During season one on ABC, the Speechless TV show was a top-five ratings performer in the 18-49 demo and in the top 10, in terms of total audience size. Can this comedy retain or even build up its audience in its second season? Will Speechless be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned.
A family sitcom, Speechless, stars Minnie Driver, John Ross Bowie, Mason Cook, Micah Fowler, Kyla Kenedy, and Cedric Yarbrough. Maya DiMeo (Driver) is a no-nonsense mom who will do anything for her family: husband Jimmy (Bowie), brainy Ray (Mason Cook), athletic Dylan (Kyla Kennedy), and teenager JJ (Micah Fowler), who has cerebral palsy. In the second season on ABC, the kids are sailing uncharted waters; they are going to continue at the same school they attended, last year. Now this family needs to balance fun with the responsibility of taking on roles in their community. **Status update below.
