Has Dept. Q been renewed for Season 2? Here's what we know:
Renewed or Cancelled? Dept. Q is the latest crime drama on Netflix, created by Scott Frank, the brilliant mind behind The Queen's Gambit. With great characters and plotting, this one is not to be missed. Having watched the first season in its entirety, you may be wondering if this one has been renewed or cancelled. Well, wonder no more! What is Dept. Q about? Dept. Q is set in Edinburgh, follows Detective Chief Inspector Carl Morck, a brilliant but emotionally scarred officer recovering from a traumatic ambush that left his partner paralyzed and another officer dead. Relegated to a newly formed cold case unit in the police department's basement, Morck assembles a team of misfits to take on an old case involving the mysterious disappearance of prosecutor Merritt Lingard from a ferry four years prior. As the team delves deeper, they uncover a chilling conspiracy and psychological trauma that test their limits. We have extended coverage of Dept. Q on the site, including recaps of every episode HERE! Has Forget You Not been renewed for Season 2? At the time of writing, Dept. Q has not been renewed for season 2. Generally Netflix would gauge numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate. With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly. Other times, it can take months before a decision over a show's future is made. So far, Dept. Q has had a very good reaction online from critics and audiences alike. Given the way this show is set up, and the ending we receive, we're predicting that this will be renewed for a second season. The series has lots of potential, and it's also adapted from Jussi Adler-Olsen's Danish novels too so there's plenty of sourxe material to adapt. There's also lots of loose ends still to be tied up and plenty of potential for further cold cases to be brought up. We also know completion rate is a massive metric for these streamers and this feels like one of those shows that people will dive into and become hooked once they've watched a few episodes. However, we could be completely wrong too, so take our prediction with a pinch of salt! What we know about season 2 so far: Barely anything is known about Dept. Q season 2 at this point given Netflix haven't officially renewed or cancelled this one. Given the first season's conclusion, it does seem very likely to get the nod for another season. We'd likely get another 9 episode season if this one is renewed, along with a return of familiar cast and crew too. The story's tone and style will likely remain very similar to what we've been graced with in season 1, and a return of cast and crew along with Carl's quest for who the shooters were at Leith Park too. We will update this page when more information becomes available, so be sure to check this page out in the near future. Would you like to see Dept. Q return for a second season?
