The knights have fallen ahead of season three. History has cancelled the Knightfall TV show after two seasons and 18 episodes.
A Middle Ages drama, Knightfall tells the story of the Knights Templar. Mark Hamill joined the History drama for season two, with Tom Cullen, Pádraic Delaney, Ed Stoppard, Simon Merrells, Julian Ovenden, and Jim Carter returning. Also new in the second season are Genevieve Gaunt, Tom Forbes, and Clementine Nicholson. The series explores the secret world of these warrior monks. With the downfall of the Templar Order looming, season two focuses on themes including power, redemption, revenge, betrayal, family, and an epic war between church and state.
The second season of Knightfall averaged a 0.13 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 652,000 viewers. Compared to season one, that’s down by 48% and 47%, respectively. Knightfall is History‘s lowest-rated series. The last episode of season two aired nearly a year ago, on May 13, 2019.
History’s Project Blue Book has also been cancelled after two seasons so that leaves Vikings as the channel’s only remaining scripted series. That show is currently in its sixth and final season with the final 10 episodes still waiting to be scheduled.
What do you think? Are you a fan of the Knightfall TV series? Would you have watched a third season?
Great show. I’m nearing the end of season 1 and I’m very disappointed that there is not a plan for season 3. I wish there was a way for us to petition for a third season and more. This has great acting and a great plot.
Would love a season3
Great show the plot and the acting were amazing definitely like to watch the 3 season
A real bummer.
Why would there be no Season 3? I’m in a place where internet signal is quite strong from 11 pm to 5 am but the sleep deprivation was worth watching Knightfall.
Great show. It was a show worth watching, as well as, educational. One of the very few shows on all networks not focused on the mentality of a 12 year old child or young gamers. There is a place for this show and others like it.
Quite disappointed that there will be no season 3. The plot, acting and cinematography were great. I was glued into every episode and eager to know what would happen next to Landry and the Templars. Please bring back the series.
So disappointed that there will not be a season 3. So little decent stuff out there at the moment so they cancel what is one of the few excellent programs around !! Daft !!
This is an amazing dramatization/historical fiction series centered on the Knights Templar. I have thoroughly enjoyed it and can scarcely fathom why a 3rd and subsequent series of the show are not in the offing…..this is bananas. Every year literal “crap” is renewed and this show isn’t….totally bonkers.
I’m very disappointed that they cancelled the show without a definitive ending. Invested a lot of time and enjoyed the show to not have a conclusion.
I enjoyed the series. Very disappointed the show was canceled. You get attached to characters & then they cancel the show.
I really loved this show. I would have definitely watched a third season
My husband & I loved watching Knightfall every week! It was one of our favourite shows. We are VERY DISAPPOINTED to hear it has been canceled! Yes, I would definitely watch the show if brought back for Season 3! Everyone pulls shows off due to low ratings but Knightfall had a good following! The actors were excellent! Some of the shows could have included more women in the storylines to form relationships here & there but I loved watching the knights fighting, defending & saving damsels, guarding the gold items for the church & other excitement! I hope the History… Read more »
