The 100 is an American sci-fi post-apocalyptic drama TV series. Joose Rothenberg developed this show, based on Kass Morgan’s novel series of the same title. The inaugural episode came out on March 19, 2014, on The CW. Since then, the network has released a total of seven installments so far.

The makers announced that the seventh installment of the series would be the last one even before its premiere. Despite that, after the conclusion of the seventh season, a lot of rumors started surfacing online that The 100 Season 8 is on the cards. But the officials debunked all those rumors and confirmed that the sci-fi drama has reached its conclusion, and they’re pretty satisfied with it.

Whereas at the 2019 summer press tour of the Television Critics Association, Mark revealed that Jason has several ideas regarding the spin-off, and they’re thinking about them.

The 100 Season 7 Episode 8 also worked as the backdoor pilot for the prequel series.

Therefore, fans don’t have to worry as they will soon get to see their favorite sci-fi drama in another form and world.

As previously mentioned, The 100 Season 8 is not happening. And instead of the eighth installment, the fans will get a spin-off series that is still in development.

Insatiable Season 3: Will It Ever Happen? All The Latest Details

Despite the first season of Insatiable suffered significant backlash, Netflix renewed it for the season run. But, it doesn’t seem the same case for Insatiable Season 3. Based on Jeff Chu’s article The Pageant King of Alabama, Insatiable follows a teenager Patty Bladell. She was body-shammed by her pals. But an accident forced her to a strict liquid diet resulted in her losing weight. Thus she returned to precede her rage on those who had bullied her. But can she continue it in season 3? Let’s see!

Insatiable Season 3: Is It Happening?

The second season hit Netflix in early October 2019. But, Netflix took more than usual time to decide the fate of the series. Fans were waiting for the renewal news just as they watched the second season. But Netflix confirmed in February 2020 that Insatiable wouldn’t return for the third run. And soon after this news, Alyssa Milano tweeted her grievance. She also said that they have many plots to explore yet.

Still, Milano’s tweet hinted that they could return on another network. Well, the show debuted as the CW’s original. And it got canceled just after its first season. But Netflix saved it once. So there’s a hope that it could return to wrap up its story. But, as per the reports, there’s a clause in Netflix’s contract that prevents canceled shows from airing on other platforms for a specific amount of time. As of now, it remains unclear if season 3 could hit another network or not.

Netflix’s Former Head Explained The Reason Behind Cancelation

Cindy Holland, Netflix’s Original Content Former Head revealed that the renewal of any show is based on a combination of certain things. She said that when they invest in a particular series, they first look at the fans’ response. Including how many will show up to stream the show.

If they didn’t earn many viewers, they reconsider whether or not to invest in that show. Cindy added that indeed critical acclaim is also crucial. But they focus on stretching their investment. So they can ensure that they are investing in something good.

Audience Signed A Petition

Soon after the first season of Insatiable aired, the viewers signed a petition with more than 230,000 signatures calling to cancel the show. Many argued that the show could cause eating disorders. Some even said that it is promoting body shaming. But, it soon got renewed for the second run. On which Debby Ryan said that societal nick needs to be addressed. So all they just want is to portray it in their show.

She added that they wanted to convey that you don’t have to feel bad about how you look. Soon Milano said that in the show, they aren’t shaming Patty. Instead, they are just depicting some social injustice issue. But despite their confession, the show didn’t cater to many positive views in its favor. Besides, several critics gave generally unfavorable reviews. As it gained only 2.68/10 on Rotten Tomatoes. Thus chances of its return for season 3 seem pretty slim.

Insatiable Season 3: What Will Happen If It Returns?

The show’s creator Lauren Gussis teased before the series canceled that the future run would explore Patty’s true feelings. Now she will try to find her morality and inner foundation. Well, she had been taking revenge on others who mocked her. But after killing Pageant, she confessed that nothing tastes as better as killing feels. Though she spoke some degree of truth, yet it’s the start of her recovery and re-evaluation of her ethics.

Star Trek: Discovery Season 4: Saru And T’Rina Budding Romance! Cast Shared Their Emotional And Incredible Moments

Star Trek: Discovery cast recently joined the 55-Year Mission Star Trek convention where the actors teased that Star Trek: Discovery Season 4 will be different than ever. While the other actors wrapped their shooting, some are still teasing to return in a much bigger role this time. Based on Gene Roddenberry’s Star Trek, it follows events that happened ten years before Star Trek: Original Series. So now, let’s see what season 4 is cooking for us.

Star Trek: Discovery Season 4: Has Production Concluded?

Despite several delays, the fourth season production finally began last November and has begun wrapping up in recent weeks. However, the work is yet to finish for some actors. For example, on the Wednesday panel, Tara Rosling was called up for further shooting in Toronto. But, during the panel, she explained that COVID protocols were the main reason for this extended filming schedule.

Tara added that the entire cast and crew were tested thrice a week. As a result, they had to stay on their levels, which further slowed down the production. Additionally, the false-positive tests resulted in a couple of days shut down, resulting in delayed filming. Meanwhile, Oded Fehr confessed that it becomes tough to film when the show has been continuously pushed back. Even they had to quarantine themselves for two weeks in Toronto.

Cast Shares Some Memorable Moments

Despite those strict protocols affecting the shooting schedule, Mary Wiseman said it was a crazy experience finally meeting them in person. However, Blu del Barrio revealed that they received many complaints the entire time. The crew stopped them from talking and laughing when their mask was off. But when they look back and watch the fourth season, it reflects how the team manages to lift the show in such a vulnerable time. David Benjamin Tomlinson praised that the cast was incredible and best.

Introduced A New Technology

Finally, a new achievement in Discovery season 4 as they are now using AR Wall instead of green screens. So the state-of-the-art AR Wall allows the cast to perform their scenes in virtual sets. On which, Patrick Kwok-Choon said that AR Wall is the future, and it’s fantastic. It’s a game-changing element that bolsters them to create desirable scenes. Although he didn’t share much about his scenes, yet it sounds like they had fun filming with AR Wall.

Star Trek: Discovery Season 4: Who Will Be In The Cast?

Tara Rosling, who played Vulcan President of Ni’Var T’Rina, will once again return to Discovery. Besides her, Kenneth Mitchell confirmed to return in a unique role. Anthony Repp as Paul Stamets and David Ajala as Cleveland “Book” Booker will also share the stage. Repp also said that there are scenes where the fans can see the pair together exploring certain things in the recent panel discussion. Doug Jones as Saru will also return.

In addition, Oded Fehr as Starfleet Commander-in-Chief Vance will also return and even confirmed things would become easier next season. Perhaps he could return for the next season as well. David Benjamin Tomlinson will once again return as Saurian Linus. On the other hand, Patrick Kwok-Choon will return as the regular bridge crew, Tactical Officer Rhys. Further the entire main characters will return.

Will Another AI Or Ship Return?

During the panel, Julianne Grossman, who voices over the USS Discovery, teased that she will appear as a new character in the fourth run. She said that her other character would be slightly different and hover a different voice. Although Grossman didn’t share more details about her new character, possibly it could be a new ship or AI. Well, in the last season finale, Starfleet discovered another source of dilithium which hints at the possibility of another ship that can travel faster than any warp-capable ship.

Will Explore T’Rina And Saru Romance

Tara was introduced in the third season where she had small screentime. But now she is returning to play a much bigger role in the fourth season. She said that T’Rina would continue to explore her journey as a president. But a lot is going on in her life apart from the presidentship. On the other hand, Doug Jones teased that fans can expect a budding romance between Saru and T’Rina.

Rick And Morty Season 6: In Early Stage Of Production! Release Date And More Updates

While Rick And Morty Season 5 is yet to wrap up airing its final episode, fans are already curious about Rick And Morty Season 6. Well, after a year-long hiatus, the series returned for its fifth run. Unfortunately, however, it seems fans have to wait for more to stream the sixth run while its fifth run finale is still put on a halt. Created by Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland, the sitcom revolves around the titular character’s misadventure.

Has It Renewed For The Next Run?

The good news for fans, Rick And Morty, will definitely return for the sixth run. Back in 2018, Adult Swim ordered 70 new episodes of Rick And Morty over an undefined number of seasons. While the fifth run consists of ten episodes, it confirmed that the sixth season is on the cards. Further, if each season will contain ten episodes, then Rick And Morty would have a total of 10 seasons.

Rick And Morty Season 6: Has Production Begun?

During October 2020’s PaleyFest NY, Dan Harmon said that he often gets confused between seasons 5 and 6 as they develop back-to-back seasons. He later confirmed that though they were late writing the sixth season. But he ensured they would soon begin working on the pilot episode. Well, both Dan and Justin Roiland have been involved in every stage of the process. Thus, things become a bit baffling here.

Meanwhile, in February 2021, the series writer Alex Rubens tweeted that they had begun writing the seventh season. That means the team has jotted down season 6. But most likely, the animation of the sixth season hasn’t started at that time. So, it remains a mystery whether Rick And Morty Season 6 is in its production stage or not.

Who Will Be In The Next Run?

No matter in which season we are now, the series just doesn’t work without Rick and Morty’s titular characters. So, without any doubt, Justin Roiland will indeed reprise the titular characters. Besides him, Chris Parnell as Jerry, Spencer Grammer as Summer, and Sarah Chalke as Beth Smith and Space Beth will also return. However, we can expect Kari Wahlgren to return once again as Morty’s love interest, Jessica.

Besides her, Dan Harmon, Keith David, Alison Brie, Darren Criss, and Christina Ricci might also return. Apart from the cast, in May 2020, Dan unveiled that Community alum Alex Rubens had joined the writing team of the sixth season. Soon, in February 2021, Alex announced his fellow writers. These include Heather Campbell, Albro Lundy IV, Grace Freud, Nick Rutherford, James Siciliano, Cody Ziglar, Alex Song-Xia, and Rob Schrab.

Rick And Morty Season 6: When Will It Release?

Now that the creators don’t have to wait for the renewal to create more episodes, it seems like Rick And Morty’s premiere could follow a regular pattern. However, the fifth season is yet to air its final episode. So the sixth season could air around the summer of 2022. But anything could happen as they have already begun working on the seventh season. So, stay tuned with us for more updates.

Daybreak Season 2: Will It Ever Return? All The Latest Details

Back in 2019, Netflix added fun back to the apocalypse to release a show titled Daybreak. Its first season had a great blend of comedy-drama and apocalyptic horror. As a result, the viewers really liked the show and wanted to see more of it in Daybreak Season 2. However, it didn’t happen as Netflix decided not to continue this show. So, is there any hope, and will the series ever return? Here is everything to know.

Daybreak is an American post-apocalyptic dark comedy web TV series. Brad Peyton and Aron Eli Coleite created this show for Netflix. It is an adaptation of Brian Ralph’s comic series of the same title. The inaugural season landed on Netflix in October 2019, consisting of a total of ten episodes. However, that wasn’t enough for the fans as they are still waiting for the next run of the show.

Daybreak Season 2: Renewal Status!

The first season premiered in October 2019, and then in December, Netflix announced they have decided not to continue the show. This news broke the heart of the many fans as they were anticipating the renewal of Daybreak Season 2. Although the streaming giant never revealed the reason why they canceled this show. But the experts speculated that it likely happened as the series failed to bring a good number of viewers.

The show has a promising story, and it could’ve become one of the top series. However, it didn’t get a chance. Even the creators didn’t like this decision of the streaming giant. Aaron Coleite posted a small message after the cancelation of Daybreak’s second season. In the caption, he wrote that he doesn’t know how to say this, but he prepared a small message for all the fans. Our readers can check out this tweet below. 

What’s The Show About?

The story of Daybreak revolves around a 17-year-old boy named Josh Wheeler. He is a Canadian high school outcast. Wheeler is looking for his missing British girlfriend, Sam Dean. He continues his search in the post-apocalyptic Glendale, California. Soon, a ragtag bunch of misfits joins him.

This group includes Josh’s high school bully Wesley and a ten years old Angelica. Wesley has changed, and he is a pacifist who is trying to become a samurai. Josh and his group then tried to survive in the post-apocalyptic world among cheerleaders who turned into Amazonian warriors, zombie-like creatures, and Baron Triumph.

Will Daybreak Season 2 Ever Happen? 

A lot of fans are in the hope that Netflix will eventually reverse its decision to renew fan-favorite post-apocalyptic comedy series. However, it has almost been two years since Netflix pulled out the plug. Now, it is very unlikely that the streaming giant will ever renew Daybreak Season 2. The one and the only way for this show to come back is to get picked up by any network. But at a time like this, it is also very unlikely. Therefore, the fans might never get to see the second season of this dark comedy.

Altered Carbon Season 3: Renewed? Reason Behind Cancelation & More Updates

It has been more than a year since the second season of Altered Carbon arrived on Netflix. The cyberpunk storyline and thrilling content of the show left the viewers on the edge of their seats, and they are still anticipating Altered Carbon Season 3. Although, something opposite of that happened. But some loyal fans of this show are still in the hope that they will get to see what’s next for Takeshi Kovacs. So, will it ever happen? Here is everything to know.

It has been more than a year since the second season of Altered Carbon arrived on Netflix. The show’s cyberpunk storyline and thrilling content left the viewers on the edge of their seats, and they are still anticipating Altered Carbon Season 3. Although, something opposite of that happened. But some loyal fans of this show are still in the hope that they will get to see what’s next for Takeshi Kovacs. So, will it ever happen? Here is everything to know.

ALTERED CARBON

Altered Carbon Season 3: Renewal Status!

Both installments of this cyberpunk drama received quite a positive response from the viewers. The arrival of Anthony Mackie in the second season even boosted the viewership of the sequel. However, despite this fact, Netflix dropped the show a few months after releasing its second season. They decided to end Takeshi Kovacs’ journey in the middle. The reports also stated that the coronavirus pandemic had nothing to do with the cancelation of Altered Carbon Season 3.

The streaming giant canceled several of its originals due to the pandemic only a few months before the cancelation of this one. Altered Carbon even has 85% ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. The series has a huge and loyal fan following, and they’re still hoping that they will see its third season. Despite that, Netflix is standing still on its decision.

Reasons Behind The Cancelation

The streaming giant has never officially confessed why they canceled Altered Carbon Season 3. But the main reason behind its cancelation was Netflix’s viewership against the cost renewal review process. The VP of Netflix’s original content, Cindy Holland, described this process on several occasions. The very first thing they look out for is whether they are getting enough viewers to support the show’s cost or not. Cindy explained that they only invest after analyzing how much viewership they’re going to get.

The critical acclamation is important as well, but if they don’t receive the expected viewership, then they see no point in continuing the series. Altered Carbon is full of special and visual effects, and hence it is pretty costly to produce. Therefore, Netflix didn’t see any point in investing more money and stretching when viewers wouldn’t support its cost. 

Altered Carbon Season 3: Release Date

Netflix is open to shift its canceled shows to other networks. But it is very unlikely for any other network to pick a series this expensive. Even so, if it ever happens, and they renew Altered Carbon Season 3, we will update this section with all the latest updates. So, keep an eye and stay tuned.
