Overview
- Peacock opted not to renew the acclaimed mystery series after two seasons despite strong overall performance on the platform.
- Rian Johnson, Natasha Lyonne, Ram Bergman and MRC began shopping the series to other outlets seeking a two-season commitment.
- Natasha Lyonne will step down as the on‑screen lead but remain an executive producer on any continuation.
- Multiple outlets report Peter Dinklage is lined up to play Charlie if the show is picked up elsewhere, reflecting a planned rotating‑lead model.
- Cost concerns, softer Season 2 viewership and the show’s outside studio status factored into Peacock’s decision, and future showrunner arrangements remain unresolved.
