In the irony of ironies, FOX has not given Second Chance a second chance. Buzzfeed News reports the network has cancelled the drama after one season.
The freshman series starred Robert Kazinsky as a resurrected cop. Philip Baker Hall, Tim DeKay, Dilshad Vadsaria, and Adhir Kalyan also starred.
After going through several title changes, Second Chance didn’t seem to catch on with viewers. Season one ratings averaged a .64 in the 18-49 demo and a total of 2.430 million viewers.
Kazinsky confirmed the cancellation on his Twitter:
Shame that @secondchancefox won't get a second season, even bigger shame that we heard about it online.

What do you think? Did you watch Second Chance? Do you think it deserves a second chance?
Bring back this show if possible. It’s great, and I just found it on Hulu! I do think it needs a better name, because I almost didn’t try it. Great cast, great premise, great show. This is one of those shows that I would have watched for years if available. Also something that we both like to watch (which is rare). Thanks to all who were in it.
This show is great because it is about a very masculine superhero – not just male, but MASCULINE. Come to think of it, there are actually a lot of masculine superheroes on TV, but they are all female. Having a lead character who is both male and masculine is rare, but add to that the fact that he is a superhero, and you have a combination of traits that is absolutely unheard of in the U.S.A. The only other masculine male superhero series I know of is Turkey’s “The Protector,” which is produced outside of the U.S.A.’s intolerant, censorship culture.
I just finished season one of second chance only to find out it had been cancelled and there is no season 2.. that really sucks as this was an awesome show. Also realized it was from 2016. Never heard of it before as I do not have cable. Not available in my area. I only have Hulu and Netflix. Really wish they would have continued on with this series as it was very great.
This show was amazing and interesting I’ve gotten so many of my family and friends hooked on this show!! It’s such a shame that you start a season and dont even finish it or assume others do not want to watch it. This show should definitely have a second season its shameful to see such good shows being put to waist when clearly people are wanting more!!
Yes, absolutely it needs a second season. It was unusual and interesting.
Its a great program you need to start season 2 please
Yes this is a great show and it definitely needs a Second Season. What shame that Fox doesn’t take into consideration what viewers like .
Yes it needs a second season
I swear, these shows get added to Hulu or a streaming service, where people can stumble on them, (lets be real do 18-49 really watch anything on tv anymore?) we try it out it’s great we binge the hell out of it to find out that the show aired a few years prior had decent but not great numbers so it was axed…. this has happened to me 10+ times I. The last 2 years, the issue isn’t that the shows aren’t good enough, the network exposure isn’t good enough. By the time people hear about it and check it… Read more »
I do agree with everything Jimbo said
That’s where I’m at now. I love Tim Dekay from White Collar, and just stumbles on this show. Only watched episodes 1 & 2 so far, but it’s sad that I only have the rest of this series to look forward to
I just got done watching the first season of second chance I finished it in two days because I couldn’t stop watching it and I believe that there should be a season two or three or four I want to know how everything ends and I loved watching second chance And I believe it should be renewed
It should have been renewed!! This is a great show!!
it is so disappointing that such a great show has to be cancelled,,,story line was great and actors too, so informative…please bring back second chance we love it…..
I love this show I just started watching it on Hulu and I absolutely hate that I keep finding wonderful shows with new innovative characters and story lines so interesting I get lost in them just to find out they’ve been cancelled please give second Chance a second chance and bring it back. Thank you
I found Second Chance on Hulu.
I and my husband have been watching for 4 days. I can Not believe that Fox would cancel such a good show. It had a great story line, good actors, and was ENJOYED. I’ve seen shows stay on for YEARS and NO ONE watched them. You should at least bring the Show back let the public decide if you should cancel it.
I can not believe my eyes! This is such a great show…I pray some other network picks it up! I Love it!
