There won’t be a sophomore season for Netflix‘s high school zombie series. The streaming service has opted to cancel the Daybreak TV series after one season of 10 episodes.
The Daybreak TV show stars Colin Ford, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Sophie Simnett, Austin Crute, Gregory Kasyan, Krysta Rodriguez, Cody Kearsley, Jeanté Godlock, and Matthew Broderick. Based on the graphic novel by Brian Ralph, the series follows Josh Wheeler (Ford), a 17-year-old high school outcast who’s searching for his missing girlfriend, Sam (Simnett), in a post-apocalyptic Glendale, California. He’s joined by a ragtag group of misfits that includes a pyromaniac 12-year-old Angelica (Lind) and Josh’s former high school bully, Wesley (Crute). The group tries to stay alive amongst the horde of gangs of evil jocks and cheerleaders turned Amazon warriors, zombie-like creatures called Ghoulies, and everything else this brave new world throws at them.
The series launched on October 24th of this year and, it would seem, didn’t attract enough viewers for Netflix to want to order a second season. The streaming service often makes a decision on a show’s fate some four or six weeks after a release. Series co-creator and executive producer Aron Eli Coleite revealed that the show had been cancelled via Twitter.

What do you think? Did you enjoy the Daybreak TV show? Are you disappointed that it’s been cancelled? Would you have watched season two?
So sad to hear there won’t be a season 2 of Daybreakers.
We want season 2!!! Don’t do this to us. It was a great show and a unexpected ending, don’t leave us with that! Bring on the next season!
Is there a season 2 why cancel it for
I’m in my 40s, and have watched this with my 9 y/o son. Maybe inappropriate for some, but it’s highly intellectual and entertaining and I’d rather him be watching this rather than YouTube videos. We were so excited for Season 2! We may have to read the graphic novels now…
I literally JUST finished bingeing season 1. i was so ready for a season two i’m so sad:(
I really enjoyed the show, it was 1 of the best shows I’ve seen and talk about a twist of an ending I really didn’t see it coming. I was really looking forward to a second season, so are so many people. **** blows man.
Finally a show where the characters aren’t absolutely good or bad.. There’s a lot of laughter, sadness. Very life-like. Is the average viewer really too dumb for this show?? I don’t see any other reasons why this was cancelled. It’s just different to other shows.I really liked it.
P.S.: I dislike Zombie shows in general.
Would totally have watched and loved a second season. Sad it won’t be returning
I 100% agree it was so good, and I would love a Sophomore season
This is crazy I was really hopeing for season 2
I literally just binged season 1. The writing was so good (Once you look past all the extreme PC cringe). The twists, and the story telling. It didn’t come out too long ago so I don’t understand the reason behind canceling it before it’s had time to gain any traction. There are plenty of occult movies, games, tv shows, etc that get popular AFTER the fact that it’s been out for awhile. This is definitely one of those shows. It’s going to be so popular with time… The characters really grew on you which is pretty rare… I don’t understand… Read more »
Please, please, please reconsider!!! I absolutely LOVED this show and as soon as i finished binge watching season one i immediately googled to see when the next season was going to air only to have my heart broken! It can’t end like this!
Loved season one and was disappointed to hear it was cancelled. We would definitely continue watching if it returns.
This is lame as hell it was a great show and had a awesome storyline. It seems like every time a decent show comes out it is canceled why is this?
So I was browsing through netflix attempting to find a show to watch. I found DayBreak and the trailer really got me interested. Im not the type of person to actually FINISH a tv show, but I could not get enough of this show. I laughed, I cried, and over all i absolutely loved season one. Please reconsider!!
I loved daybreak only started watching it yesterday and I was hooked on it my favorite was Miss crumble and also sam but I am very sad that there’s no more season
Im sad there wont be a season 2, I wanna see what was going to happen they did this **** with ash vs evil dead
