By the time The Night Agent Season 2 had ended, Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) had saved the world, but it had come at a price. The sophomore season had not tied up all loose ends, there were unanswered questions and the show returning for another season provides an opportunity for answers. Production on Season 3 of The Night Agent began in late 2024 and carried on into much of 2025, and now it has been confirmed that production has finally wrapped. Season 1, which premiered in 2023, followed a low-level FBI Agent who finds himself at the center of a dangerous conspiracy while manning the phones during a night shift. Season 2 debuted earlier this year, proving to be a hit with critics with a score of 86% on Rotten Tomatoes. Now, fans can look forward to the release of The Night Agent Season 3.

Every streamer is now looking for the next Reacher, and Netflix has come damn close with their smash-hit action thriller series, The Night Agent. The first season of the series, which follows a low-level FBI Agent who finds himself at the center of a dangerous conspiracy while manning the phones during a night shift, landed back in 2023, with the second season debuting earlier this year. Now, fans have gotten the update they’ve been waiting for regarding the release of The Night Agent Season 3.

Based on the novel by Matthew Quirk, The Night Agent centers on a lowly FBI Agent who works in the basement of the White House, manning a phone that never rings -- until the night that it does, propelling him into a fast-moving and dangerous conspiracy that ultimately leads all the way to the Oval Office. The first season was met with a positive response from both critics and audiences alike,...

Decades after A Different World ended, the Cosby Show spinoff is gearing up for a sequel, and it finally has a cast. The original A Different World show ran from 1987 to 1993 and followed Lisa Bonet's Denise Huxtable and Marisa Tomei's Maggie Lauten as they attended an Hbcu (Historically Black College or University). After the second season, however, Bonet and Tomei both left the show due to Bonet's pregnancy. Tragically, several A Different World cast members have died since the show's conclusion, including Lou Myers (Vernon Gaines), Diahann Carroll (Marion Gilbert), and Rosalind Cash (Dean Hughes).

According to a report by Variety, Netflix is already planning an updated cast for its sequel show. While there is no word about what will happen to the late actors' characters, the pilot has cast six series regulars already. Chibuikem Uche will be playing Kojo, Maleah Joi Moon will be Deborah, Cornell Young will be Shaquille,...

After the news that Netflix has ordered a pilot for the upcoming spin-off to the 1987 seriesA Different World, six series regulars have been added to the cast, including someone to play Dwayne and Whitley's daughter, according to Deadline. Chibuikem Uche, Maleah Joi Moon, Cornell Young, Jordan Aaron Hall, Alijah Kai Higgins, and Kennedi McClure are all now a part of the call sheet. According to Deadline, the series will follow Whitley Gilbert-Wayne's (Jasmine Guy) and Dwayne Wayne's (Kadeem Hardison) youngest daughter, Deborah, during her time at an Hbcu. It's not been confirmed if the series will be returning to the fictional Hillman College (though with Whitley's penchant for legacy it wouldn't be surprising for the show to go in that direction). Moon has been cast as Deborah, giving fans their first look at Dwayne and Whitley's children. According to Deadline, Netflix has declined to comment on the casting.

Netflix declined to comment.

As Deadline reported previously, the streamer will shoot a pilot for A Different World, a sequel to the 1987 sitcom, which will chronicle Dwayne and Whitley’s daughter’s time at an Hbcu. The project had been in development at the streamer since last year, and the commissioning of the pilot is part of that process.

The pilot is a one-off and not part of a strategy shift, sources said. The pilot model in general is more often employed in comedy as a proof of concept for tone, chemistry among the ensemble cast, comedic timing and other key ingredients of a successful series.

In the last thirteen months, we’ve seen two different time travel slashers, Totally Killer and Time Cut, get streaming service releases.

Simon's death was intentional, involving a deadly prank and a lack of EpiPens. The real killer framed others, exposing dark secrets and leading to a deadly confrontation. Canceled after season 2, unresolved mysteries and questions leave fans wanting more.

Peacock's One of Us is Lying is a riveting teen mystery based on Karen M. McManus' 2017 novel of the same name. This now-canceled series joins a list of teen shows with edgy premises but is sadly marked by a season 2 cliffhanger that will likely never be resolved. The series follows a Breakfast Club-esque group of five teens who walk into detention, but the gossiper Simon Kelleher (Mark McKenna) doesn't make it out alive.

Simon meets a quick and untimely demise during the first episode, which begs the question of how someone dies in detention. While death from boredom can be easily ruled out, in the show, Simon's death is much more complicated.

It seems One of Us Is Lying has told its last untruth, while Vampire Academy has been staked in the heart. Peacock has canceled the two YA series, ending One Of Us Is Lying after its second season and Vampire Academy after its first. According to Deadline, which reported the news, Peacock brass was happy with the quality of both series but couldn’t justify renewing the shows, given the two shows’ viewership stats. Matt Grace/Peacock Based on the novel of the same name by Karen M. McManus, One of Us Is Lying “is the story of what happens when five high schoolers walk into detention and only four make it out alive,” as Peacock explained. “Everyone is a suspect, and everyone has something to hide.” The series — developed for TV by Erica Saleh — starred Annalisa Cochrane, Chibuikem Uche, Marianly Tejada, Cooper van Grootel, Mark McKenna, Melissa Collazo, Jessica McLeod,...

Peacock is reworking its slate, and it's bad news for fans of YA dramas Vampire Academy and One of Us Is Lying.

Deadline reported Friday night that both series had been canceled after their most recent runs on the streaming service.

Vampire Academy came from Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries) and was expected to be a big hit for the service, but Deadline notes that the numbers didn't justify a second season.

"St. Vladmir's Academy isn't just any boarding school — it's a hidden place where vampire royals are educated and half-human teens train to protect them from the savage 'Strigoi' vampires who would like to see them destroyed," reads the logline for the series.

Vampire Academy stars Daniela Nieves (Snowfall) as Royal Moroi vampire Lissa Dragomir, Sisi Stringer (Mortal Kombat) as Rose's Dhampir Guardian Rose Hathaway, and Kieron Moore (Sex Education) Dhampir Guardian Dimitri Belikov.

The cast also includes Andre Dae Kim...

Say goodbye to “One of Us Is Lying” and “Vampire Academy.” On Friday, Peacock canceled both shows, the latest in a wave of cancelations as studios, streamers and networks cut costs heading into 2023.

“One of Us Is Lying,” the very first pilot Peacock ordered to series, debuted in 2021 and was renewed for a second season, which premiered last fall. “Vampire Academy” has been staked through the heart after just one season.

Warning: Spoilers for One Of Us Is Lying season 2After a shocking finale, the showrunner of One Of Us Is Lying previews season 3. Based on the 2017 novel of the same name by Karen M. McManus, One Of Us Is Lying premiered on Peacock last October. The series begins with five teens — Addy (Annalisa Cochrane), Cooper (Chibuikem Uche), Bronwyn (Marianly Tejada), Nate (Cooper van Grootel), and Simon (Mark McKenna) — who enter detention. That last character, Simon, dies under mysterious circumstances, and an investigation ensues. The ordeal also forces the remaining four to close ranks, pulling together and later growing apart once secrets are revealed.

One Of Us Is Lying season 2 picks up after the shocking murder of Jake (Barrett Carnahan) and the four main characters, known as The Murder Club, getting blackmailed as a result. The new installment of the Peacock series is differentiated in a few ways, aiming for more...

One of Us Is Lying Season 2 is a significant step up from its predecessor.

Armed with a compelling mystery, excellent characters, and just enough darkness, it is one of the year's best shows.

TV Fanatic got the chance to chat with showrunner Erica Saleh and cast members Annalisa Cochrane (Addy), Chibuikem Uche (Cooper), Marianly Tejada (Bronwyn), Cooper Van Grootel (Nate), and Jessica McLeod (Janae).

Saleh teases that One of Us Is Lying Season 2 picks up in the immediate aftermath of the message from Simon Says.

The teenagers vowing to go their separate ways after Jake's (Barrett Carnahan) death is now impossible because they've been forced back together to find out who is texting them.

The showrunner cautions that they also need to find out how much this person knows, but through all of that, the teenagers have to asses just how much they trust each other.

Erica couldn't give...

Telling another mystery after the original is dead and buried is tough.

Many mystery series struggle to follow up that first big hook, but One of Us Is Lying Season 2 manages to elevate the mystery and the stakes to leave viewers with a sense of dread.

TV Fanatic got the chance to screen the entire season ahead of launch, and you'll be glad to know that the series takes things in a drastically different direction.

That's not to say there were any significant flaws with the first season. It's just that taking things in a different direction as opposed to reinventing what made the first season successful is a sign that the creatives are confident in their storytelling.

We pick back up with Addy (Annalisa Cochrane), Cooper (Chibuikem Uche), Bronwyn (Marianly Tejada), Nate (Cooper van Grootel), and Janae (Jessica McLeod) in the immediate aftermath of that text.

Someone knows that Jake is dead,...

The identity of snarky gossiper Simon Kelleher’s killer in season one was identified at the conclusion of Peacock’s One of Us is Lying season one. And, mini-spoiler alert, the gang took care of that problem (Rip Jake) but wound up creating a new one. Which, of course, leads us to season two.

The two-minute season two trailer reveals the Murder Club members will be tormented by “Simon Says” and forced into doing his/her bidding or else their involvement in Jake’s “disappearance” will be exposed. The trailer suggests the club should keep their friends close, but their secrets even closer.

Season two is set to premiere on October 20, 2022, however, New York Comic Con attendees were treated to a preview of the first episode along with a Q&a with the show’s stars.

We're not lying about this TV news. Peacock's One of Us Is Lying is back for a second season on Oct. 20.

"It's over," says Nate Macauley (Cooper van Grootel) in the season two trailer as the group seemingly deposes Jake's body in the water. But Addy Prentiss (Annalisa Cochrane) thinks otherwise, telling him, "I think it's just getting started."
