Notorious isn’t over quite yet. Recently, showrunner Josh Berman spoke with TVLine about what you didn’t see in season one of the ABC TV series and his plans for a possible second season.
The drama revolves around the symbiotic relationship between a charismatic defense attorney (Daniel Sunjata) and a powerhouse TV producer (Piper Perabo) as they attempt to control the media, the justice system, and each other. The cast also includes Kate Jennings Grant, Aimee Teegarden, J. August Richards, Sepideh Moafi, Ryan Guzman, and Kevin Zegers.
In the interview, Berman revealed there were plans to delve more into Jake’s (Sunjata) past in season one, but ABC cut the episode order down from 13 to 10 episodes:
The last few episodes were really going to dig into Jake’s past; we were going to meet both his adoptive parents and his biological parents. We had people in mind, and Daniel [Sunjata] was really excited about doing it.”
The showrunner later added that there are several storylines planned for a possible second season, including a potential romance between Avery (Rebecca Breeds) and Megan (Moafi):
There was actually a scene cut from the finale that showed some sparks between Avery and Megan. It’s a storyline we’ll save for the future, fingers crossed. … We’ve never delved into Megan’s backstory, so we don’t know what her sexuality is. There was great chemistry between those two ladies on the set, so we were going to use Avery as a way of going into Megan’s past.”
And what are the chances of a season two? So far, ABC has not announced whether the show’s renewed or not. However, earlier we reported the network is paying to keep the show’s sets up for now.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Notorious? Do you want a second season?
We really want season 2
Notorious is the best drama
Piper rocks
I love Notorious!! I was thrilled to see a new show with Daniel and Piper. Great
chemistry there. I have my fingers crossed they’ll be back!
The show was amazing! I did not have time to watch it when it first aired because of my classes but as soon as I started watching I fell in love with it so much that I made my roommates watch it and they loved it too!! Please don’t cancel it
Love this show!! This is the 3rd time though that an ABC show I’ve been interested is on the “chopping block”
I realize my little opinion doesn’t really go anywhere but if this show does get cancelled I’m not watching any shows that ABC has to offer because when I get into certain shows from the beginning it ends up getting cancelled and I get disappointed. 🙁
Heck Yes.
Keep this show coming. I didn’t get it at first and maybe others didn’t as well. But I did after a couple of shows and now I am hooked. Like the others have said here already. Keep the show on Please. Viewer numbers fell off after show #2 but they were coming up at the end. That should tell you something. We want this back come fall of 2017.
Love this show. Don’t cancel
Please do not cancel this show! It deserves a season 2
Please renew Notorious for Season 2. It’s a great show. I love piper Perabo and Daniel Sunjata. I love the relationship they have on the show. This show has the best stories and lots of drama with suspense. Never know what will happen next on Notorious. ABC please give it a season 2. Don’t let the fans down.
great show can’t wait for the next episode continue season1 or start fresh with season 2 but don’t wait to long to get back on the air so it doesn’t loose momentum
Yes great show continue season 1 or start fresh with season2 can’t wait for the next episodes
I’m excited for season 2. Jake is a great character and can adds tons of material i’m sure…
I hope they continue this show. I like this show a lot and like PITCH on FOX even better.
Yes, Yes, Yes I sincerely hope it is not cancelled!!!
Yes , I hope it isn’t cancelled. Whatever happened to moving the timeslot or the day when it doesn’t make it where it is instead of canceling it this fast I can think of a few shows that we’re ready to be canceled ” cheers” included and look at how popular they became
Are networks that afraid to end crap shows now? FOX is doing the same to PITCH.
