While Mr. Selfridge has supposedly been renewed, BBC1 has pulled the plug on The Paradise. There won’t be a third season for the period drama.
The Paradise revolves around the people who work and shop at the first English department store. Set in 1875, castmembers have included Emun Elliott, Joanna Vanderham, Elaine Cassidy, Sarah Lancashire, Matthew McNulty, Peter Wight, David Hayman, Stephen Wight, Sonya Cassidy, Ruby Bentall, Finn Burridge, and Patrick Malahide.
Of the cancellation, a BBC spokesperson said, “We are incredibly proud to have made two successful series of period drama The Paradise for BBC1. However, in order to make room for new dramas to come through, The Paradise won’t be returning.”
The show airs on PBS here in the US and only the first season has been shown. That ended in November and there’s been no word of airing the second season yet.
What do you think? Have you seen The Paradise? Would you watch season two? Are you sorry it’s been cancelled?
I literally watched season 1 and 2 in a matter of two days! I LOVE the show!!! Please bring it back! I can’t wait to see what becomes of Denise’s venture, and want to see her relationship with John continue to grow!

I really miss The Paradise and the sweet stories it showed us. Please make season 3. It is much more interesting than Mr. Selfish series.
Please bring it back. Self ridge sucks.
It is so sad to hear they won’t be returning with a third season! The story isn’t finished!
I know I am a little late but, I’ve really enjoyed The Paradise, omg how they speak to one another, the love, the passion is just incredible.. How unfortunate there there will not be any more seasons.
I am extremely dissapointed that The Paradise has been canceled. I really enjoy watching shows that are wholesome and the characters are people you can relate to.
Please bring back a great series of wonderful period drama! It was so much better than Selfridge…
The petition on change.org is closed. So someone should make a new petition on change.org to bring The Paradise back for a third season or a one-off special.
