(Disney+)
Looks like Disney+ isn’t going to the dogs. The streaming service has cancelled Turner & Hooch so we won’t be seeing a second season.
A comedy series, the Turner & Hooch TV show is a continuation of the 1989 movie of the same name. It stars Josh Peck, Carra Patterson, Lyndsy Fonseca, Vanessa Lengies, Brandon Jay McLaren, Jeremy Maguire, Anthony Ruivivar, Reginald VelJohnson, and Becca Tobin. In the show, ambitious and buttoned-up US Marshal Scott Turner (Peck) inherits a big, unruly, and slobbery French Mastiff named Hooch, much like his father (Tom Hanks in the movie) did. He soon realizes that the dog he didn’t want may actually be the partner that he needs. Scott’s family includes his sweet and animal-loving sister, Laura (Fonseca), and Matthew Garland (Maguire), Laura’s dog-loving son. At work, Scott’s brave and street-smart partner is Jessica Baxter (Patterson). Xavier Wilson (McLaren) is a cool and enigmatic marine-turned-US Marshal. Chief James Mendez (Ruivivar) is Scott’s boss who secretly has a soft spot for Hooch. Erica Mounir (Lengies) is the quirky head of the US Marshals’ dog training program.
The first season of 12 episodes debuted in July and finished being released in October. While the show seemed to be popular with Disney+ viewers, the Turner & Hooch series received mediocre reviews from most critics. Now, it appears that episode 12 was the end.
While Disney+ hasn’t announced the series has been cancelled, members of the cast don’t see it happening. McLaren responded to a viewer’s hope for season two and recurring actor Matt Hamilton retweeted it.

A veteran of the movie and the series, VelJohnson told ComicBook.com, “Well, as far as I know, they’re trying to sell it to another network or something like that. That’s what I heard. But as of now, it’s not going to be picked up, I don’t think. It was fun to do. And working with the actors was great fun and I hope so, whatever they decided to do I’m with it. It’s okay. I enjoy doing the sequel and, hopefully, we’ll have some time to do it again. But if not, I was glad for the experience.”
McLaren seems quite doubtful that the show will find a new home.

What do you think? Have you watched the Turner & Hooch TV series? Are you sorry that this Disney+ series seems to have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season?
We love turner and Hooch, hope it is renewed or picked up by another network. Who cares what the critics say, it is the viewers who watch the shows that count.
Watching the first season for a second time watching it with my eleven year old son we love it can’t wait for the second season
Please someone pick this up and run with it! T&H is a wonderful, funny, complete FAMILY show!! Family shoes are so hard to find that are genuine, funny, and G rated for all kids. Come on Disney+
Please, please bring turner and hooch back . Was bonding with my children with this show.
I’m really sad and very disappointed to hear there isn’t another season of Turner & Hooch. This is a show that my daughter and I have really enjoyed watching together. It is funny, clean and exciting. Please consider having a season two. I’m a kindergarten teacher and I think my class would really enjoy watching it as well. Some good clean fun for the family!
Please bring Turner & Hooch back!! My mom and I bond over this show and it’s one of the ONLY shows we have ever bonded over!! We’re currently rewatching season 1 in GREAT anticipation for season 2! Please please please bring it back!!!
I was really hoping for a season 2 – and 3,4,5… I Hope Disney+ change theire mind.
I’m very upset the series was canceled I was looking forward to season two I wish that Disney had advertised this series some more I think it would’ve gotten more views.
It’s a real shame Disney didn’t advertise this show. I watched the complete 1 season and my wife and I loved it. Every episode was an emotional roller coaster and was very entertaining. Too bad Disney doesn’t know epwhat a great show they have here.
Very upset that Turner & Hooch is cancelled. We looked forward to every Wednesday for a new episode and couldn’t wait for Season 2. Very sad and disappointed.☹
I’m hoping they is going to be another series at least we loved the 1st series
Please keep this show. My family and I all loved it. We need a second ++ season
