What’s This TV Show About?
An NBC family sitcom, Marlon is loosely inspired by star and co-creator Marlon Wayan’s life. The series also stars Essence Atkins, Notlim Taylor, Amir O’Neil, Bresha Webb, and Diallo Riddle. The story centers on internet superstar Marlon Wayne (Wayans), who is a devoted — if whimsical — father. He and his ex-wife Ashley (Atkins) are committed to having a happy divorce, as they parent their teenaged daughter Marley (Taylor) and younger son, Zack (O’Neil).
Season Two Ratings
The second season of Marlon on NBC averaged a 0.61 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.64 million viewers. Compared to season one, that’s down by 43% and 38%, respectively. Find out how Marlon stacks up against other NBC TV shows.
Marlon has been cancelled so there won’t be a third season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will NBC cancel or renew Marlon for season three? The network is airing episodes in pairs which sort of feels like a burn off. The ratings are also way down so I suspect that the network won’t be ordering a third season. I’ll keep a hungry on the ratings and update this page with breaking developments.
