Telly’s Take
Will Starz cancel or renew Counterpart for season three? I’d like to think that it will get a third season renewal. The ratings were very low but have been starting to climb. I will keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page from time to time. Subscribe for free alerts on any

This is a great show! It’s too bad that Starz, which only has a small handful of good shows in their line-up, would drop a winner like “Counterpart”. Let’s hope that someone who understands this show will pick it up!
Agree with many here. Don’t leave me hanging. I think I’m still on the “other” side.
I loved the show…and, I loved the season 2 finale. I really hope someone will take on another season. Its a fabulous, intelligent show, that explores human nature…a refreshing change to the bubblegum shows that are around today. A+ in my book!!
Sadly most people these days have a very small attention span, if things aren’t blowing up every few minutes… This show was a true gem in a sea of brainless garbage.
This show is amazing. Intelligent plots and dialogue, fantastic acting. I will follow it ANYWHERE
Please don’t cancel this show!! Anything that takes a patient intelligent mind is always taken away.
I honestly think hiding such a quality drama like Counterpart away behind an offer or charging premium rates is a mistake. Shows like this would greatly enhance the reputation of Prime as a content provider and boost ratings of many other programmes. Not only that but it would also create an army of fans for a show that could potentially fade into obscurity. A real shame. On the other hand. The ending is pretty difficult to come back from with any real integrity. A danger of creating a ‘Shark Jump’ moment.
It’s a great show with some brilliant and complex plot twists. Too bad most people are too dense for this complexity. Hopefully it will get picked up by someone like Netflix. If a ****** series like Lucifer can do it, Counterpart should be able to do it without much effort.
Really wonderful show. I’d love to see a 3rd season. I’m not happy with Starz canceling this.
Please don’t cancel Counterpart! I love that show.
An amazing series !! Please continue with Howard , Emily , Clare and Peter!!!
