Manifest was cancelled by NBC earlier this week, but the series could still be saved by a streaming service. Netflix is seen as a possibility because of how well the mystery drama has performed since seasons one and two began streaming on the service last week. Manifest has topped Netflix’s Top 10 list since its release.
When the cancellation news was announced, the cast, creator, and the writer’s room staff all took to social media to start a #savemanifest campaign. Deadline has now revealed that Netflix and Warner Bros TV are in talks to save the drama which stars Josh Dallas, Melissa Roxburgh, JR Ramirez, Luna Blaise, Jack Messina, Parveen Kaur, and Matt Long.
The drama follows the survivors of a plane that goes missing for five years and then miraculously returns. Jeff Rake, the creator of the series, has always been clear that he has a six-season plan for the series, and he is hopeful that Netflix will allow him to follow through on that vision. The streaming service has saved another cancelled Warner Bros TV series, Lucifer, so that adds to the hope.
Check out the tweets the cast and creator of the series have been sending out since the cancellation news broke.

What do you think? Would you watch new seasons of Manifest if they landed on Netflix? Are you hoping for a fourth season?
I would definitely watch on Netflix
I am sick and tired of so many things airing on Netflix when I don’t subscribe! I already pay more than enough for the channels I do subscribe to without adding another one that I wouldn’t even have time to watch. Ugh.
Would love the full 6 seasons, but at a minimum please give us proper closure with a 4th season on Netflix!
Netflix……I’ll be a watcher if you save Manifest…..I have to know how it ends….they’re all connected! ✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️✈️
Me and all my friends will watch it! We love Netflix, please save manifest!!! Needs to continue!!!!
Would definitely. Watch
Absolutely will turn to Netflix to watch another season of Manifest!
I would like to see Manifest on regular TV but if not any way you can get it. I have watched it from the beginning.
At least give us an ending and not leave us hanging. Netflix would do that.
Yes, Please!
Yes I would watch more seasons. My sister’s and I love the show. Please save it.
I just started this amazing show just to find out the money grubbing execs at NBC axed it. How can they be so glaringly stupid to cancel a number 1 rated show? I hope Netflix picks it up and let’s it shine. The thousands of fans deserve to know what happens and not be left with a cliffhanger.
This is an amazing show!! We don’t get NBC but subscribe to Netflix. Discovered Manifest on Netflix then purchased Season 3 on Amazon Prime. OH MY GOSH! Such a terrific show with a great cast and talented writers. NBC’s loss is Netflix’s gain yet again!! There is still so much story to tell-they’re nowhere near the end. Come on Netflix!!! Be our hero!!!
HECK YES I WOULD WATCH IT. NBC lost out on a great drama mystery show. Their is ton of people that want to see what happens with the people from to flight 828 and how all of this came about. We are all counting on you, NETFLIX, to take this show under your wings so it can fly.
This is not fair. I have watched this program from day one. If they put it on netflix I won’t be able to watch it. Don’t have netflix. It is so exciting; this is not right. I am extremely disappointed. Please save it.Please.
