What’s This TV Show About?
A Hulu pre-apocalyptic crime drama, Hard Sun stars Jim Sturgess, Agyness Deyn, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Jojo Macari, Derek Riddell, Owain Arthur, Varada Sethu, Adrian Rawlins, Lorraine Burroughs, Aisling Bea, and Joplin Sibtain. Although DI Elaine Renko (Deyn) and DCI Charlie Hicks (Sturgess) are mismatched, these partners are out to enforce the laws and keep safe their loved ones, as encroaching natural disaster threatens to end the world. While investigating a murder in London’s inner city, the duo uncovers proof that the world will be destroyed in five years. Because the British government is desperate to keep that information secret, Security Service (i.e. MI5) operatives are out to silence Hicks and Renko — permanently.
Hard Sun has been cancelled so there won’t be a second season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Unless they decide to publicize viewership, it is hard to predict if Hulu will cancel or renew Hard Sun for a first season, so let’s look what we do know. The series is a co-production between the BBC and Hulu. Seven Network in Australia and ZDF in Germany have already acquired the rights. Hard Sun comes from writer Neil Cross, who also created the popular Luther series. Cross has told Radio Times that he’s sketched out a five-season plan. Unfortunately, it wasn’t to be.

What do you think? Should Hulu have renewed the Hard Sun TV series for season two? How long do you think this sci-fi series should have run?
Wow! This was awesome! I can’t believe that Hulu would not think of the fans! Cancelled! How unfortunate for a lot of people! Always about the buck! Not about the people! Very pissed!
First, an outstanding show. Great actors, great writing, and great plot. Knowing this…unfortunately, this series makes other less extraordinary series look VERY badly; other inferior series that the critics have been paid handsomely to “create” awards for. On that note, it’s no surprise that BBC and Hulu will cancel this. After all, it’s NOT about the quality or actual fan ratings, it’s about the critics and the “buck”. Yet, if the all-powerful firms wished this series to succeed in the first place, they would have invested the time and money to appropriately advertise. Yet again, another example of why online… Read more »
Typical of the beeb, Cancelling another interesting niche series. Hope the remaining intended seasons are produced elsewhere.
I discoverd this show last week. I’m four episodes in and LOVE it. I hope there will be more seasons.
To my knowledge it’s cancelled!
Correct, it has been cancelled by the BBC.
Hope it doesn’t get cancelled.. then it was actually good so wouldnt be surprising if they did cancel it
Please please please bring on all the rest of the seasons I’ve been waiting so long to see what happens, it’s just wrong to leave us in suspense like this, you can’t make a great programme like this and then just leave it! Come on sort it out and get season to on ASAP! Please and thank you
Please. renew the series
Binged all 6 episodes today! I want more! Searched and disappointed not to see season 2 has been confirmed. Please
Yes! Please renew. Just watched and loved it.
Yes, renew! I love the detective characters, the actors that play them, their relationship and the story line of what is happening to the world! I want to see more of what happens!!!
Please renew for season 2, not when his family were hold hostage by MI5 that wanted to keep the secrets.
Hard Sun should definitely be renewed. Totally crazy and very engaging.
definitely renew and HULU needs to let people know to watch it. It just showed up on my list of stuff to watch with no knowledge it even existed. It’s top notch.
I absolutely relish this show. Great depth of characters and the acting was spot on. I hope a premise is found so we can see season two.
