TV show description:
A crime drama series with a twist, the Prodigal Son TV series has a darkly comedic tone. On the show, Malcolm Bright (Payne) is an extraordinary criminal psychologist who knows how killers think and how their minds work. Back in the 1990s, his father, Dr. Martin Whitly (Sheen), was one of the worst — a notorious serial killer called “The Surgeon” who killed at least 23 people.
Since murder is “the family business”, Malcolm uses his twisted genius for good, to help the NYPD solve crimes and stop killers. He does this while dealing with an elegant and manipulative mother named Jessica (Young), an annoyingly normal sister named Ainsley (Sage), a homicidal father who’s still looking to bond with his prodigal son, and his own constantly evolving neuroses.
Malcolm works alongside his longtime mentor, Gil Arroyo (Phillips), and two detectives — no-nonsense Dani Powell (Perrineau) and JT Tarmel (Harts), a born-and-bred New Yorker who questions whether Bright is a psychopath himself.
Episode #33 — The Last Weekend
The search for a serial killer known as “The Woodsman” might help the NYPD find one of their own.
First aired: May 18, 2021.
What do you think? Do you like the Prodigal Son TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
Love the story plot! It has a lot of twists, crime and drama. Please find another tv. station who is willing to continue this great series!!!
Please do not cancel this show! My husband & I loved it. It was exciting with an excellent plot & writing. Why do channels only consider the 18-49 year old demographic? Just because y husband & I are in our 50s doesn’t mean that we don’t want to watch great television. I’m in the UK, has anyone looked at the viewing stats for countries other than the US.
please do not, repeat, do not cancel this show! I look forward to each episode. How they figure out everything. I was grabbed by the first episode! The actors are incredible. The writers scripted so many twists and turns. Wonderful!!!!!
Do not, do not, a million times do not cancel the show!
What on earth what reason could you possible have to cancel this show?!!!!!
So…..keep keep keep keep the show.
Show that you do listen to viewers!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE….PLEASE, A 1000 TIMES ………..DO NO’T CANCEL THIS SHOW!!!!
IT IS TRULY ONE OF THE BEST SERIES ON TELEVISION……
WHY, WHY MUST YOU ALWAYS CANCEL THE BEST TELEVISION SERIES ON A CONSTANT BASIS???? DO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN CHARGE OF CANCELLING TV SERIES NEVER WATCH TV????
Maybe put the show on Netflix then. Would get the ratings up
Please don’t cancel this show! Last show left me hanging! I mean is Dr. Whitly really dead?!? If he lives, how will Malcom my Boy handle this?!?! Will Ainsley do or have to do any additions killings? Will big brother help her clean up??
Bellamy as Jessica: I loved the scene where Malcom is waking up to Mommy singing ‘I say a little prayer for you…’
Not to mention great Actors Lou, Aurora, Frank and funny Keiko.
There are enough fans that, that if you want, we could write one episode for you!
Ohhh, such a shame my Boy.
Do not cancel! The actors are great, the story line fantastic. I cannot believe you would cancel one of your better programs!
Please don’t cancel!!! Love this show!
Found it late but caught up as soon as possible. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!❤
DO NOT CANCEL!!!!!LOVE THIS SHOW
Dont cancel. It is one of last interesting shows on the telly.
It shouldn’t be canceled especially with the cliff hanger. Please change your minds. I will still watch!
DO NOT CANCEL PLEASE! LOVE IT!
PLEASE DON’T CANCEL! This is is AMAZING!
I am already missing it so much. I don’t understand the logic to cancel a great show to put on silly stuff. The cast and the plot are amazing and I hope it gets picked up for a season 3 soon!
Goodbye Prodigal son so good it’s ended too soon love it and enjoy it never missed any episodes of it. Tuesday night crime drama.
This is one of the best shows out there. There are many shows that should be cancelled and this isn’t one of them. I love this show and look forward to watching it. There’s not many really great shows out there anymore so this one has to be picked up and continued. There’s so many ways to go with the characters how could you cancel? Please keep this show going……
Agree completely. There are a LOT of cruddy shows on tv today. How they could cancel this one is beyond me.
One of the only shows I looked forward to seeing every week. Maybe serial killers are not “family” entertainment. There are so many reality shows that they could cancel instead. maybe it will find a life on Netflix or Amazon.
