A thriller series, Helix follows a team of scientists from the Centers for Disease Control who travel to the Arctic and find themselves pulled into a terrifying life-and-death struggle. The cast includes Billy Campbell, Catherine Lemieux, Hiroyuki Sanada, Jordan Hayes, Kyra Zagorsky, Mark Ghanimé, Meegwun Fairbrother, and Neil Napier.

What do you think? Do you like the Helix TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a second season?
as much as i love this show. where would it go with a renewal? the CDC heading to another base with another virus. only this time most of the team are immortal? unless they add something completely different, i cant see how it would work.
Please oh pretty please renew Helix. I am so loving this new series!
Please renew. Awesome show, great characters and great storyline.
I have a tendency to not get involved in sci-fi series in the first couple of years due to the fact they do not seem to be finish the story to completion . The BBC is the worst in this regard but survivors is a whole other issue . What originally drew my interest was the casting of Hiroyuki (Henry) Sanada 70’s martial arts star who trained under Sonny Chibas JAC school.

Please re-new Helix! Great show, and cast.
Please renew. Helix is my new favorite show.
Great show! Love the story and the characters.
PLEASE please renew for a second season.
This show is completely awesome. I think it should be renewed because it’s one of the best programs on TV. The acting is superb, the drama is very high and intense the characters are perfectly believable. I believe the program should definitely continue it needs to be renewed.

I’m in love with this show. All little sad they only had 13 episodes in one season but it’s AMAZING
There is nothing on tv like this show. It’s smart and interesting. Each season is supposed to take place in various locations. Lets hope scy fy gives it a chance for a second show. at least it won’t end like alphas did , the cliffhanger of them ‘dead’ is now a reality because we never had another episode. HELIX though was a very different kind of show and lets hope they give it a chance. renew it!
its a great show.
please season 2
its premise is unique,
marketing may be a little misdirected.
I love Helix. Each episode seems to fly by and I can hardly wait until the next episode. I work in the medical field and my dream job would be working with the CDC. I like how this shows gives answers while posing even more questions. I’d love to see how they build upon the immortals and the Ilaria Corporation. Keep it coming.
Please renew!! This show is awesome!!
It should be renewed 100%
Love this show! Hoping for a second season, at least.
