There won’t be a second season of Happyland. MTV as cancelled the dramedy after one season of eight episodes.
On Happyland, the cynical teenage daughter (Bianca Santos) of a career princess (Camille Guaty) at a popular theme park wants to escape the life she’s known. Things get complicated when she falls for the handsome son (Shane Harper) of the park owner. The rest of the cast includes Cameron Moulene, Katherine McNamara, and Ryan Rottman.
The series debuted in late September to very soft ratings and the numbers didn’t get any better. The season ended up averaging a 0.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 370,000 viewers. Fellow dramedy Awkward averaged a 0.6 in the demo with 1.13 million.
The last installment of Happyland aired on November 18th.
What do you think? Did you like the Happyland series? Do you think that it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I think mtv should have let them have one more shot with a second season to try and get more ppl attention.
I think it should stay. not fair that it is cancelled!!!!
I think this is so stupid. I actually liked that show! I was so excited to see what happened after they got caught. I was looking up when it was going to come back on and when I saw this I was so mad/sad! They shouldn’t cancel it!!! NO WAY!
I think that canceling Happyland is so not fair. MTV didn’t even give the show a chance. They didn’t do that much advertising for the show compared to Akward and Faking it. Also the show played so late at night which is probably why there wasn’t that many views. At least finish the show because the last episode shows a big cliff hanger. The show makes you want to watch more, that’s how good it is. Please just give the show another chance and promote it more, after all Akward isn’t going to be around forever!!
I loved this show it was so amazing they shouldn’t gave canceled it. Now I have no reason to watch MTV anymore. To me watch MTV is pointless now if they are just gonna get rid off every good show on it!
This was definitely a show I would’ve liked to see more of. I mean MTV is becoming more of just dumb reality TV. Very disappointed with the decision of canceling. I’m sure around the second season the views would have raised all it needed was a little more advertising
I really enjoyed this show and i am very sad it got cancelled. It was different than anything else on television and they shouldn’t have cancelled it. I find that it wasn’t promoted enough, like the other shows, and that’s why it did’nt have good ratings. I think MTV should give this show another chance beacause it could be very good! Please put it back on, eveyone that i know loved it!
I am very disappointed. I loved this show and feel it was a refreshing and new story line. They really should not have cancelled it.
I enjoyed watching this show I was looking forward to see what happens and this happens really take the other stupid “reality” shows off.
I love this show please do not cancel it. This is the only other show i watch besides from Awkward and this is there last season.
I loved the show and now I feel so angry and disappointed for cancelling it. I believe they should give it an other chance for season two and if the ratings are still so low they have enought evidence to cancell, but its silly yto do after 8 episodes.
I was really looking forward for season 2 of happyland they should definately air it again cause it was a really great show !!!
totally agreed! very disappointed that this show at least to find out what happened after the last episode!
I enjoyed this show very much and am very dissapointed it is not being renewed for a second season. Mtv honestly gave no effort to promote this show and did nothing to try and up the viewings. Instead of showing the same awkward promo twice in one commercial break they should have put in one happyland promo. I love awkward but i get super annoyed with the commercials that pretty much give everything in the episode away anyway and it already has its dedicated fans. Happyland show have been given a second chance with more help from the network promoting… Read more »
I liked the show. I hate when the Networks leave unfinished business on a show. It was just starting to get good. I blame MTV they didn’t promote the show enough like they did for Awkward or Faking It. I think the show had potential. It was better then watching teen mom’s, Catfish, or some other reality crap!
