Renewals Galore PLUS one Cancellation (TV update)


So the critics hated, I thought it was interesting trash and got addictive but GYPSY is yet another Netflix series to call season one a day.

Still on Netflix they also renewed GLOW this week for a ten episode second season to air in 2018 and the unpopular with the critics IRON FIST was also surprisingly renewed for a second season.

Popular lady drug queen pin series, Queen of the South (currently airing) will return for a third season next US Summer.

I said only one cancellation but I thought it was only an event series, Twin Peaks will not return, sorry Stan in Australia for all the hype I'm not sure if Twin Peaks really delivered.

The brilliant Sunday nights on HBO will continue in 2018, BALLERS and INSECURE return for respective fourth and third seasons, YES!

So next Summer TV/Streaming will be busy. Thank goodness as Australian TV continues to go down a dark downward spiral. The recent reality TV show Hell's Kitchen Australia has been off to a bleak start, no magic million, no Australian Ninja Warrior excitement, just ending it's first week at 632,000 viewers. This show will more than likely start to see audiences around half a million I predict.

That said still to air in coming weeks:

Sunday (US):

Claws finale and it can end on a cliffhanger as the HBO rejected drama/comedy has been renewed for a second outting

Game of Thrones, how can it beat last weeks sensational episode? It returns for episode five, that means including this episode, three to go!!!

Ray Donovan, Ballers and Insecure also will be there to add to a beefy buffet of exceptional drama/comedy. Yes Australian networks, people still like well told stories not some fucking oddball celebrities cooking?

Next week:

It's finally here for Netflix, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Daredevil and Jessica Jones, The Defenders eight episode first season hits our screeen's.

Girlfriends Guide to Divorce is back for it's fourth season

And Late September/Early October:

How to Get Away with Murder (Season four), Legends of Tomorrow (Season three), The Flash (Season four) and the Dynasty remake launches, will it sink or swim?

So much to watch, so little time, enjoy the City to Surf tomorrow fellow runners!
