Canceled ‘Halo’ Series Hits Netflix, Debuts at No. 4 in U.S.

The former Paramount+ adaptation is drawing fresh viewing on Netflix with no third season announced.

Overview

  • Both seasons began streaming on Netflix on October 2 and the show entered Netflix’s U.S. most‑popular TV list at No. 4, a ranking based on views.
  • The series originally ran from 2022 to 2024 on Paramount+ and was canceled in July 2024 after two seasons.
  • Producers reportedly shopped the show for a possible third season after cancellation, but there has been no pickup or official revival.
  • The run totals 17 episodes, with Pablo Schreiber, Natascha McElhone, and Jen Taylor leading the cast and Steven Spielberg’s Amblin among executive producers.
  • Critical and fan response was largely lukewarm, and choices like Master Chief appearing without his helmet and a sex scene drew backlash, with Schreiber later calling the latter a mistake.
