The story centers on Inspector John Marlott.

Marlott is eager to track and find the person who committed this unspeakable crime.

As of January 27, 2025, The Frankenstein Chronicles has not been cancelled or renewed for a third season. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Because we won’t know viewership rates, unless they decide to release them, this is where I’d usually say it’s hard to predict whether Netflix will cancel or renew The Frankenstein Chronicles for season three. And that it is, but the situation is even more complicated than usual.
The first two seasons of this British drama premiered on ITV Encore — a British network which will become an on-demand platform, in Spring 2018. In October of 2015, A&E originally picked up the US rights to the first season, but never ran it. Finally, in December of 2017, Netflix picked up the global rights, but Variety reports distributor Endemol Shine International has already licensed it in some markets. Reportedly, Netflix will eventually get those markets too, once those deals have expired.
The bottom line: Netflix could pick up additional seasons, should it perform well for them. We’ll just have to wait and see. For now, I’ll keep an eye on the trades, update this page with breaking developments, and seek a less complicated supper.

This show is awesome. Need a season 3 for sure.
Yes for a third season!
Third season, please!!!
Please make Season 3!!! This is a great show
Please renew! I LOVE this show and I watch so little television. Rarely does a show like this come along that could make me a convert.
I am enthralled by the Frankenstein Chronicles. I love the music and the setting is awesome. Please bring us a third season. There are not enough great period pieces like this!!!!
We love this series. It’s interesting, intriguing, great production value, terrific performances and characters. Series 3 yes yes yes!
Season 3 yes! Love this series.
really “dig” this series…bring on Season 3!
3rd season would be nice to catch the rest of the guilty parties
We’re hooked!!!! Great acting, such interesting characters and story line. When Sean Beans’s character died I said that’s it, I’m not watching another show, but then something brilliant happened, and the writers brought hm back even stronger and more passionate. Love the other side connection. It’s our favorite show!!! I’m so glad we just started Netflix. There is little need for cable any more.
I love this show, and hope to see more of this quality on television in the future. This particular take on Frankenstein is believable, well-written with a great through-line; the acting is superb. The faces, costumes, makeup and cinematography are artistic triumphs for television. Looking forward to a season 3 with new surprises…
Please great show would love to se Swanson 3456789 etc
Great cast & love the series! Must be renewed!!!
I say but the first two seasons were just ever so charming. Dare say that I could easily watch a third forth and fifth quite easily if thou wouldst only produce them. Excellent acting, time period. Only downside is the mere 6 episodes, but 6 a season is better than naught.
