TV show description:
This fantasy adventure series is based on the young adult fantasy book series by Cassandra Clare, The Mortal Instruments.
On her 18th birthday, Clary Fray (Katherine McNamara) is celebrating at the Pandemonium, a New York City nightclub. While there, she sees a group of teenagers with supernatural abilities attacking a demon who’s entered the club. She realizes that she is the only person who can see them.
Her mother Jocelyn (Maxim Roy) later explains that she comes from a long line of Shadowhunters — human-angel hybrids who hunt down demons. While trying to protect Clary, her mother is kidnapped by a demon so Clary must join the group of Shadowhunters to save her. Along the way, Clary discovers that she has amazing powers she didn’t know that she had.
Thrown into the world of demon-hunting, Clary relies on mysterious Jace Wayland (Dominic Sherwood), and siblings Isabelle and Alec Lightwood (Emeraude Toubia and Matthew Daddario) to navigate this new dark world.
With her best friend Simon Lewis (Alberto Rosende) along for the ride, Clary must now live among faeries, warlocks, vampires and werewolves to find answers that could help her find her mother.
Nothing is as it seems. Her close family friend, Luke Garroway (Isaiah Mustafa), knows more than he’s telling. Meanwhile, enigmatic warlock Magnus Bane (Harry Shum, Jr.) may hold the key to unlocking Clary’s past.

What do you think? Do you like the Shadowhunters TV show? Do you think it should have ended or been renewed for a fourth season?
Shadowhunters has so much potential to be huge!! The characters are so well developed and many more characters in the books to bring to the show. Please renew!!
I think it should be renewed. It just got so much better with each episode, with each season. It has such a large fan base, scattered all over the world. They just recently won 4 people’s choice awards, that were nominated by the fans. Originally it was only nominated for sci-fi show. It won show of 2018, bingeworthy show and both female and male tv stars awards. They deserve a fourth season.
Please don’t cancel Shadow Hunters.
We just started watching Shadow hunters and I have to say the first two season’s were awful and full of bad acting BUT season 3 has turned out to be the best one yet. It’s sad it’s being cancelled when it was finally getting good.
Sure hope it can be renewed, love the show…
Liked the show please do not cancel it.
I really enjoyed the show since it originally aired. I am so disappointed that it is being cancelled. But I am glad that it is been given a finale.. Cant wait to see it!
This is a really good tv show. It’s a shame it apparently won’t have any new episodes. I certainly hope another network will decide to renew Shadowhunters.
I love the book series and really I have been waiting for the next part. I like the slight alterations in the show and think it can get really good if they would only give it a chance. I rarely watch freeform at all most of their shows are lacking and if they are going to be like Fox what is the point of watching the shows when they are going to cancel it when it gets less ratings than they like. I work a lot and I may not view it on the day it airs but I do… Read more »
Needs to be renewed for sure.
It’s one thing to cancel a show but to leave it’s ending hanging for a year that’s just ridiculous! Why not just let the second half of the third season run it’s course starting in August and be done with it. I really fed up with Freeform’s program handling I may just stop watching all shows on Freeform.
THANK GOD!!! I’m soooo happy this show got canceled. Honestly, I’m surprised it lasted this long. Terrible acting. Terrible storyline. Just awful. Now please fill it with something good.
keep this show please I ;love its great and at 65 yrs old ,I know whats good
I watch shadowhunters in the summer, even tho I have to watch it from the beginning as I forget what happened. I think it’s a welcome change as isn’t campy as this genre can get. If you liked the Buffy series, you’ll like this.
WHAT!!!! Please don’t cancel this awesome show!!! You need to make the whole Mortal Instruments series.
The Mortal Instruments Failed as a Movie and as a TV Series. I guess it really was that bad after all.
Maybe its the writing or directing. Who knows for sure, but its too bad its cancelled. They could have done so much more with it.
