As a paid premium cable network, Starz is not a slave to the Nielsen ratings, the way broadcast and basic cable networks must be. Still, they have to retain and attract new subscribers, so the popularity of their TV shows still matters. Could The White Princess TV show — a sequel to The White Queen mini-series of 2013 — reign long on Starz? Could there be a second season, some sort of sequel series or, will there be just eight episodes? Stay tuned.
The White Princess stars Jodie Comer as Princess Elizabeth of York and Jacob Collins-Levy as King Henry VII. The Starz cast also includes Essie Davis, Joanne Whalley, Michelle Fairley, Suki Waterhouse, Rebecca Benson, Rhys Connah, Caroline Goodall, Kenneth Cranham, and Vincent Regan. Beginning in 1485, the series tells the end of the saga of England’s War of the Roses and follows the rise of the House of Tudor, as well as the stormy marriage of Elizabeth of York to Henry Tudor.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like The White Princess TV show? Should the series return for a second season or some sort of sequel?
6/5/17 update: It was revealed that thesere won’t be a second season of The White Princess. Details here.
I like the white princess very much. It seem every time I find something I like they thank it off the air. I pay a two hundred dollar a month direct TV bill and Amy thinking I will just cancel my service after over 11 years
Yes there should be a season 2. I missed The White Queen also.
I enjoyed both. I still watch repeatedly on demand.
I waited and waited to see if there was a sequel to the white queen. Now I’m praying for a sequel for The White Princess. Please do another one
There’s so much more that happens after the last show. I think it should be a series of their entire life and events..
I am so upset that it was cancelled. Between learning the history and Lizzie and Henry’s performance I am at a total loss as to what is going. Some of the junk that has been renewed is shocking and then to cancel The White Princess is unreal. Bringing back the White Queen is also shocking all that was in my opinion was soft porn. I was getting sick of watching bare butts and boobs.
