Bookie will not be returning for a third season. Max has canceled the comedy from Chuck Lorre and Nick Bakay after two seasons. The season two finale aired on the streaming service on January 30th.
Sebastian Maniscalco, Omar J. Dorsey, Vanessa Ferlito, Jorge Garcia, Andrea Anders, Maxim Swinton, and Rob Corddry star in the comedy which follows a bookie as he deals with the legalization of sports betting in Los Angeles.
According to Deadline, a spokesperson for Max said the following about the cancellation of Bookie:
“For two seasons creators Chuck Lorre and Nick Bakay and their hilarious cast, led by Sebastian Maniscalco, made us laugh while pulling back the curtain on the world of sports betting/ We won’t be moving forward with a third season, but we are grateful to have worked with such a brilliant team on this laugh out loud comedy.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Bookie? Were you hoping for a third season?
It was so funny, I can’t believe they didn’t pick it up for a 2 nd season. They keep a lot of stuff that I’m never going to watch like that Oliver guy .
Some network will pick this up; they have to. It’s such a great show! It’s such a great respite from murders, kidnappings, and rapes that flood the networks these days.
Another fun show canceled. I don’t know why we get attached to shows anymore. One, there are so few episodes to begin with. And two, most don’t get more than one or two seasons. Dang.
First I’ve heard that Sebastian was in a sit com. So sad it’s over. I’m sure he’s crushed. He’s a great comedian.
There made a mistake cancelling Bookie. It was a hilarious comedy that should have had a third season. Perhaps another network will pick it up.
