(Netflix)
Territory will not be returning for a second season. Netflix has cancelled the Australian Western drama series after just one season, according to C21 Media. The show’s six episodes were released in October.
Anna Torv, Michael Dorman, Robert Taylor, and Sam Corlett star in the series, which follows the Lawson family, which owns the world’s largest cattle station, Marianne Station. After the favored son dies under mysterious circumstances, many try to take the ranch from the family.
Netflix’s director of content for ANZ, Que Min Luu, said the following about the cancellation of Territory:
“We are incredibly thankful to have had the chance to work with the wonderful cast and production team to bring Territory and the stunning Australian outback into the homes of millions around the world. Although we won’t be continuing with another season, we eagerly anticipate working with all of them again in the future.”
Those involved with the series, including Easy Tiger CEO Rob Gibson and Ronde Media CEO and co-creator Ben Davies, also spoke about it. They said, “We’re incredibly proud of the series and its success and grateful to the amazing writers, cast, and creatives.”
What do you think? Did you watch Territory on Netflix? Did you want to see a second season?
Loved the series! Cannot understand why it was cancelled. PLEASE BRING IT BACK!
I’m definitely disappointed just watched the first season and I think the show had a lot going on and it really represented all of the characters involved, especially the native population and showed us a lot of the beauty of the country really really upset about this. I think the series had a lot of places to go and showed a lot of personal problems and issues and reflection, and I’m just really upset about it
I’m truly DISAPPOINTED THAT THERE WILL NOT BE A SEASON TWO!! Excellent story line and it could gone many places with the theme! I’m American and love shows about hard work and the frontier – BEAUTIFUL Country!!!
Why wouldn’t they let it continue on to second season if netflix is being like this then I’m cancelling my subscription im not supporting America owned crap app anymore America can get stuffed we don’t need them in Australia
Loved it and wanted more:(
Enjoyed the show and the cast was great. Was hoping it would continue.
I stumbled upon this series and thought to give it a go. I have to say for someone who has worked on a station and still working in the outback I found it to be an amazing series. The issues around indigenous integration is a true reflection on what is going on in the remote communities as well as the respect of areas of importance for the indigenous Australians. This series needs to continue.
My husband and I watched the six episodes of territory in two days. We loved it! Got on the Internet to see when the second season was due out and sadly found it was canceled. Why would Netflix cancel this amazing show!? my first thought was possibly competition with Yellowstone? Who cares! there’s room for more westerns out there in our viewing world. Especially one that is so well acted and believable. There were so many twists and turns and storylines. It’s crazy how one can get so invested into great characters! I’ll be holding out hope that either Netflix… Read more »
I thoroughly enjoyed this show and thought for sure this will return for a second season. I hope another streaming service picks this up. As many people have said and I agree we are bombarded with American shows, once just for once I finally found a decent Australian show I enjoyed.
This show was great a really strong first season. Someone at Netflix really dropped the ball. What a waste of really good show someone at Netflix needs to fired.
Great Series! Thoroughly enjoyed it. Shortsighted cancellation indeed
I’m really disappointed that this series has been cancelled. I was very much looking forward to season 2. It was great being able to watch something that showcased our beautiful country and what it can be like to live in our rural areas. It also showcased a little of what life used to be like for some growing up. Why do we always have to be bombarded by series that are set in the US primarily? As a rural Western Australian I thoroughly enjoyed watching Territory. So I hope and pray that it returns to our televisions!
Actually liked it. Thought it was well done and Acting was good. Disappointed there’s no second season.
