What’s This TV Show About?
A Starz Edwardian period drama, Howards End stars Hayley Atwell, Philippa Coulthard, Alex Lawther, Tracey Ullman, Julia Ormond, Matthew Macfadyen, Joseph Quinn, Rosalind Eleazar, Joe Bannister, Bessie Carter, and Jonah Hauer-King. The story centers on Margaret (Atwell) and Helen Schlegel (Coulthard), two unique, self-reliant sisters, as they try to make their way, in a world in flux. While the unconventional Margaret negotiates her relationship with traditionalist Henry Wilcox (Macfadyen), husband of her late friend, Ruth (Ormond), the impetuous Helen sets out to help a young bank clerk, Leonard Bast (Quinn), who has powerful aspirations well beyond his station. The drama unfolds in London and at the Wilcox family’s country home — Howards End.

Telly’s Take
Will Starz renew Howards End for season two? This is billed as a “limited” series, which can mean mini-series, but doesn’t always. Since this one is based on a novel, one-and-done is the logical conclusion to draw. However, Howards End is originally a BBC series, and it did quite well across the pond. If it draws a big audience in the US, too, that could change everything. For now, I’ll consider it a mini-series and start making dinner plans, but I will still keep an eye on the Nielsens and the trades and update this page with breaking developments.

5/1/18 update: The fourth and final episode of the season was designated as the “series finale” so, we have our answer. No season two.
