Amazon UK has renewed the historical drama Ripper Street for fourth and fifth seasons. Season four is expected to stream in the UK later this year and season five will stream sometime next year. Filming will begin soon.
The episodes will be shown on BBC America here in the states but it’s unclear exactly when.
Executive producer Saul Venit of Lookout Point, said, “Keeping this series going for 37 episodes over five series is a hugely exciting achievement and is testament to the extraordinary creative results, as well as to the visionary teams at BBC Worldwide and Amazon as our core commercial partners.”
As you may recall, Amazon rescued Ripper Street and renewed it for a third season after the BBC cancelled the series. The third season of the series is currently airing in the United States. The eight episodes will finish airing on June 17th.
What do you think? Do you like the Ripper Street TV show? How long do you think the series should run?
keep this show ALIVE BEST of the BEST great cast Ive have looked forward to this show, since it first aired.
Probably one of the best shows on tv, like Hannibal (which was cancelled) Story , acting , and set are all perfect .
I’ve LOVED the show sence episode one I’d like it to go one for years! I have so few shows I like to watch I hate to see my favorites canceled!!
Yes, I liked the show very much. Please do not cancelled the show.
Yes, I liked the show very much. Please not cancelled it.
I love Ripper Street and hope they truly are continuing!
I absolutely LOVE RIPPER STREET, and hope that it continues for as long as possible !! I live in New York in the USA, and I enjoy British tv immensely. BBC America tv has so many interesting, unique and riveting shows, and RIPPER STREET is one of them ! Keep the episodes coming !
Stephanie, I have been saying the same thing. I loved Luther (Idris Elba) Rupert Penny Jones and of course MacFayden. All of them have been on tremendous British TV series and all of sudden they disappear. We in the US love them, but it seems no one listens to us.
i hope it last as long as criminal minds does..this show is awesome.and let it be with reied…
I think it’s a great show we americans need to get rid of the reality mentality
come on!
how can they cancel this –oh wait it’s the stupid reality mentality
come on!!
I have really enjoyed all 3 seasons of Ripper Street. Nothing else like it. I’m very glad there will be at least 2 more seasons. The characters, costumes and period sets are superb.
So very glad to hear there will be a season 4 & 5 of Ripper Street. I agree with previous comments. And to me the dialogue is brilliant..
So it seems we bid a fond farewell to Inspector Reid. The chemistry between Reid, Drake and Jackson was fabulous. If the programme is to continue on without Inspector Reid, he will surely be missed. I suppose we carry on with Inspector Drake and Capt. Jackson? Will Mr. Grace be stepping up? It won’t seem the same without Matthew Macfadyen’s educated and meticulous voice. I always looked forward to listening to him speak. Sighs. Has anyone heard anything about the 4th and 5th seasons? I love this programme. It’s my favourite time period in England. I am assuming that Inspector… Read more »
I think Ripper Street is an excellent show & would continue to entertain its fans for as many series as they can create & bring to television for all of us to enjoy. The story lines, the set, the magnificent actors- A fan couldn’t hope for better than what Ripper Street provides them in the realm of entertainment.
I love the show and I am glad the Amazon picked it up, I usually watched it on Netflix or BBC America, Season Three started on BBC America but I feel like I am missing some episodes. So I am going to see if I can catch up on Amazon or wait for it to get on Netflix.
Great News for a Season 4 and 5.
Good to know that Amazon and Netflix carries the show!
