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. I’ll update this page as needed. Subscribe for free updates on any Midnight, Texas cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Are you glad that Midnight, Texas has been renewed for a second season? How would you have felt if NBC had cancelled this TV series, instead?


I loved this show. It is one of the few new shows I watched this year. Please give it a second season.
Don’t cancel. Second season please
PLEASE renew! I enjoyed this series a great deal. The writing, casting and characters were wonderful. One of the best shows on network tv in a very long time.
Season 2 please!
I’ve enjoyed the show so much, I’ve started reading the book series, almost done with the first. I’ve been a fan of these type of shows since I was a kid. The first movie I saw when I was 4 was Abbott & Costello Meets Frankenstein. I’m 74 now and have always loved the “supernatural.” Please bring back a Season 2.
I want this show to come back for a second season. I loved binge watching it and would have series recorded it had I known it was even on television!
Please tell us if midnight texas has been confirmed
really they are concerned about 49 year olds and under for this show, what about the rest of the people that love it and are older than 49 !! get real people us older tv watchers pay the bills and WATCH TV !!!
YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD, TERRY. IT’S HARD TO UNDERSTAND WHY THEY CHOOSE ONE SEGMENT OF THE COUNTRY INSTEAD OF THE ENTIRETY!
please don’t cancel Midnight Texas it’s a good show me and my Husband like it
Ya, I’m 65. This show has it all. A witch, fallen angel, vampire….. It’s great. Interesting. Please bring it back. It’s difficult to find good si-fi shows these days.
Please renew this show. I’m a bit older than the usual preferred demographic, but my tastes run toward great fantasy programs with just a modicum of gore but more of a story and even, dare I say, a moral perspective–though not in the severely religious or overly blatant manner of some programs.
Please please please renew!!!! We need more Midnight, Texas ❤
Please renew Midnight, Texas. Great Show!!!
Please renew Midnight, Texas.. very good show.
Please renew Midnight, Texas! Great characters, fun to watch! There was no advertising that I knew of in advance since I just stumbled on it the first night. I hope it gets more notice because it is worth the time to watch! Keep Midnight, Texas for Season 2!!
Love the creativity of each character & the show! Please bring Midnight, Texas back for many more seasons
