The battle is over at Paramount Network. The cable channel has cancelled the 68 Whiskey TV series so, there won’t be a second season.
A comedy-drama series, 68 Whiskey follows a multicultural band of Army medics stationed in Afghanistan on a base nicknamed “The Orphanage.” Together, the medics navigate a dangerous and sometimes absurd world, relying on comradery, various vices, and, occasionally, a profound sense of purpose to carry them through. The cast includes Sam Keeley, Jeremy Tardy, Gage Golightly, Cristina Rodlo, Beth Riesgraf, Lamont Thompson, Nicholas Coombe, and Derek Theler, with Usman Ally, Lamont Thompson, Artur Benson, and Aaron Glenane in recurring roles.
The first season of 68 Whiskey averaged a 0.10 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 499,000 viewers. Paramount Network has few original scripted series so it’s difficult to tell what is considered a success. The recently wrapped third season of Yellowstone averaged a 0.75 demo rating with 3.91 million viewers. Meanwhile, other series have drawn numbers that are closer to 69 Whiskey’s. Paramount does have a new series, Coyote starring Michael Chiklis, in the pipeline.
What do you think? Did you watch the first season of the 68 Whiskey TV series? Would you have watched season two on Paramount Network?
I loved this series. None of my friends hadn’t heard about it so I got them watching it. Loved it. So much better than some of the weird series out now. Might another network pick it up?
both my husband and I were looking forward to another season
I loved the show, I wish they would continue.
Too bad, I really enjoyed the show
Loved the show. Could not believe it was cancelled
OMG nooooooooo!!! :((( I really loved this show. I was so surprised by how much I did! Such great characters, such great moments, such great stories!! Especially great female characters that I loved watching. 🙂 I’m rewatching it right now and 2nd time through, I’m noticing so many little awesome things. Devastated to learn there’ll be no more. 🙁
I was looking forward to season 2, and yes I watched the whole season 1. I like the show
Disappointed no 2nd season…..was looking forward to watching. Just left hanging!
My husband and I loved 68 Whiskey. We’ve been looking forward to a second season, PLEASE BRING IT BACK.
Man yall wouldn’t know good television if it was in your lap slapping you!! Me and my family loved this show my wife can’t stand army shows and I got her watching this so please give us a season 2
I was really looking forward to seeing season 2!! Have been waiting for it, and I got all my friends hooked on it!! Ugh. With so few shows on air that understand that there are viewers older than 13, it was wonderful to have Paramount give us Yellowstone and 57 Whiskey! Now they took one away. Please, please bring it back. I love the Paramount network and will continue to watch it. Just very disappointed.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
we have watched season one several times just waiting for season two. please give us more, we thought it was a great show. I’m sad if it doesn’t return.
We were so looking forward to the second season. This was very entertaining. Would hope that you would reconsider bringing it back. We had many friends also watching along with us all were looking forward. This is very disappointing.
It was a great funny but serious show, we loved it! Please bring it back! Not much worth watching on tv anymore these days….
