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

IT WAS A GOOD SHOW IT WAS REALLY STARTING TOO GET GOOD DON’T STOP IT BRING IT BACK ON & AS COUNTERPARTS
We should be able to watch any series that is put out there … We shouldn’t be punished if we like a t.v. show bring ut back
If Starz was smart they would have promoted Counterpoint as a ‘reality show’ and it would have gotten more viewers. Those people live in an ‘alternative universe’ anyway. Not surprised it was canceled……..it was good!
For the most part it was a good show. They didn’t leave much to do in going forward in a season 3. Plus the evil woman wins out in the end. Downer
Hope the will make season 3. Can’t wait. If Starz will not pick it up. Can some one else please do. Its one of the best series.
OMG I will close the doors between me and starz before the virus in their programming department infects me.
Love the show. Please find a way to keep it alive.
Cancelled. 🙁
Very good acting with an intriguing storyline. Please renew as it’s so much better than many programs out there.
Please, please renew. Theres so little good sci fi out there. I think not enough people know about it. Like the Expanse.
This intelligent, compelling series really must be renewed for a third season. It is so well done I watch each episode multiple times to appreciate the intricacies.
Please keep this series alive. This is a breath of fresh air for those of us who really enjoy paying attention to something for an hour.
Hands down the best series I’ve ever watched. Love it!!!! Hoping for a season 3! JK Simmons is the bomb!!
I am another Melinda that loves the show. It is a smart show with brilliant actors. I would follow the show to another network. Starz had me on Sunday nights…too bad they canceled Counterpart.
I guess, after Fringe was cancelled, this is one of the best TV-show I am looking now. The science-fiction is an interesting area that has a chance to be our reality in future. So, that will be big awesome news about renewed the Counterpart for season 3.
The Ratings are awful because it is on 6 different times on Sunday night, when the new episodes premiere. There isn’t any way to get a real rating if people can watch it any time they feel like watching it. This is how they killed Ash vs. The Evil Dead. They did the exact same thing. What a disgrace. If the show isn’t renewed within the next 2 weeks, I would guess that they will cancel it.
I had to go back and watch season 1 again before starting 2. If not such a long time between seasons I’m sure 2 would have better ratings. May be a lot of people like me that have to rewatch to remember the details. Worth the time though and looking forward to 2 when I finish 1 again.
