Krypton Season 3: Renewed By Syfy?

Unfortunately, Syfy canceled the series after the second installment in August 2019, 2 months after the second installment’s premiere. The second installment witnessed a huge drop in the ratings and viewership. The first season engrossed a viewership of 790,000. 

Unfortunately, the second installment saw a drop of 48% in the show’s audience. Morover, there was a 54% drop in the ratings as compared to the first season. Kryton is rated 6.9/10 on IMDB and 80% on Rotten Tomatoes. Thus, the below-average rating was one of the reasons the network decided not to go ahead with Krypton Season 3. 

Moreover, the second season’s storyline came as a big disappointment for the dedicated Superman fans. With no Superman in the series, fans decided to distance themselves slowly from the series. Hence, given the present circumstances, it is highly unlikely that the series would return for a third installment in the future.
