What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the Spike cable channel, The Mist stars Morgan Spector, Alyssa Sutherland, Gus Birney, Danica Curcic, Okezie Morro, Luke Cosgrove, Darren Pettie, Russell Posner, Dan Butler, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and Frances Conroy. After the Copeland family’s daughter is brutalized, an ominous mist overwhelms the town of Bridgeville, Maine. In the mist are countless, confusing, and concerning threats. Family, friends, and even enemies form unusual alliances, as they fight the enigmatic mist and the threats therein. Whether they will be able to remain moral and sane — as the fabric of society unravels — remains to be seen.

As of September 28, 2017, The Mist is cancelled. There will be no season two. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
It’s tough to use the ratings to predict if Spike will cancel or renew The Mist for season two because they don’t have other scripted shows. Spike is rebranding as Paramount Network in 2018. Also, its parent company — Viacom — has been shifting shows around from other channels like TV Land, to build up the Spike/Paramount scripted slate. Flying a bit blind, I expect The Mist will score a second season renewal. In April, Kevin Kay, President of Spike/Paramount Network, TV Land and CMT even said season two is possible. I will update this page with any new developments. Subscribe for free updates on any cancellation or renewal news about The Mist.
9/28 update: While possibilities may be endless, this show is not. The Mist is cancelled. There will be no season two of this Spike TV series. Details here. Now it is time for me to dash (and dine).

What do you think? Do you hope The Mist TV series will be renewed for a second season? How would you feel if Spike cancelled this TV series, instead?
It’s great we enjoyed every episode and wanted to move straight onto watching reason 2. (Yes the gay bit was bit naff as others have said, didn’t flow well ) . Were gutted to see there’s no 2nd series. Good acting, yes no creepy creatures yet but still held our attention well. Give these actors another chance they’ve done so well. Surely if publicised more figures would grow. We only found out due to younger daughter mentioning it was on Netflix. Didn’t even know had been on spike. Would be great to have season 2 please ☺
I will not watch another spike TV series. Finish the story at least with a season 2
I think it was canceled because it veered way too far from the movie, which I enjoyed even though the ending was very disturbing, effective, but disturbing. Whereas the movie was pure sci-fi & horror with some truly scary creatures, the series went off base with the whole gay campaign thingy and only sporadic peeks at the way too human-like creatures
Its such a good show. Is there any hope another network could pick it. This can’t be the end !
Hopefully Netflix will since its on Netflix now.
I love the show. It is good, better than Under the Dome. I want a second season.
Anything is better than Under The Dome….that show was also a failure. But The Mist is bad….we don’t need a second season. Maybe someday someone will make a better adaptation of The Mist.
I NEED a second season. There are still so many options for the storyline to continue. Something in my heart says Jay isn’t even dead. We saw him ‘die’ but he had white eyes, just like Alex was having. I need answers and I need a next season
I loved it! Can’t wait to see the second season 🙂
It deserves a second season, too many shows nowadays are never given a chance. This one has only just begun
It has only just started… I was like where is the rest of season 1??
I really enjoy the mist and would be pissed if it were not to get to season 2 very pissed off
It’s a great show and I would definitely be waiting for a second season
First season started quite well, pushed thru the mid season strong enough but faded some. I think there is still good potential but if they dont come up stronger they should seriously consider closing it at the end of season 2
just start adding real monsters already, no one cares about the “the humans are the real monsters” BS. We all started watching this because we were interested in some deeper lore and creepy crawler from the novel and movie. Instead we got something completely different, about a bunch of people we could never learn to like or root for.
Ill tell you this, its a SUCKY Mist TV series, but could be a decent Silent Hill series.
ROFL This is exactly what I think
Please renew The Mist it’s a great show and so much more storyline to tell
Season 2 would be nice……but they will probably leave us hanging just like with season 2 of Incorporated….or V, or Dead like me, or all the other awesome tv programs that there have been. They would rather make more stupid reality shows that are not reality at all. I would rather watch fiction that I know is fiction than to have staged distorted reality made for drama.
