The cast of Togetherness could be getting back together. Amanda Peet, star of the cancelled HBO series, recently spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the show’s end and its possible future.
Togetherness stars Peet, Mark Duplass, Melanie Lynskey, and Steve Zissis as two couples balancing their work with their personal lives. HBO cancelled the show after two seasons.
Speaking to THR, Peet said she was moved by the fans’ reaction to the series ending:
People are so amazing and sweet and some people are even angry, which I find to be really moving. It feels really good because we were all so sad and we were, just sad. So it was very nice to have this sort of outpouring of sympathy and frustration from our fans.”
She added that the cast and creators are “game” to continue the show in some way:
Well, we’re all game, that’s for sure. I think you’d have to talk to Mark and Jay. I don’t know exactly what their plans are. We’re just totally in love with them, all of us, it’s almost annoying. [Laughs] If they just told me, “I have some idea and we’re gonna shoot it, but there’s no script and you have to leave your kids and do you want to come?” I’d probably be like, “Yes, just tell me where to be. Tell me where to be, and what you’d like me to be like and what clothes to bring and I’ll be there. Or if you want me to be naked, I’ll be naked. Whatever you want.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Togetherness? Would you like to see the series continue?
I really love this show. It’s my favourite at the moment. My favourite shows are always cancelled after the second season. And the ones i don’t like seem to go on forever. It’s really pretty sad…..
I thought the show was EXCELLENT. Honest, well written and wonderfully acted. I am very surprised it was canceled. I thought it was one of TVs best offerings.
Netflix or one of the other outlets should pick up this show if HBO doesn’t have the business foresight to order another season. Frankly, earth HBO showing so many older films the desperately need good programming. Unfortunately, they can’t recognize it when they see it.
I loved this show and thought it was very real and raw. I was stunned by the sudden cancellation. Please, please please do a season 3!!
I like the show. I would like to continue watching it.
