Last summer, FOX launched Wayward Pines. The network announced that the last episode of the season was the “series finale” but later decided to order a second season anyway. Was that move a mistake? Should Wayward Pines be renewed for a third season?
On Wayward Pines, the residents of the town must battle against the iron-fisted rule of the First Generation. Doctor Theo Yedlin (Jason Patric) is a new resident of the community. He awakens from suspended animation and finds himself in the middle of this rebellion. He tries to understand what Wayward Pines really is and while helping to preserve the endangered human race. The rest of the cast includes Djimon Hounsou, Nimrat Kaur, Josh Helman, Kacey Rohl, Tom Stevens, Hope Davis, Shannyn Sossamon, Carla Gugino, Toby Jones, Tim Griffin, Charlie Tahan, Melissa Leo, and Terrence Howard.
The first season of Wayward Pines drew a 1.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.82 million viewers. Season two has been way down, garnering a 0.7 rating in the demo with 2.41 million.
M. Night Shyamalan has said that he’d like the show to run for three seasons but, with ratings like these, it seems unlikely that the network will order season three.
But, what do you think? Should FOX renew Wayward Pines for a third season or, should the series be cancelled instead? Is two seasons enough?
Yes, would like to see this one renewed.
SEASON 3, SEASON 3, SEASON 3- WAYWARD PINES! SEASON 3.
YEP, IT’S ADDICTING FOR SURE.
YOU GO M.NIGHT!!!!
Definitely renew for a third season. I enjoyed the watching each and every episode; each episode left me in suspense; anticipated watching the next one.
And like Karen, I want to see them get the best of the creatures.
Renew season three i have seen one and two and enjoyed it would like too see what happens when they awaken and get back at those creatures in the final series
Yes please give us season 3
Season one was great had to see what was next Matt Dillon Great cast. And I’m not a fan of Dillon. Season two was lacking the chemistry of season one. If can cast better for season three could recapture the fire of season one.
Absolutely renew!!!Even more than three!!!
I Totally agree!
Wayward Pines needs to be renewed- even past Season 3.
Maybe a Once a week drama primetime show.
OH YES!!!!!
Loved wayward pines and hope there is a season 3 renew renew renew this show!!’
season 3 Fox has made so many mistakes cancelling shows we want here is a chance to stop being idiots
Agreed 100%!!!
If TV shows were done like they were in the past not so many good shows would get canceled. Today a season is typically 10 shows and then you have to wait 6 months to a year for the next season. Viewers loose interest and don’t remember some details that might be important to the plot and forget about the show. Shame on the networks!!!
I enjoyed it, so would want to see it renewed.
RENEW! Bring it back!!! LOVED the second season. It built tension slowly, but the finale was incredible, lifting the second season overall to be even better than the first. Bravo to the writing team!! As for performances, Jason Patric is great and the sleeper with a plus in the finale was…Kacey Rohl. Flat out amazing performances by Jason Patric and Kacey Rohl in the season finale!!!!
I was a HUGE FAN of Season One! I understand it took the show almost 2 years to make it to TV, that’s plenty of time to craft the perfect season. but It was almost scary how quickly I lost interest in Season 2. I’m not sure how the season ended with the main character, but recast! They have a great chance of getting a A-List Actor to commit to 10 episodes. Then i would be willing to grudge watch Season 2
It’s an interesting story. Please lets here the story to the end.
Please renew great show
This show is definitely a Keeper. It stands out as Unique among the cookie cutter shows of similar genre that we see on TV today.
True Sci Fi has it’s basis in social commentary, ie. the novels by Issac Asimov.
What is humanity? Is one of the questions addressed by this series. Season 3 has the potential to be amazing. Hopefully this show will be given the chance to exhibit how great it can be.
