s How to Get Away with Murder as Connor Walsh. Are you a fan of Mercy Street? Do you want a second season of this series? Tell us what you think.
I wanted to like Mercy Street, I really did. I love Masterpiece (ever since it was Masterpiece THEATRE), but find that this program isn’t up to snuff. Although they tried to make it like a BBC show by only having 6 episodes (the standard for most shows in the UK – even comedies). Reiterating what an earlier commenter said: The entire show set in three locations – and if they need a fourth, they probably change something around as quick as they can to compensate. Honestly, I’d only give it 2 stars and probably not renew it if I was… Read more »
I find it interesting that it is either an absolute love affair or disdain for this show. My take is that it is good, although it definitely has room to improve and tighten up the story lines. Six episodes is not enough to develop a series here in the US to its full potential, and in an era of television with so many sub-par comedies, dramas, reality shows, and cookie-cutter police shows, it’s refreshing to find a period piece that deals with a little known and poorly explored aspect of the Civil War. I think they really need to give… Read more »
Interesting. I found my way here to determine if the series is renewed. I hope it it. I love period pieces and the civil war period is neglected.
This show needs to be renewed. Please don’t leave us hanging.
This show just doesn’t have what it takes to be a hit. People are tired of the civil war. Scripts are ho-hum, acting is average at best except for Hannah James, who is the breakout star. Can only do so much at essentially two locations. Doesn’t have the scope of Downton, Poldark, Granchester etc.
I think this is one of those cases where people either love anything about the Civil War or don’t. I do not see it as all people being tired of the Civil War. As for the scope of the production, its premise limits its locations. Its setting is in a Union hospital, so naturally, that is where the bulk and majority of the series will be filmed. It needs more time.
Absolutely loved this show and truly hope we will more episodes! !
Excellent series. Bring back for more.
I hope Mercy Street is renewed. It’s an excellent show.
I loved watching Mercy Street. Please bring it back for another season. It’s a great show.
Please bring us Season 2 of Mercy Street! Love it!
Loved the series. Hope there is a second season.
Please renew!
Yeah, the final act was well paced and brought all the various pieces together nicely. More please!
Would love to see a second or third season. Characters are well written and the storyline is compelling. Please renew.
Please renew “Mercy Street”
Slow start but captured my attention and by finale, hooked! Please renew.
