Tonight marks the end of the first season of You, Me and the Apocalypse on NBC. Is the Thursday night series coming back? Would you watch season two?
A dramatic comedy, You, Me and the Apocalypse revolves around the last days of mankind. It’s discovered that a comet is on a collision course with earth in 34 days and an unexpected chain of events is set in motion. The cast includes Mathew Baynton, Joel Fry, Pauline Quirke, Jenna Fischer, Kyle Soller, Rob Lowe, Gaia Scodellaro, Paterson Joseph, Megan Mullally, Diana Rigg, and Fabian McCallum.
A UK co-production, this series first aired on Sky 1 in late 2015. While it seemed like the series was envisioned as a “one season show”, the door was left open for a second season.
When the series didn’t perform very well for NBC here in the States, that seems to have closed the door on the prospects for a second season and You, Me and the Apocalypse was “cancelled“. The loose ends in the finale may never be tied up.
But, what do you think? Would you have watched a second season? Are you satisfied with the way the show ended?
Yes. Loved the show. Bring back a second season! 🙂
Yes, i would have been glad for a season 2
best show I have seen in a long time. megan gets an emmy aat least
I loved this show, the cast and all the kooky plot lines! I’d pay good money to see this story go on and on and on until the real Apocolypse. There’s so much material to work with! With so many pitiful excuses for entertainment, this was a joy to watch!
So very disappointed this isn’t coming back. Looked forward to watching and sick of networks only giving one season to see if the show gets the following they want. Try sticking with a series long enough to get a following. Bring it back!
We love this show, who’s in the box???, is the priest really dead??? Jamie left outside, will he live. Come on !!! Get to writing!!!!
I need season 2 I need to know WHOS IN THE BOX?!
Season 2? YES!!!!! Most definitely would watch.
I can’t believe the shows that are still on, and they cancel this one. I knew something was up, when Rob Lowe’s character hung himself..or did he? PLEASE give this show a second chance.
Father Jude didn’t kill himself. The Vatican officials he met with earlier in the day agreed to get rid of him when he refused to keep their secret – that they were intending to present a false messiah.
This was one of my favorite tv shows. Please renew it. Perhaps offer the whole first season for others to discover. I am going to miss this. It had a great cast!
sad it will be over.
There are just so many cliffhangers unresolved. Loved God as a proper old English lady. Season 2 is a must!
Please renew!! The entire family dropped everything Thursday nights to watch it. What a funny,wacky set of plotlines. I just bought Season 1 on Amazon so at least we can re watch it. Amazing ensemble cast.
I am really upset that the show wasn’t given a second season! I loved this show and looked forward to it each week. It was so clever and unpredictable. Maybe if enough people speak out, it will be picked up by Hulu or Amazon or another subscription service that has more balls than NBC.
We’re just watching the final episode, and have thoroughly enjoyed the series – would most definitely have watched a second season! Sooo sad to see it has not been renewed. Brilliant, funny, sweet and clever writing
I loved this show. It was strange, compelling, I could not take my eyes off it. And visually stunning sometimes. So many unexpected things. It is a shame it is canceled, maybe it will come back through another outlet. I am so over cope, shows, forensics, hospital dramas. YM&A was refreshing.
