What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, Midnight, Texas stars François Arnaud, Dylan Bruce, Parisa Fitz-Henley, Arielle Kebbel, Jason Lewis, Peter Mensah, Sarah Ramos, and Yul Vázquez. Based on the book series of the same name, from True Blood author Charlaine Harris, the supernatural drama plays out in the remote Texas town of Midnight, where nothing is what it seems. There, only outsiders belong, while normality is just plain weird. It is the best haven for people who need to hide from the world at large. The townies come together to form a sort of chosen family. Together they fend off external pressures from nosy police officers, vicious biker gangs, and their own dark pasts.

Telly’s Take
Midnight, Texas was originally supposed to premiere in the mid-season, but in the end, the Peacock network held it for summer. What’s more — they only ordered ten episodes. While none of that adds up to anything definitive, it could indicate that they have less faith in the series. The ratings have not been very good so I suspect that the show will be cancelled.

My husband and myself we really love this show. It has helped us deal with the loss of Grimm. We hope it is renewed. Love all the characters. Please renew.
Love this show…characters are surprising and smart. Supernatural part fits so well and is not overdone.
Within 7 minutes.. I was hooked! Trying not to binge watch the first season in 1 night. PLEASE do NOT cancel this show. Not everyone has cable, so people like me have to wait for it to come on Hulu. And I know I’m not the only one of my friends to obsessively watch the show. Please renew!!!!
absolutely!!!!! renew this great show
I love Midnight Texas, & I’d absolutely watch every single episode they put out there, faithfully!
I am really hoping that this show comes back for a another season. Loved all of the 1st season but was left on a Clift hanger and am dying to know what’s next to come.
Hope this show is renewed. Never boring and the characters are all passionate about something.
I actually really ended up enjoying this show, I would really love to see it get a second season. I want to see how everyone deals with the fall out from this season.
Every show I feel very passionately about gets cancelled, so sorry guys, it doesn’t look good for Midnight Texas. I am kind of surprised in the digital age, that networks still rely on ratings and advertising dollars to fund television, when more and more viewers don’t view their show during the on-air broadcast, they have numerous streaming and on-demand options, as well as online purchasing options for download from places like iTunes and Amazon, meaning they don’t see the ads or get counted in the ratings anyway. It seems they would innovate and find new ways to infuse cash into… Read more »

We love Midnight Texas! Pleaee DON’T cancel!!
Please please please don’t cancel midnight is ******* amazing ***
My husband and I both love this show (rare indeed). Even though the last episode was a few weeks ago, I still find myself thinking about it. So much so that I bought the first book in the series to keep it in my life. I surely hope NBC or someone will give it another (at least) season.
I loved the books and absolutely love the show. I guess that makes me strange. If the show gets canceled it will break my heart.
