It’s being reported by Dateline that USA Network has renewed their original drama, In Plain Sight, for two more seasons.
The new deal will take the cable show through its fifth season and the main cast, including Mary McCormack, Frederick Weller and Paul Ben-Victor, are all set to return.
Seasons one and two were comprised of 12 and 15 installments respectively. Year three was supposed to have 16 episodes but was cut short to 13. The early wrap reportedly happened because showrunner and executive producer John McNamara had to take a leave of absence for medical reasons.
It’s unknown at this point how many episodes USA has ordered for seasons four and five or, if the show will wrap its run after that. An official announcement has not been released.
What do you think? Are you glad to hear In Plain Sight is coming back for not one but two more seasons? Should it end after that or continue to season six?

Love the show, can’t wait for it to return…hoping it will last longer than just 5 total seasons.
Awesome show with lots of depth, bring it back for six!
I’m so glad the show was picked up again, but I hope they ditch last season’s format and get back to some of the family stuff with Mary. Last season was disappointing in the way it ended things with Rafe, pretty much axed Jinx and Brandy, and all but left IPS as just another cop show. BORING. Don’t writers and producers realize that you have to mix that stuff up? All that cop & robber stuff gets too heavy; too much drama, death, and depression! I eagerly awaited some sort of attention to Mary’s relationship with her partner, since it… Read more »
This show entertains the viewer quite well. The lack of profanity and changing the female roles to daytime versions of streetwalkers alone is enough to make this show stand out.
I vote yes for renewal.

Excellent Show. I can hardly wait for it to return. I would love to see more episodes this time around. Waiting a year between seasons is a long time to wait! Even Burn Notice doesn’t take a year to return with more episodes, Love that show too! So hurry up with that!
Marshall is one of the best characters on any crime show. It is rare to have a “thinker” on TV at all. I’d like to see more episodes featuring Marshall. The unrequited romantic tension between Marshall and Mary is important to the show’s dynamic. Marshall is the only person who really understands Mary but Mary can’t bring herself to admit it. I hope the writers can find some heart-felt ways to tell this side of their story.
One of the best shows on television. I am excited to hear of it’s renewal and hope it for real.
“In Plain Sight” is truly one of the ALL TIME BEST SHOWS! Right there with “Burn Notice” and “White Collar”. Keep ’em coming.
When is IPS scheduled to be shown?
I am thrilled that they are bringing back Mary and Marshall…I loved that show….Hopefully they will have more then just the two more seasons…I just want to know when it is coming back so I can set my DVR…..
GREAT SHOW! GLAD TO HEAR IT’S BACK FOR 2 MORE SEASONS!!!!! LUV THE CHARACTERS! LOVE THE STORY LINE!
In Plain Sight is terrific…. one of the best shows on television. It’s great to see something that’s not reality TV. The cast plays so well off each other which makes the show really good viewing.
this is the very best show that has been on for many many years, PLEASE keep it on. Please please
I’m with Carol. This is a great show. Like the Steven Weber character with Mary.
I Love this show!!!! I want it to come back for more than two seasons! If Law and Order can run forever than so can In Plain Sight which is a much better show!
There’s a lot about Mary for guys to like too! … the writing/dialoge and quips are very entertaining … and a good show with nothing offensive in it is a great place for me to spend an hour these days !!
