Suspicion will not be returning for a second season. Deadline reports that the streaming service quietly cancelled the Uma Thurman (above, right) drama a year ago.
Starring Thurman, Kunal Nayyar, Noah Emmerich, Georgina Campbell, Elyes Gabel, Elizabeth Henstridge, Tom Rhys-Harries, and Angel Coulby, the Apple TV+ series follows the kidnapping of the 21-year-old son of a businesswoman (Thurman) from New York City. The event is caught on camera, and the video goes viral. Five people have their lives turned upside down after London police identify them as suspects in the case.
The thriller series, inspired by the Israeli drama False Flag, was ordered in March 2020, but production was delayed until 2021 due to the pandemic. Rob Williams served as showrunner.
The eight-episode season arrived in February 2022. The show received generally positive reviews but some were unhappy with the ending. The season finale brought the story to a close so a potential second season would have likely had to focus on a new story.
What do you think? Did you watch the Suspicion TV series? Did you enjoy this thriller? Would you have checked out a second season?
Is it the first mediocre show from appletv to not have 3 seasons for no reason? surprising.
Have not seen it
It had potential but overall was a disappointment.
The fact that the ending bought the story to a close is a good thing. There is nothing as infuriating as seeing a show cancelled without any natural closure.
All season ending episodes should be shot with one that can close the show should it not be renewed.
Well it didn’t entirely bring it to a close, it definitely hinted at more story to come
