Knightfall has been cancelled, so there will not be a third season. Could this series be revived someday?
Telly’s Take
Will Knightfall be cancelled or renewed for season three on History? The ratings are way down but this channel has so few scripted series, it’s difficult to tell what numbers they consider to be high enough for a renewal. It’s their lowest-rated scripted series so I’m inclined to think it’s toast. I’ll update this page with new developments. Subscribe for free alerts on any Knightfall cancellation and renewal news.

What do you think? Are you sad that Knightfall has been cancelled? Were you hoping this series would be renewed for a third season?
Shocking to have a fantastic cast , and a world wide audiance ,for a tv series ,
And no ending , why ???
Can they not follow LAST KINGDOM
& finish Knightfall with a movie ,
At least give the story closure!
This is by far one of the best historical shows I have ever seen in my life. It was very interesting and climactic through the whole show. I am very heartbroken that it has been canceled. Seems like whenever there’s something really worth watching that people should watch, always ends up getting canceled. What is wrong with America?
There were too many loose ends, so yes there should be a 3rd season. Of course no one cares about what the viewers think. We should stop watching any of their new shows!
Very disappointed! Finally, a worthy medieval show worth watching, with some fantastic characters, that didn’t focus on sex and “not offending specific groups”! Very unfortunate it is getting canceled so early on.
Disappointed this has been canceled. I found it later in the series and enjoyed watching so many in a row. It was actually better than most shows on today!
