Secrets And Lies Season 3 Updates Will The ABC Series Return

ABC’s crime drama Secrets And Lies ran for two seasons and ended on a cliffhanger, but will the show ever get a season 3? Secrets And Lies is based on the Australian TV show of the same name and was adapted for American audiences by Magnum P.I. reboot executive producer Barbie Kligman. The series starred Juliette Lewis as a North Carolina police detective named Andrea Cornell and took a cue from fellow crime anthology True Detective by focusing on a different case each season.

The first season of Secrets And Lies premiered in 2015 and co-starred Ryan Phillippe as suburban family man Ben Crawford who becomes the prime suspect in the murder of his neighbors’ five-year-old son. In season 2, the plot focused on newlywed Eric Warner, played by Jacob’s Ladder star Michael Ealy, who is set to take over his father’s business but finds himself the main suspect in his wife’s murder.

Season 2 ended with Andrea solving the case and going home to find her house broken into before being shot at by a mystery individual. That finale suggested the makers of the show were counting on it being renewed for a third season so the cliffhanger could play out properly.

Secrets And Lies Was Cancelled In 2017

Secrets And Lies Season 3 Updates Will The ABC Series Return

ABC announced in May 2017 they had canceled Secrets And Lies alongside several other shows, including fellow anthology series American Crime and comedy Last Man Standing. Whereas Last Man Standing was resurrected by Fox, it seems unlikely Secrets And Lies will have similar luck. Though the show had decent ratings during its first season viewership dropped dramatically in season 2. Some think the reason ratings plummeted was due to scheduling issues. The first season ran from March through May and Secrets And Lies was quickly renewed for a second season after the final episode aired.

It would’ve made sense to air season 2 at the same time of year but newly appointed ABC president Channing Dungey decided to hold it back until late September 2016 in hopes of it finding a bigger audience. Unfortunately, that plan backfired and the long delay between seasons meant the show lost its audience and ratings fizzled out.

Secrets And Lies Season 3 Is Unlikely To Happen

As for whether Secrets And Lies season 3 could ever happen in the future – well, its poor season 2 ratings don’t exactly make reviving the show an attractive prospect but stranger things have happened. Plenty of TV shows have been canceled then resurrected like Family Guy or Timeless. A third season of Secrets And Lies isn’t totally out of the realms of possibility but since there’s no recent news about reviving it, the show’s fans probably shouldn’t hold their breath.
