(ABC / Bob D’Amico)
Fans of the Quantico TV show on ABC should brace themselves for some major changes. While we’ve known for a while that creator Josh Safran had stepped down as showrunner, his replacement had been unknown, ’til now. Code Black creator Michael Seitzman has been tapped as the new executive producer and Quantico showrunner.
After the ABC anti-terrorism drama eked out a scant 13-episode third season, Yasmine Al Massri, who played played twin FBI recruits Nimah and Raina, announced her departure. Soon thereafter we reported, Pearl Thusi, who played Dayana Mampasi, was exiting Quantico. Deadline reports Priyanka Chopra, Jake McLaughlin, Johanna Braddy, and Blair Underwood will be back, in season three.
According the the report, Aunjanue Ellis and Russell Tovey, are not expected to return — at least not as series regulars.

What do you think? Are you looking forward to the third season of the Quantico TV series? Can this ABC TV show rebuild its audience? Let us know, below.
I really hope that this show finds its audience its just such a unique and amazing show I’d have to see if go before or finds its footing. I love the flashback aspect of it. Reminds me of list, once upon a time and even this is us all do the flash back flash forward aspect. How to get away with murder is currently doing it best. Please don’t cancel this show until it’s had at least 4 season to be eligible for syndication xD
This is a show that started of in a great manner but over time has way over complicated itself and whilst it has to some degree honed itself in a little, it is still far to disjointed, so either get back to a specific track or I won’t see it going past one more season.
Great show I just can’t keep up with it because of the all the back and forth It’s like watching TV with the split screen on two different channels and I lose the the last season even ended too much before it ended will this continue with a new producer just annoying as it can be but still a great show thanks
A 3rd season, a 4th, 5th, and as many as I can get from the show. Love this show. can’t wait for the return…..
I look forward to another season of Quantico, because it is one of my favorite shows currently. I will watch it as long as it is on the air.
I will watch as long as they keep making it.
If you have mesmerizing actors like these then yes any show can rebuild an audience with good writers. Elephant in the room. Good writers.
