Freeform has very few original scripted TV series these days but Motherland: Fort Salem: was one of the channel’s top performers last year. Will it continue to do well in the ratings? Will Motherland: Fort Salem be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned. *Status Update Below.
A supernatural drama series, the Motherland: Fort Salem TV show stars Taylor Hickson, Jessica Sutton, Ashley Nicole Williams, Amalia Holm, Demetria McKinney, and Lyne Renee. The series is set in an alternate version of present-day America. In this reality, witches ended their persecution 300 years ago by cutting a deal with the United States government to fight for their country. The story follows three young women from basic training in combat magic into terrifying and thrilling early deployment. In this world, the traditional roles of gender and power are flipped with women on the front lines, the fight looming and terrorist threats that are strikingly familiar to our world, but with supernatural tactics and weapons. In the second season, Raelle (Hickson), Tally (Sutton), and Abigail (Williams) confront higher stakes, dangerous magic, and a new threat from an ancient group of witch-hunters — the Camarilla.

I don’t know how you view ratings but my friends an I now stream none of us have cable anymore. This show is awesome don’t believe the ratings went down that much. Should be renewed well over season 3!!! Ratings should be update just like ppl now stream more than have regular TV!
My DVR died and I was checking often for when Motherland was coming back on, didn’t see any ad’s for it and missed all of 2nd season, all I have to say is thank you Hulu.
Please bring back Motherland Of Fort Salem !! Love this show ! Best T.V. series in a long time ! I only wish you would keep it going after series 3 !! How about a couple more to finish the story ! We need at least too Series 5 to complete the Story ! Im so happy to know 3 is coming and sad your stoping it !! #SaveFortSalem
Please renew this series, cannot fathom why you wouldn’t.
ratings dropped nearly %50 just going from S1 to S2, so i imagine S3’s ratings will plummet even further as they most likely struggle to break 75-100k same day air viewers
yes please renew Motherland Fort Salem it is so good!
Love the show! I’m in Canada and can only watch Season 1 currently on Disney+. Would love to have a weekly release of the episodes on Disney+, I think that would help their viewership!
