What’s This TV Show About?
A PBS historical drama based on the memoirs of Jennifer Worth, Call the Midwife stars Jenny Agutter, Linda Bassett, Judy Parfitt, Helen George, Laura Main, Victoria Yeates, Jennifer Kirby, Leonie Elliott, Stephen McGann, Cliff Parisi, Annabelle Apsion, Max Macmillan, Trevor Cooper and Daniel Laurie. The post-WWII series centers on the midwives and nuns at Nonnatus House, in the Poplar district of London’s East End. The eighth season kicks off in 1964, and everyone is anticipating the latest Royal Birth.
Call the Midwife has been renewed through season 13 on PBS. Season 11 will debut on March 20, 2022. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Because American public television is supported by “Viewers like you,” rather than ads, ratings aren’t all that useful a measure for predicting whether PBS will cancel or renew Call the Midwife for season nine. As with many PBS TV series, this is originally a British program. In UK, Call the Midwife was renewed through season 11 on BBC One, back in in March of 2019, so it’s likely to be renewed by PBS, too. Still, I’ll keep an eye on the trades for any news about this series. Subscribe for free Call the Midwife cancellation or renewal alerts.
