Riches will not be returning for a second season. Prime Video has cancelled the British drama that was released on the streaming service in December 2022. Six episodes were produced.
Starring Deborah Ayorinde, Hugh Quarshie, Sarah Niles, Adeyinka Akinrinade, Ola Orebiyi, Nneka Okoye, and Emmanuel Imani, the drama follows the very successful Richards family. As the adult children deal with the death of their father, they also try to figure out who will take control of the family business.
Creator Abby Ajayi revealed the show’s cancellation on Instagram. She said:
“This time last year we launched. Much love to this incredible ensemble of actors and our fabulous screw. Thank you to everyone who supported. So proud we got to make this show. I still had many more stories to tell… And, it was gonna be

What do you think? Did you watch Riches on Prime Video? Did you want to see a second season of this drama?
Totally gutted with this news. I watched season 1 when it was first aired and just watching it again on itvX and thought I’d look again for series 2. Someone must be able to do something. Loved the storyline and actors. Please rethink this.
Wow!!
Googled to find out when Season 2 was airing….so disappointed that a fabulous show, ending with that kind of drama and cliffhanger gets cancelled.
Fingers crossed Season 2 will be streaming somewhere soon
HUGELY DISAPPOINTED THAT THERE WILL NOT BE A SEASON 2. WRITING AND ACTING WERE CAPTIVATING. A REPREAVE PERHAPS??
I’m with you Lois, this cannot be the end of this wonderful drama with great acting!
