What’s This TV Show About?
Streaming on the Hulu paid subscription platform, Chance stars Hugh Laurie, Ethan Suplee, Greta Lee, Stefania LaVie Owen, Clarke Peters, Brian Goodman, Paul Schneider, Diane Farr, Michael McGrady, and Ginger Gonzaga. The psychological thriller centers on Dr. Eldon Chance (Laurie). A forensic neuropsychiatrist living in San Francisco, Chance finds himself drawn into perilous cases involving his patients. In season two, he is something of a changed man. Whether those changes are because of his traumatic brain injury, or due to the fact that he has killed someone, remain to be seen. Regardless, he and D (Suplee) are now on a crusade to rescue Dr. Chance’s patients from their victimizers.
On January 9, 2018, Chance was cancelled. Could it return in some form? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Because it they originally issued a two-season order, fans didn’t have to spend the first season wondering whether Hulu would cancel or renew Chance. Season three does not kick off with that certainty. Will the cast and crew want to continue, even if the streaming service is willing? It’s hard to predict the fate of streaming TV shows, unless their platforms decide to publicize their viewership. Although I have no strong gut feeling, I’ll keep an eye on the trades and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free updates on any Chance cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Do you think the Chance TV series should have been renewed for a third season? How do you feel, now that Hulu cancelled this TV show?
Loved the show – Hope they carry on with story line followup – All characters were portrayed perfectly by the actors.
Pretty well wrapped up in episode 10, so, though I really like the show and would continue to watch if there were a season 3, I have my doubts … . Enjoyed it all
I personally love this show (Laurie and Suplee are great together) but it was stretching reality and believability a lot more this season and it did not seem to get much support or publicity from Hulu this year. And it got almost no reviews or comments in the trades. The stars of the show aren’t even talking about it in their trade interviews. Therefore, unfortunately, my prediction is that it is done.
Do not cancel “Chance”! This is a great show and should be renewed.
I would love to see Chance continue, but season 2 ended so well, with no major cliffhangers that if season 3 were not meant to be I could be okay with that.
After watching the final episode of S2 I feel like the show made a decent job of tying off all the loose ends in case it wasn’t renewed. I really like short and sweet Streaming exclusives even if they’re short lived. They always pack the best punch. Chance was certainly one of those shows with a possibility for more. Either way, I enjoyed the ride!
I love this show! Needs to continue, please!
Chance deserves a renewal–and the opportunity to be seen by a larger audience. With little or no publicity, the second season especially has gained many dedicated fans. The overall high quality of the show, coupled with superb performances by Laurie, Suplee and emerging talent Stefania LaVie Owen make Chance compelling television.
Love this show!
Please don’t cancel

Yes, we need to end this mess and see what happens to the Killer!!!
Chance is intriguing, entertaining and a great watch! Hope upon Hope a third season.
It would seem highly unusual to end a series with so much left hanging. I hope it continues.
