Chad Powers Finale Lands as Hulu Weighs Renewal After Six-Episode Debut

Creators signal they are ready to make more episodes pending a performance-based renewal decision.

Overview

  • Season 1 concluded today with its sixth episode and a cliffhanger ending, leaving the show's future unresolved.
  • Hulu has not announced a Season 2, and any pickup is expected to hinge on viewership and engagement metrics.
  • Co-creators Michael Waldron and Glen Powell say they have a plan for continuing the story and express enthusiasm to return if greenlit.
  • The compact, six-episode order was by design, with executives and the showrunner citing event-style pacing and scheduling considerations.
  • Reporting notes strong early streaming traction, including reaching No. 1 on Hulu and Disney+, even as critics were mixed and audience scores were higher.
