Are you a fan of Outsiders? WGN America just cancelled the TV series after two seasons. What do you think? Do you think it should have been renewed? Would you watch a third season on another channel?
Airing on Tuesday nights, the Outsiders drama follows the Farrell clan, a tight-knit family who reside in the rugged hills of Appalachia and come into conflict with the surrounding population. The cast includes David Morse, Thomas M. Wright, Ryan Hurst, Joe Anderson, Gillian Alexy, Kyle Gallner, Christina Jackson, Francie Swift, and Phyllis Somerville.
Ratings have never been great for Outsiders, but it’s been one of the highest-rated original scripted shows on WGN America. Currently, season two is averaging a 0.21 rating in the 18-49 demo and 780,000 viewers — down by 26% in the demo when compared to the first season. Now, it seems that the upcoming season two finale, scheduled for April 25th, will also serve as the series finale.
Or, will it? Sony Pictures Television is reportedly shopping a third season of Outsiders to other outlets. The show’s ratings wouldn’t seem to be a strong selling point but, these days, you never know.
What do you think? Should Outsiders have been renewed by WGN America? Would you watch the TV series on another channel or via a streaming service?
I would definitely watch it on another channel. I’ve been watching this show from day one. It ended this season with no closure . that’s not fair to the fans. Great show,characters, and story lines. Please bring it back.
It is one of my favorite shows..and I watch a LOT of shows!! It is just so good for so many reasons-it is original,first of all..and the characters are super interesting, there is a ton of action,hillbilly lingo, ..it even had ghost kids.. ..I mean c’mon WGN, what were you thinking when you cancelled this??I need to know what is up with butterfly girl!..It would be awesome if it got picked up by another network!

YES I would watch with great pleasure a third season of the Outsiders, anywhere, asap! It’s a very good show and the acting is perfect. Besides, the story isn’t finished at the end of season 2, there is still plenty to go on. Please, renew it!
