Although series creator Tara Armstrong and star Caroline Dhavernas both want to make additional seasons of their new TV show, Canada’s Global Television has not yet announced if Mary Kills People will be cancelled or renewed for season two. Is a renewal dependent on Lifetime’s continued interest? How will the six-part first season perform in the US TV ratings? Will the American audience extend the life of Mary Kills People, or will they deliver the death blow? Stay tuned.
A black comedy and euthanasia drama, Mary Kills People also stars Jay Ryan, Richard Short, Lyriq Bent, Greg Bryk, Abigail Winter, Grace Lynn Kung, Katie Douglas, Alexandra Castillo, Sebastien Roberts, Lola Flanery, Natalie Lisinska, and Jess Salgueiro. The Global and Lifetime TV series centers on Dr. Mary Harris (Dhavernas). A physician and single mother, Mary also operates a mercy-killing business on the side. She deeply believes people should be in control of their lives and their deaths. To Mary, that is liberty. Dying is not a crime.

I LOVE THIS SHOW!
I am addicted to Mary kills People! I have looked on Netflix for it so I can watch the whole season again but no luck. Demand only had a couple episodes up. Any suggestions where I can find episode 1- on?
Please renew this show. Very good and so many possibilities to go with this.
This show is Great, it is a dark comedy. It keeps me on the edge of my seat at times. Good looking actors. Funny, edgy. Nothing else like it on TV. Not another dumb cop show, or a stupid family comedy. It twists and turns. You can’t end the show. We have so much to find out. Love all of the actors! They are interesting. Great cast. DON’T CANCEL
Please bring back for season 2. I just found out about the show and love it.
Renew !Please! We love it! We love her! We love him!
My husband and I love this show – please renew it!
RENEW THE SHOW I LOVED IT!
Renew it!! I love the show. Its a controversial topic that needs to be brought to light and discussed. When you watch people slowly die in pain over several months and sometimes years then you have to wonder why can’t they choose to end their suffering i. A humane way?? I feel it is a very important topic to get out there. When your pet is diagnosed with an incurable disease that will result in death we are told the best thing to do is to euthanize them so they do not suffer and its the humane thing to do.… Read more »
I totally agree with everything you say. I am actually very ill and have been for over 21 years. I have recently looked into assisted Suicide to be honest. I can’t travel to some foriegn Country. I am scared to do it myself because of religious beliefs and I am afraid I will mess myself up and live a more horrible existence than I do now. I have lived the way I wanted to live. I have raised both kids into adulthood. This show has really touched me. I think this should be legal in the USA. We do give… Read more »
Renew it! This is a topic that needs to be brought out into the open and discussed and this TV showing is doing that. It’s becoming more acceptable to discuss physician assisted death. And it should be legal EVERYWHERE!
Ratings reflect how bad this show was. Trying to be Dexter without the cast and writing. Awful.
Love this show. Please renew. I have to see what happens next.
First off, I really enjoyed MKP. Excellent cast, writing and direction. I think the reason Americans didn’t take to it is reflective of our current culture of fear. Fear of death. Fear of the unknown. Fear of change. We are becoming more conformist and less creative. I’m a teacher and I see the fear in our children. I’ve always tried to think outside the box, and MKP does just that. Mary wants euthanasia to be a choice, nothing more. If Americans were more open-minded, maybe they would notice that too.
Renew it please. I love the drama, and I love how they bring light to the people who are going through the end of life contemplation. The networks have a habit of cancelling all the good shows and keeping all the sorry ones. Please please please renew this show.
