Although its ratings were low next to broadcast network television shows, last year, the Happy! TV show was the second highest ratings-earner for Syfy. On the other hand, the cable network cancelled The Expanse, its third highest-rated show, so maybe we’re lucky to be here now. Can the second season of Happy! draw a bigger audience and cement its place in the Syfy lineup? Will Happy! be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A comedic Syfy crime drama with a whimsical touch of fantasy, Happy! stars Christopher Meloni with Patton Oswalt (voice), Lili Mirojnick, Medina Senghore, Ritchie Coster, Patrick Fischler, and Christopher Fitzgerald. The season two cast also includes Ann-Margaret and Big Show. Happy! centers on a former cop, Nick Sax (Meloni). As a hitman on the skids, a drunken and depressed Nick had his existence turned upside down by Happy (Oswalt), an imaginary unicorn, who is out to save the day. In the second season, Sax is trying to stay sober and do right by his family, but old nemesis Sonny Shine (Fitzgerald) is now on a mission to Make Easter Great Again (MEGA) with the help of his demented Easter Bunny henchman.

What do you think? Do you like the Happy! TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season on Syfy?
*6/5/19 update: Syfy has cancelled the Happy! TV show so there won’t be a third season, at least on this cable channel.
Happy is my favorite show on the channel. He goes away I go too.
So well done. Must have season 3!!
We look very forward every week to see it!!! we love it I hope they come up with season 3 cuz we are looking very forward to it coming please do not cancel this show it’s great!!!
Lmao this show is hilarious and a original classic i truly hope it continues
I want HAPPY! TO KEEP GOING!!!!! It has to rite? Maannnn I was just looking to see when season 3 is and now I’m worrying there won’t be one! Syfi cancel it and may as well get rid of their channel because it’s the only good show on the channel!
Please keep it going. Not the usual show but that’s probably why I like it.
Keep it going.we need show’s like this to counter most reality tv shows.
This show makes me laugh outloud. Its one if the best on tv. Its crazy, funny and not bogged down with censorship. Twisty and fun. Please bring it back for season 3
Happy is 1 of my favorite shows on television. I don’t want to see it cancelled. I love the relationship between Sax and Happy. I also love the dark and twisted comedy!!!!
JP here again. Just want to say Happy is the best show not only on Syfy but on any network out there. As anyone would or should know the ratings are not what they really appear to be. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has get-togethers on Wednesday nights with 10 or 15 people to watch Happy. Happy needs at least five or six seasons but close to 10 would be awesome. I just turned 50 and it’s probably one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. Sorry the common is so long I could go on forever… Read more »
I just left the comment but didn’t leave my name forgot. Happy is one of my favorite shows, Christopher Meloni is such a great actor. Would be sad to see happy go. It is one of my favorite shows definitely sinks deeply into your mind and lets you drift away. Pat Oswald and the rest of the cast also do an awesome job. Long live happy long live happy
Not a show for the average viewer, I hope it gets a 3rd chance.
Not a show for everyone. it’s a very good show but some people won’t like it therefore at risk. I hope it get a 3rd season.
So over the top. Meloni is great.
Thank you SyFy for allowing TV-MA rating.
Not sure how show compares to comics.
As far as story goes the show is far better than than the comic. The graphic novel is really simple, it’s essentially just the creepy Santa and crime stuff from the first season, season 2 is all new material.
Here’s hoping Happy gets the third season it deserves.
Please renew. Best show ever on SYFY!
