Designated Survivor may survive after all. The axed ABC political thriller is actively being shopped to other outlets for a Season 3 revival, Deadine reports:
eOne sources have told Deadline that “it’s not over” and that it’s starting to look at whether there is another home for the thriller. “We’re right at the beginning but there’s more to play on that one,” said the exec. If the producer and distributor did find a deal, it would be the latest high-profile series, following Brooklyn Nine-Nine, this season to find a new home after cancellation.
In fact, the company, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange, has just put out a regulatory statement, confirming that it is “in active discussions with other parties for further series of the show”.
Would you watch Designated Survivor Season 3 on another network or platform? Which networks or platforms would you most want Designated Survivor to end up? Should the show remain cancelled?
Stay tuned as we observe the graveyard for signs of new life for Designated Survivor…
Carole says
So sorry to hear that this show was cancelled. Loved it!!!!
Vickie says
I love this show and I would absolutely watch Designated Survivor if it was on another network. It’s not the network that’s important to me… it’s the series itself! I don’t have Hulu, Netflix, or Amazon Prime so if it ended up on one of those, I’d be out of luck.
Bernadette Howard says
Me too.
Angie Wilt says
Me three! Why is it that when a great show is doing well some person sitting in an ivory tower makes the decision to cancel? Not getting enough money in their pocket via kickbacks???
Redly says
We certainly hope Designated Survivor is picked up elsewhere. Just hope I have the Channel. Good show.
ReneCat says
Will follow Designated Survivor to another network absolutely! Shouldn’t be TOO hard especially since I plan to delete ABC from the channel grid on my tv.
Sue Cugini says
This was a great show. I hope it ends up on Netflix or a cable channel that has repeated showings. On Netflix I could watch it anytime and wouldn’t have to worry about conflicts with other shows. I just don’t want to see DS bite the dust — it’s too good and it is by no means ready for an early death.
joe says
I don’t care who picks it up I will watch the show.
Erika says
I really hope Designated Survivor gets picked up by another network. I really love this show and will watch it on any network that it gets picked up on :), as long as I have access to it!! So Please Please Please someone pick it up, and Please be a Channel that I already have.. I love this TV Show..
MGray says
I watch this show each week. At over 60 years old middle class American it is good to watch a interesting, informative and fun show. I would certainly follow it to another network.
DJ says
I will miss Designated survivor bigtime.
