Underground wrapped its first season earlier this week with a shocking finale. The final moments of the episode introduced the real person behind the Underground Railroad, and she will be a big player in the action of season two.
The final scene of the finale featured Harriet Tubman. Check out video of the scene below.
Misha Green revealed to Deadline that Tubman will play a role in season two. She said:
“She’s definitely going to be a character that’s going to be coming in and out of our series, for sure.”
Joe Pokaski shared more about season two:
“Misha and I wanted to make sure we kept Season 1 personal, so it was about this group of seven slaves who want to be free. The whole idea within Season 2 is that now we can look at the Underground Railroad more as a network and the first integrated Civil Rights Movement in America. We want to explore the structure of it a little better in the next season, so our world, hopefully it’s going to get a little bigger. And in getting, bigger, there are so many stories all over the place to tell.”
Underground will return with its second season next year. Are you a fan of this series? Were you surprised by the finale appearance of Harriet? Tell us what you think.

Awesome t.v. can’t believe how great this series is can’t wait for seasons 2
It was my favorite television series for 2015/2016 period.
I loved the cliffhanger finale of Underground. What an evil, cold and vindictive woman the slave master’s wife turned out to be. Didn’t bat an eye when she told the head house slave that she was going to be sold away from her son. No wonder her husband sought solace in the arms of another woman. With the introduction of Harriet Tubman, I expect to see some Karma wreaked on the slaveholders and slave hunters alike. Harriet was a tough cookie who never lost a slave and never got caught leading slaves to the “Promised Land of Freedom.” I can’t… Read more »
Underground is the most compelling drama to come along in years. I am so glad is will be returning for a second season. I wish there were more ads on other networks to inform more people of it’s existence. I think if more people know about it the rating will continue to rise.
I have become completely lost in Underground. What a refreshing take on such a dark part of history. I love it and want it to keep going.
I absolutely can’t get enough of underground. It feeds my soul. So much so after the first episode I ordered incidents in the life of a slave girl. Please keep it coming
please don’t have us wondering what happens in family give it one more season
Why did ABC cancel The Family TV show and Castle. Who’s doing these changes? This is a great show. They are just going to loose me watching ABC.
Why on earth is wrong with ABC cancelling the family? It was the best series I have seen on ABC, I’m very disappointed don’t you see the ratings. Everyone I know watches it, ABC you made a very bad choice when you cancelled ithey had to tied up the show and the quick fix was bad! lose ends but it’s not over. You need to renew the series. I’m not going to watch anymore series that ABC puts on because you don’t know when you a good thong!
