The quirky crime dramedy “Panhandle” charmed audiences with its unlikely duo, Bell Prescott the agoraphobic armchair detective, and Cammie Lorde the reluctant traffic cop, tackling a murder mystery in their quirky Florida town.
Sometimes, you do need a bit of freshness to the shows you are watching. Panhandle is one of those shows that not only keep you hooked but also ensure that you are left craving for more as you finish watching it.
With its first season leaving many wanting more, the question on everyone’s mind is: will there be a Panhandle Season 2?
When is Panhandle Season 2 Releasing?
The show’s original platform, Spectrum Originals, underwent some restructuring and removed several shows, including “Panhandle,” as a cost-cutting measure. However, that doesn’t cut out the hope that the show will be canceled for good.
With the kind of positive response that the show garnered, especially with Luke Kirby in the lead role, it is safe to say that the creators and the network would be at fail if they decided to cancel the show so abruptly.
The majority of the cast that has been cast in the show in the first season have showcased their interest in returning if the showrunners decide to bring the series back in the future. So, all that aside, we are still hopeful about Panhandle returning sometime in the future. At this point, it is only a matter of when it’s going to happen.
What can we expect from Panhandle Season 2?
Before we delve into some of the theories and the speculations that have been littering the internet regarding the second season of Panhandle, one thing that’s for sure is that you need to watch Season 1. It is an absolute must.
To familiarize yourself with the characters and know how the creators ended the first season, it is pretty much mandatory that you catch up with every last episode in Season 1. That said, the following are a few speculations about the storyline of Season 2:
- The first season laid the groundwork for the quirky personalities of Boggsville’s residents. Season 2 could delve deeper into Bell’s agoraphobia, and Cammie’s past as a detective, and explore the lives of the other colorful characters.
- With the first season’s central case presumably closed, a fresh mystery would keep the unlikely duo on their toes. Perhaps a long-held Boggsville secret surfaces or a new arrival throws the town into disarray.
- Their unlikely partnership was a highlight. We could see them grow closer as they face new challenges, with Bell venturing out more and Cammie learning to trust his unique brand of sleuthing.
It would be interesting to see how many of these theories come to fruition and end up changing the course of the show for future seasons.
Who is returning to Panhandle Season 2?
If the show ends up being renewed for a sequel, Panhandle is expected to return with the cast from the first season, including:
- Luke Kirby
- Tiana Okoye
- Forrest Goodluck
- Wallace Smith
- Glenn Morshower
- Lesley Ann Warren
