While the freshman season of the Quantico TV show started out strong for ABC, it fell throughout that first year. The second year saw it sink even further, but the Alphabet Network’s scheduling woes (and overall programming problems) didn’t help. Still it wasn’t cancelled, probably thanks to streaming and overseas deals. Now it’s back for a third season after a three year time jump in the narrative. Is the storyline better for that shakeup? Will Quantico be cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
An ABC terrorism drama, season three of Quantico stars Priyanka Chopra as Alex Parrish. The cast also includes Jake McLaughlin, Johanna Braddy, Russell Tovey, Alan Powell, Marlee Matlin, and Blair Underwood. Alex left the CIA behind for three years of peaceful anonymity in Italy. Now, though, Ryan (McLaughlin) convinces her to help save Shelby (Braddy) from a notorious international arms dealer known only as The Widow. They draft Harry (Tovey) and Owen (Underwood) to their cause. Owen tags in Jocelyn Turner (Matlin), who has history with The Widow. Together, they form a whole, new black-ops force.
