What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the Freeform cable channel, Beyond stars Burkely Duffield, Romy Rosemont, Michael McGrady, Jonathan Whitesell, Dilan Gwyn, Jeff Pierre, and Eden Brolin. The sci-fi mystery drama follows Holden Matthews (Duffield), who woke after a dozen years in a coma to find himself at the center of a conspiracy in a changed world. Season two kicks off with Holden thinking he has completed his mission within the Realm and that he and Willa (Gwyn) can live out normal lives. Soon though, he’ll have to question if that’s what he really wants and whether or not the Realm still poses a threat to him and his loved ones.
Season Two Ratings
The second season of Beyond averaged a 0.08 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 244,000 viewers. Compared to season one, that’s down by 48% and 56%, respectively. Learn how Beyond stacks up against other Freeform TV shows.
On March 30, 2018, Beyond was cancelled. While there will be no third season on Freeform, could it come back in some form? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Last year, after just a couple episodes aired, Freeform released the whole first season of Beyond online. Meanwhile, even though it earned low “linear” ratings, they picked it up for a second season. It’s not clear how much traditional ratings measures will matter to this Y.A.-targeted network, when its deciding whether to cancel or renew Beyond for season three. The traditional ratings were pretty terrible in season two so, if that’s the determining factor, this show is doomed. I’ll keep an eye on this series and will update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on any Beyond cancellation or renewal news.
3/30/2018 update: As expected, Freeform has cancelled Beyond after two seasons. Details here. Now, I must fly. I have dinner plans.

What do you think? Were you hoping that the Beyond TV show would be renewed for season three? Are you sorry that Freeform cancelled this TV series, instead?
It was an interesting show. I liked it. Was waiting for season 3 when I found out there wasn’t going to be one. They should at least do a season 3 and see what they can do to make the show better creative acting. Get it?
Thank god the terrible acting along with the horrible plots. I’m happy to see it come to a tragic end, especially with Willa and Luke,,,awful!!!
Bring the Beyond series back!!
Such a great show, sorry to see it end. Sirens doesn’t compare. Hope another company buys it and gives it better exposure. It could be a great show with a much bigger audience with the correct advertising.
Such a great show and great cast. Very sad to see it end. Sirens is awful. Bad decision. Hope some other company buys it and give it the advertising and more exposure. Could be a great story if it continues……
Wow was expecting a season 3:(
Why do Networks cancel a good show when it’s just getting good why can’t they just finish something and then cancel this is crazy. Now I won’t know what happens I hate this network
FREEFORM can’t cancel Beyond after season 2! It’s just NOW getting EVEN MORE interesting! THERE HAS TO BE SEASON 3!
Why is free-form sucking in their TV sections on getting rid of good TV shows and keeping shows that suck. First stitchers and then last man standing adding replacements for old actresses, and the a new actresses sucks, and look nothing like the old actress. Who replaces a short blunt/ ditzy brunette, for a dumb tall blonde?? … Whoever’s deciding freeforms tv shows should be fired. They clearly suck at their job in deciding what TV shows should stay in which ones should leave. I think the people who watch the shows should have a vote. Us the people.
I 100% AGREE WITH SARAH from her comments on 11/4/18!
They did the same thing with kyle xy the Network Freeform is bad i’m not watching them no more
If you guys dont stop taking away our favorites, I will start rewatching old shows that have minimum of 8 seasons like old star trek shows or something and quit wasting my time watching the new shows you cant keep on long enough to even finish!
Agreed.
PLEASE STOP CANCELLING THESE GREAT SHOWS INSTEAD OF LETTING US BECOME INVESTED IN THEM. I LOVE THE SHOW BEYOND. I AM A GRANDMOTHER AND MY WHOLE FAMILY ENJOYS IT SO WHY ARE U CANCELLING IT.? I TRUELY GETTING SICK OF HAVING MY HEART BROKEN EVERYTIME I INVEST IN A SHOW ONLY TO HAVE SOME CEO CANCEL IT!
Agreed! Same with the show stitchers.
Bring it Back!!! Bring it Back!!! Bring it Back!!! Beyond is my new favorite series and I’m so bummed it got cancelled. Those surveys are bogus! Don’t the producers know that no one watches TV like they did in the old days. We stream our favorite shows when it’s convenient for us to watch them. This series deserves a second chance. Kudos to the writers for creating interesting characters and an exciting story!
I loved every episode!
I need this show
Yes we need a Beyond season 3 you left us on a cliff hanger. Why did you do that to us. Please have a Beyond season 3 we like the show.
