Agatha Raisin (2014) – Neither confirmed nor cancelled, but with no word on more since early 2022, it doesn't look great.

Alex Rider (2020) – Though based on the young adult novels by Anthony Horowitz (Foyle's War), this series was appealing to a great many adults as well.

Avoidance (2022) – There haven't been any official announcements as of late August 2024 – but with all the major storylines wrapped up, that might indicate that they either didn't think it likely they'd get another season, or that they never planned to do another.

Baby Reindeer (2024) – Limited series, not expected to return.

Back (2017) – There have been no official updates since the second season aired in 2021. It's not looking good for season 3, but you never know.

Black Doves (2024) – Expected December 5th on Netflix. Casting sites have begun picking up news of a season 2 production, so it sounds likely to return.

Black Mirror (2016) – Netflix is actively working on season 7 as of autumn 2024.

The Buccaneers (2023) – Apple TV+ renewed the series almost immediately after the first season, and season 2 went into production during 2024.

Buffering (2021) – The series was cancelled after season 2. No word on US availability as of September 2024.

The Burning Girls (2023) – Based on CJ Tudor's novel of the same name, we haven't seen a renewal or cancellation as of September 2024 (though many non-series book adaptations are limited to a single series, so it's possible we'll never hear anything).

Chivalry (2022) – Channel 4 cancelled the series after a single season, but Steve Coogan and Sarah Solemani have been developing it. If another network is willing to take it on, it could see more episodes – but we don't recommend holding your breath.

Clarkson's Farm (2021) – In November 2023, this docu-series was renewed for a fourth season. No word yet on premiere dates.

Dodger (2022) – After season 1, this Oliver Twist prequel had an additional four specials through 2023.

Fifteen Love (2023) – As of early September 2024, we haven't seen any news of renewal or cancellation.

Finding Alice (2021) – ITV confirmed in 2021 that there would be a second season and it was due to film in February 2022, but it was later announced that the plans had been scrapped. Some sources suggest this was due to issues with cast availability.

Flack (2019) – Though Amazon rescued this series from cancellation and left some possible plot threads for a third season, we haven't seen any updates in a few years – so it's not looking good for a season 3 (as of September 2024).

Flesh & Blood (2020) – Though the show left plot strands that would have made a second season relatively easy, we've never been able to find any official renewal or cancellation announcement. Four years on, it looks pretty unlikely.

Four Lives (aka The Barking Murders) (2022) – Miniseries, not expected to return.

Frank of Ireland (2021) – As of September 2024, we haven't seen any updates on the status of this series – though after 3 years with no updates, it doesn't look good.

The Full Monty (2023) – Disney+ has still not commented publicly about a second season as of July 2024, but since three major characters would be unable or unlikely to return, it would be a very different series.

As of late October 2024, the future remains uncertain. Some casting sites have updated the status for the production as “active” with a shooting date of January 2025, but we won't take that too seriously until we see on-set photos or an official announcement from Amazon or a major cast member.
