What’s This TV Show About?
A SundanceTV anthology series based on the Jon R. Lansdale novels, Hap and Leonard stars James Purefoy as Hap Collins and Michael Kenneth Williams as Leonard Pines — lifelong best friends. Returning as season regulars are Tiffany Mack as Leonard’s lawyer, Floria Grange, along with Cranston Johnson as Detective Hanson. Season three, Hap and Leonard: The Two-Bear Mambo, also stars Louis Gossett Jr., Corbin Bernsen, Andrew Dice Clay, Laura Allen, and Curtis Harding.
The darkly comedic, crime drama unfolds in 1989, in East Texas, just prior to Christmas. Hap and Leonard set off to find Florida, who has gone missing in the Klan-infested town of Grovetown. With an epic storm impending, Hap and Leonard are soon confronted by a cast of characters Sundance says is, “…so tough they could chew the bumper off a pickup truck.” This gang includes a questionable sheriff, as well as the leader of the Caucasian Knights. “The boys learn that the good guys don’t always win, and nobody beats Mother Nature,” according to the network.
Season Three Ratings
The third season of Hap and Leonard averaged a 0.04 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 200,000 viewers. Compared to season two, that’s down by 20% in the demo and up by 15% in viewers. Learn how Hap and Leonard stacks up against other SundanceTV TV shows.
On May 15, 2018, Hap and Leonard was cancelled. Could it return for a fourth season one day? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will SundanceTV cancel or renew Hap and Leonard for season four? It’s really hard to say. Viewership is up but the numbers are really small. I suspect this show’s survival prospects have a lot to do with other factors, including if the talent wants to continue making another season. I think it will be renewed but it could easily be cancelled. I’ll update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free Hap and Leonard cancellation or renewal alerts.
