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?
Great show. I want more!
I also loved the show and would be very happy to see a season 2. I am rather tired to see that once again, a show of quality has been axed. Especially loved the Nun who was both a visual treat and an interesting character! Great humour in the show too.
Loved show. Would definitely watch a second season
unique story line, excellent writing, great acting, interesting characters, like mix of British and American actors, intelligent TV, Please Bring This Show Back.
I loved this show and would definitely watch a second season!!!
Bring it back, intelligent show…finally something different than the regular “crap” (csi, gray anatomy, bs, etc.) Sitcom.
Please, please, please come back! We loved this show! Too many loose endings!
Oh, come ON! Canceled? 96% of those polled want it back! I loved this series, as did absolutely everyone I’ve talked to about it!
Yes. I absolutely would. I loved it. Great characters, story and humor. It’s disappointing to me that it will not be renewed for a second season.
I absolutely LOVED You, Me and the Apocalypse. One of the funniest yet moving shows on TV. The acting was superb!! And the plot crazy fun.
So entertaining. Loved trying to follow and figure out the tangled web. Characters so well portrayed. Very distraught when I found out series would not be coming back.
With all the sci-fi drama series which ended so abruptly on all the major networks in the last five years has anyone come up with the notion to wrap them with one big show lasting one big season+ for an entire year? Example: Y,MatA, Revolution, V, Extant, Under the Dome, and Fringe, plus any others I may have overlooked. Thanks for reading my request.
Loved this quirky show! Can you bring back Rob Lowe?? Even as a ghost!!
I really loved the show. The chargers were great. The combination of British and American actors was excellent. The story arc was compelling enough to make me watch the series. Please reconsider and bring it back. Please, please, please. Thank you.
I am so disappointed that this show isn’t coming back for a second season! I didn’t know the show existed until I came across it on Hulu…and binge watched the entire season! It was so good. The characters were so diverse and interesting and the story plot kept evolving in unexpected ways. I really hope someone picks up this show to make a second season.
