Although it was first planned as mini-series, SundanceTV and the BBC renewed the Top of the Lake TV show for a second season, and production kicked off back in January of 2016. Can SundanceTV’s “three night event” woo back the American audience after a four year hiatus? Will Top of the Lake be cancelled or renewed for season three? Stay tuned.
A mystery crime drama, the Top of the Lake TV series stars Elizabeth Moss as Detective Robin Griffin. In “China Girl” — the second season — the SundanceTV cast also includes Kip Chapman, Jacqueline Joe, Ewen Leslie, Clayton Jacobson, Nicole Kidman, Gwendoline Christie, Alice Englert, David Dencik, Anjee Douangphoumy, Elaine Crombie, Merlynn Tong, Lincoln Vickery, Byron Coll, Ling Cooper Tang, and Ben Wood.
Top of the Lake: “Little China Girl,” is set in Sydney Australia, four years after the events of the first season. When an unidentified Asian girl’s corpse washes up on Bondi Beach, Griffin partners with Sydney Police Constable Miranda Hilmarson (Christie), on the investigation. Although the case seems impossible at first, Griffin gets a break when she realizes someone was with “China Girl,” when she perished.

What do you think? Do you like the Top of the Lake TV series? Should it be cancelled or renewed for a third season on SundanceTV?
Top of the Lake is an excellent show. I really really really want a season 3 with Elizabeth Moss. She’s gotten herself up there with Meryl Streep….and that’s saying something
Please renew for season 3
Yes yes!! Please. So well acted.
I just stumbled upon this series on Hulu and I’m hopelessly in love with it! I really hope there is a third installment, and a fourth….
There needs to be a season 3. I feel like there is more to come for Robin. You have just scratched the surface!
I loved Top of the Lake. Elisabeth Moss is an amazing actor. I do hope that there is a season 3 with her as the main character. I just hope the Creator makes season 3 challenging enough to lure her back for the main role
Top of the lake is must-see TV I do hope there is a season 3 WITH Elisabeth Moss
Me too! I love Elizabeth Moss & I’d love her to settle down with Marys Dad and have a life w/her daughter! Plus they never solved the murder in Season 2!
Started out good now it’s too complex. What ever happend simplicity?
One of the best series I’ve ever watched! Elisabeth Moss is outstanding. So hoping for season 3.
I think Top of the Lake is a very intelligent mystery. I’m hoping it will be renewed.
Love this show! Really hoping for a third season!!
