FX has racked up some Nielsen ratings wins with anthology series like American Horror Story, American Crime Story, and Feud. Simon Beaufoy’s new Trust TV show is also an anthology about one family’s triumphs and tragedies. Should it get a renewal, each season will focus on a different chapter in the epic of the Getty family, of oil dynasty fame. How will their history — layered with wealth, power, and personal failings — play out on the small screen? Will Trust be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
The first, 10-episode season of Trust stars Donald Sutherland as J. Paul Getty Sr., Michale Esper as J. Paul Getty Jr., Harris Dickinson as John Paul Getty III, Hilary Swank as Gail Getty, and Brendan Fraser as James Fletcher Chace. The FX anthology drama kicks off in 1973, in Rome, when the Italian mafia kidnaps young heir John Paul Getty III. Due to their hostage’s pedigree, the kidnappers expect a handsome ransom, but they never anticipated how this family’s issues would complicate their plot. While grandfather J. Paul Getty is ensconced in the English countryside, and the boy’s father, J. Paul Getty Jr., is lost in a London fog of his own making, John Paul’s mother, Gail, is left to negotiate with her son’s abductors, and she’s flat broke.

What do you think? Do you like the Trust TV series? Should FX cancel or renew this TV show for season two?
Update: FX Has not renewed the Trust TV show for a second season.
Good show, but since the nephew was returned, I don’t see what they could cover in a second season. The season finale pretty much wrapped things up.
I loved season 1. And would love to see the second and third season!!!! The actors did an aweaome job and tbe writers were phenomenal!!!! Plse continue the 2nd and 3rd season!!!
I vote definitely YES to more seasons!
I didn’t even know anything about this until yesterday so I binge-watched 9 episodes and I can’t wait for episode 10. The soundtrack and the first 5 minutes of Trust had me hooked!! I LOVE FX and I can’t wait for Pose!
Awesome!! I vote YES to all 5 seasons!!!
Best drama of the decade!!!
Got me drooling for the next episode!!!!
Once you start watching the show you can’t take your eyes off of the tv!!
Great series!!! One of the best in years!! Could really see it being best drama series of the year!!! Can’t wait to see the next season!!!!
Oops I forgot to say, “I vote “YES PLEASE” to season 2!
I LOVE THIS SHOW! It’s definitely 1 of my FAVORITE T.V shows. But I do wish there had been less Italian language; Only because I only speak English, & I cannot relax & enjoy T.V if I have to constantly read through the whole entire show. I do not watch anything that I have to read through the entire show, and I would prefer not to have to read through 1/2 of the program.
Half the show is not in Italian. It makes it more authentic. My god you people are lazy.
This show had so mech potential but reading subtitles through half the show is ridiculous if I want to read I would have read the book And it’s gotten extremely boring my vote no season two
First few shows were interesting then it all went down hill…..very annoying now….
Incredible series so far. Hope FX gets some good streaming deals off this one because it’s a heater and deserves to be seen. Cool to see all these True Crime recreations with Paramount Network’s ‘Waco’, FX’s ‘ACS: The Assassination of Gianni Versace’, and on and on. 2018 is going well for TV.
