Manifesters have been patiently waiting on renewal news from NBC after an explosive and jaw-dropping season 2 finale

The fate of Manifest hangs in the air as NBC has not confirmed whether a third season is in the cards.

While many argue that the network should’ve made a decision by now, the impending coronavirus pandemic has shuffled many things around for the networks. 

With a halt in production on most shows, many show’s had to cut their seasons short. Other shows haven’t even begun filming, which could be beneficial for shows like Manifest and convince the network to give the third season the greenlight. 

Fans are remaining hopeful as show creator Jeff Rake talked extensively with EW and TV Line about his plans for season 3 of Manifest. There’s a lot more mythology, a lot surrounding the passengers and how they’re perceived, the three shadow figures turned meth heads are set to return, and Saanvi wrestles with her guilt. 

Those are all story avenues fans also want to explore. Rake also revealed he has the show mapped out for a six-season run! 

NBC’s track-record isn’t as terrible as some other networks when it comes to pulling the plug on shows. The first season of Manifest was also held in limbo for a bit before scoring a renewal a little under two months after the finale. 

Renewed or Canceled 2020: Which Shows Will Be Returning and Which Shows Are Saying Goodbye?

If we consider that timeline, NBC should have a decision around June, which means that we still have some waiting time. 

Jack Messina, who plays Cal, also said the Upfronts in May might give fans some insight into a potential third season. 

NBC canceled the live event, and will instead televise and stream the presentation on May 11 to “to ensure the safety of all participants while also reflecting the increasingly direct relationship between NBCUniversal, its fans and its partners,” NBCU said. “This will now allow all audiences to tune in for a sneak peek at the future of NBCUniversal’s programming.”

 
 
So, there’s a huge likelihood we’ll find out the fate of season 3 of Manifest come March 11 at the NBC Upfronts. 
 
The ratings play larger into whether or not a show gets renewed. The second season dropped significantly in ratings as its very much a serialized drama, however, Manifest remains one of the top 10 most-watch scripted dramas. Newsweek reports its 7th on the list next to Chicago Med, Chicago Fire, Chicago PD, This Is Us, New Amsterdam, and The Blacklist.
 
The series also has a dedicated fanbase that has been pushing #RenewManifest on social media. 
 
Will it convince NBC? We hope so!

When Does ‘Manifest’ Season 4 Part 2 Release on Netflix?

Published

Are you ready for Flight 828 to make its final descent?

On April 7, Netflix revealed the release date for the second half of the plane drama, along with a new teaser trailer to hold fans over. 

Manifest Season 4 Part 2—all 10 episodes—will land on the streamer on Friday, June 2, 2023. For those that are keeping score, it’s a year ahead of the June 2, 2024 Death Date (so does this mean they find a way to beat it?!). 

Netflix typically releases new episodes at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time, which means it will drop at 3:00 am Eastern and 2:00 am CT. 

And according to the teaser trailer, things are just as ominous as we expected when we saw the final shot of Season 4 Part 1 of Angelina bringing forth destruction via volcanic fissures.  

“The world is ending and we know when,” Josh Dallas’ Ben Stone remarks in the trailer as everyone emphasizes June 2 numerous times. 

Here’s the full synopsis for the forthcoming final set of episodes. 

“A mysterious accident delivers ominous warnings on a biblical scale that will further jeopardize the livelihood of all the passengers,” the synopsis reads. “As Michaela [Melissa Roxburgh] grieves the loss of her beloved husband Zeke [Matt Long], she must team up with her old flame Jared [J.R. Ramirez] to find new methods to investigate Callings.”

Watch the teaser below:
 

The end may be near, but there’s still plenty of story left to tell—and we hope that they do right by the ending, giving a satisfactory conclusion to longtime fans who have rallied behind the series from day 1 when it was still on NBC.
