What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on The CW television network in the United States, Dead Pixels stars Alexa Davies, Will Merrick, Sargon Yelda, Charlotte Ritchie, David Mumeni, and Noush Skaugen. It revolves around a trio of friends and their passion for playing an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game). The show follows gamers Megan “Meg” Jeffries (Davies), Nicholas “Nicky” Kettle (Merrick), and Usman (Yelda) who are obsessed with the online fantasy game “Kingdom Scrolls.” Meg would happily cut a date short to go home and defend Castle Blackfinger. Nicky thinks the miscasting of Vince Vaughn as Tanadaal in the “Kingdom Scrolls” movie is an international outrage. And Usman has made a plywood lid for his child’s playpen — so he can play the game in peace. As the show begins, Meg meets a new guy named Russell (Mumeni). The series is split equally between the real world characters’ tragicomic lives and their computer-animated misadventures in the “Kingdom Scrolls” game.
Season One Ratings

Dead Pixels has been renewed for a second season which will debut July 18, 2021. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will The CW cancel or renew Dead Pixels for season two? The series originates on Channel4 in the UK and The CW licenses it (which costs less than making a show on its own). Dead Pixels was renewed for a second season in the UK but, the ratings may be so low for season one that The CW might not want it. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.
