(BBC America)
Airing on BBC America, The Watch TV show is inspired by the Discworld novels by Sir Terry Pratchett. Will the show be successful enough in the ratings so that more of this fantasy story can be told? Will The Watch be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
A police procedural series of sorts, The Watch stars Richard Dormer, Lara Rossi, Adam Hugill, Marama Corlett, Jo Eaton-Kent, Wendell Pierce, Samuel Adewunmi, Matt Berry, Anna Chancellor, and Bianca Simone Mannie, with James Fleet, Ralph Ineson, Hakeem Kae-Kazim, Paul Kaye, Ruth Madeley, and Ingrid Oliver. Set in the fictional Discworld’s principal city of Ankh-Morpork, the story follows an unlikely group of misfits called The City Watch. They are forced to find the courage to save the world and surprise even themselves in the process. The series pits trolls, werewolves, wizards, and other improbable heroes against an evil plot to resurrect a great dragon which would lead to the destruction of life as they know it. Characters include leader Sam Vimes (Dormer); the last scion of nobility, Lady Sybil Ramkin (Rossi); naïve but heroic Constable Carrot (Hugill); mysterious Corporal Angua (Corlett); ingenious forensics expert Constable Cheery (Eaton-Kent); and the voice of Death (Pierce).

What do you think? Do you like The Watch TV series on BBC America? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
An absolute disgraceful attempt, STP would be turning in his grave at this horror show!! Its as though the writers never read the books, they read the dust jacket & just lifted the characters names. The fact STP’s family want no association says alot!!!
Continue please
cancel this, then take it out behind the barn and shoot it. These idiot producers have absconded with the work of Sir Terry Pratchett, A British humorist on a level with P.G. Wodehouse, Monty Python and George MacDonald Frasier and make it into A disgraceful hackwork. Have you seen Sir Terry’s and Neil.Bailey’s ‘Strange Omens’ mini.series? That’s the production level The Watch deserves…not this thing. I’ve seen incontinent dogs leave better creation on the asphalt.
I liked it. My husband and I would like to see a Season 2
Cancel please. Thanks.
This series is the main reason I signed up for AMC+ I probably won’t keep it if they cancel it.
I really don’t care about zombies.
2nd series please
worth a second season
