I want it you want it, we all want it but as it stands there is no news that confirms Ballard Season 2 .. The Bosch: LegacY Spinoff has had an astonishing success on Prime Video during the first release week and scored the evasive 100% critics at Rotten Tomatoes. But these days it does not guarantee a future.
Ballard, LAPD detective Renée Ballard (Maggie Q) follows when she oversees a cold case in a new department is still the most streamed new TV show on the platform at the time of writing, with positive critical reviews flying in thick and fast. Even to someone who knows very little about how the industry works, there is clearly more than enough proof to order new episodes.
But according to Maggie Q there is as much chance that we could never see Ballard Again if another season is not green on. The biggest shame if the new series ends while it is ahead? We never see the “very exciting” season 2 -arch that is teased by Q itself.
Ballard season 2 is not guaranteed to be renewed by prime video but a ‘very exciting’ bow would make a cancellation devastating
Look at
Spoilers to Ballard Season 1 final in front.
“I have no sense,” Q told The Hollywood Reporter about a potential Ballard Season 2. ”This industry is not what it was before. It’s hardly recognizable to me and shows are so useful. They can throw a show of two seconds and it doesn’t make a lot of difference that whole worlds and livelihoods are at stake. Studios always have opportunities. But we have a writer’s room and they have written away.
“The arch for the second season is very exciting,” she confirms. “But I’ve had the Writers Room employed before and then was canceled. So everyone is like, ‘Maggie, of course!’ I’m like ‘no, no, no.’ Of course, there is not ‘.
Let’s summarize what we know. Season 1 escaped with the unexpected reveal that Councilor Jake Pearlman’s (Noah Bean) own father, Gary Pearlman (Kevin Dunn) murdered his own daughter over an alleged confrontation of his marital affair. Robert Olivas (Ricardo Chavira) was also exposed to being a dirty policeman next to being a generally horrible person (remember the previous assault charges), but when he is also killed, Ballard is arrested for it.
We haven’t seen how Olivas died, but we saw Ballard drawing her gun on him in the last moments of their confrontation. If Season 2 never goes off the ground, Ballard is essentially stuck in prison, possibly no good reason, for the rest of her fictional life. Not only this but Ballard Have already defied the typical criminal drama stereotype by mixing the personal and professional in a whole new way, so it would be an extra shame to lose something that brings us something new.
As for me, Prime Video owes it to the franchise, fans and that undoubtedly the strongest Bosch Spinoff so far to give some answers over. Meanwhile, you can check everything new on Prime video in July 2025 to get you out of a post-Ballard Falling.
