‘Found' Canceled By NBC After 2 Seasons
EXCLUSIVE: Found will not be getting a third season at NBC. The series, starring Shanola Hampton, may be shopped by its lead studio Warner Bros. Television. The news comes ahead of the Season 2 finale, which has been teased as a showdown of sorts between Gabi (Hampton) and Sir's sister Lena (Danielle Savre). The episode, which will now serve as a series finale, airs on May 15. More from Deadline 'Suits LA' Canceled By NBC After One Season 'The Irrational' Canceled By NBC After 2 Seasons 'Lopez Vs. Lopez' Canceled After 3 Seasons At NBC Found was canceled today alongside fellow NBC sophomore drama The Irrational. Coming from different studios, Found from Warner Bros. TV and The Irrational from Universal Television, the two series had similar runs. Held as strike contingency, both shows launched in fall 2023 amid a dearth of scripted originals on the broadcast networks. Taking advantage of the lesser competition and potent lead-ins, The Voice (Monday) for The Irrational and The Voice (Tuesday) for Found, the dramas started off well on NBC and Peacock. Found became NBC's top launch on the streamer until then, with its premiere episodes drawing 10.5M viewers across platforms in the first week. By late November, both dramas had been renewed for a second season. On a stacked 2024-25 broadcast schedule, Found – like The Irrational – has been registering steep year-to-year ratings declines, which factored in the cancellation decision. Found also faced a new story paradigm in Season 2 as one of the key elements of its premise changed with Sir (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) escaping from Gabi's (Hampton) basement in the Season 1 finale. Ultimately, Found became a casualty of NBC's cutback on entertainment programming to accomodate the 180 primetime hours of basketball next season under NBCUniversal's $2.5B a year deal with the NBA, which also claimed dramas The Irrational, Suits LA and comedies Night Court and Lopez vs Lopez — all canceled today. Found follows public relations specialist Gabi Mosely (Hampton), who was once herself one of the more than 300,000 missing people of color in the U.S., and her crisis management team who now make sure there is always someone looking out for the forgotten missing people. Gosselaar, Kelli Williams, Brett Dalton, Gabrielle Walsh, Arlen Escarpeta and Karan Oberoi also starred. The series came from creator/showrunner Nkechi Okoro Carroll, who exec produced alongside Sonay Hoffman, Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Leigh London Redman and Lindsay Dunn. Berlanti Productions and Rock My Soul Productions produced in association with Warner Bros. Television and Universal Television.

Why cancelling Suits LA after one season is the best announcement in American TV history
American show Suits LA always faced the near-impossible legal burden of precedent — namely, Suits (the original), starring Gabriel Macht, Patrick J. Adams, and Meghan Markle. And unfortunately, this spinoff fails to meet the standard of proof required to justify its own existence. In fact, if television had a Supreme Court, Suits LA would be summarily dismissed for lack of merit, lack of charm, and lack of literally anything compelling. Honestly, the only thing more shocking than its cancellation after one season would've been if someone renewed it voluntarily. Ted Black (Stephen Amell), a former federal prosecutor with a traumatic past and some truly uninspired flashbacks to 2010, now runs a boutique entertainment law firm in LA with his friend Stuart Lane. There's a merger pending with a rival firm led by his ex (of course), and clients (many of them real-life actors) roll in with problems that sound more interesting than they are. There's office politics, unresolved tension, and a fair amount of posturing — none of which feels remotely compelling. Well, everyone looks fantastic. The wardrobe department deserves an Emmy for managing to make Stephen's jawline look even sharper. Lex Scott Davis as Erica Rollins brings a spark, managing to occasionally inject life into otherwise limp scenes. Her clashes with Rick (Bryan Greenberg) and moments with junior associate Alice Lee provide rare glimmers of watchability. There are also some attempts at witty repartee — the kind you'd expect in a Suits show — but they're more like dry coughs than zingers. Let's start with the obvious: it's not funny, smart, or fast-paced — the things that defined the original. The flashbacks to Ted's New York days feel like they were edited on Windows Movie Maker, and the mystery around his move is about as suspenseful as a parking ticket. Guest star cameos (including the late John Amos and Brian Baumgartner) feel like distractions from a script that knows it's running on empty. And worst of all? The banter. Suits ran on musical, sharp-tongued exchanges. Suits LA tries — oh, it tries — but every quip lands like a thud. Suits LA tries to repackage the original's magic in West Coast packaging but ends up delivering courtroom drama without the drama, cleverness without the clever, and charisma without, well, anything resembling charisma. The result is a show that's technically about lawyers, but mostly just about very good-looking people in very good-looking suits having very uninspired conversations. It's a spin-off that forgot to bring the spin — or the fun.
