Your Honor
Showtime
Your Honor continues to have an incredibly impressive, completely unexpected run on Netflix, where it’s been inside Netflix’s Top 10 list since it arrived on the service on May 31, a month and a half ago. No other show, not even Bridgerton I don’t think, has lasted longer on that list during that time.
The Showtime original only ran two seasons and went on the service alongside a much more well-known show, Dexter. But it has put up an incredibly dominant performance and now, that may in fact lead to a season 3, according to Showtime/CBS.
In a Deadline interview with CBS Studios head David Stapf, the topic of Your Honor and its stunning performance came up in regard to bringing the show back for a potential season 3:
“We love the show, and we’re hoping that it can continue,” said Stapf. “but it’s a little too soon to know or to tell. We would like there to be a Season 3, but we’re ways away.”
That likely revolves around both a concept for Your Honor season 3 and the availability of its big-name star, Bryan Cranston, his largest role since Breaking Bad. Here’s the synopsis of the show:
Forbes VettedFor You
“Michael Desiato is a prominent and respected New Orleans judge. When his teenage son Adam kills another teenager in an accidental hit-and-run collision, Michael encourages his son to turn himself in, but quickly changes his mind when he discovers the boy his son killed was the son of a mob kingpin.”
The show (spoilers) ends with Cranston’s character in prison, which is why when asked about season 3, he remains mixed:
“My comment was I’m not sure that there could be or there is,” Cranston said. “There is some discussion. Showtime has indicated there is interest and we’re very proud to know that every episode in Season 2 increased in the audience from the previous week. If it happens, fantastic but it’d have to be some great reason to keep expanding in this world and to find out where the allegiances are.”
This almost…has to happen with these sorts of viewership numbers? With or without Cranston. Again, I do not quite understand why this show of all shows has hit so hard on Netflix. It has not-great critic scores and somewhat middling audience scores but…people are watching. And people watch mixed-review stuff all the time, I suppose.
I do not see how season 3 of Your Honor doesn’t happen, but with nothing already in the works, it would likely be years away.
