Found on NBC has been keeping people on the edge of their seats since it kicked off in 2023. Now that we're into Season 2, the question on everyone's lips is if it will be back for a third one. As of now, NBC hasn't given us the green light with an official statement about renewing the show.
But don't lose hope just yet! While we can't say with 100% certainty that there'll be another season, chances are looking good. If Found keeps up the suspense and the audience remains hooked, it's likely to come back for Season 3.
Procedural shows that have long-lasting stories, like Found with Gabi's tough choices, usually stick around for a while.
So, let's keep our fingers crossed and enjoy the ride!
What will determine Found’s renewal for Season 3?
A key point for Found's chances of being picked up for another round is keeping its viewers hooked through its second season. Screen Rant shared that the show had a stroke of luck back in the fall of 2023 when fewer programs were on air due to the industry strike. Now, with more TV shows to pick from, in its second season, Found has got some serious competition and needs to up its game to shine.
When season 1 wrapped up, Sir (Mark-Paul Harry Gosselaar) managed to escape, setting the stage for a narrative arc that goes beyond the usual weekly plotlines. It's a more engaging story that unfolds over time, not just your typical episode-to-episode fare.
Found isn't just about solving cases anymore; it's also about the deeper, more thrilling journey of Gabi, who has to deal with some serious personal baggage and tough choices. In Season 2, she finally tells her team a secret of hers, which opens the door for the show to grow into something more than a standard crime series.
NBC has a history of backing shows like Law & Order and Chicago P.D. that follow a similar pattern. If fans stay invested and the show maintains good ratings, it's quite likely the network will give it a chance for a third season. It's all about keeping the storylines tight and the audience coming back for more, especially since the network seems to have a taste for shows that keep a steady rhythm.
Which cast members if Found Season 3 becomes a reality?
Although no formal announcement has been made about a season 3 cast, we can predict that the show's main characters will likely be back. Shanola Hampton, who plays Gabi Mosely, is the soul of the series, and her journey seems to have more chapters ahead.
Mark-Paul Gosselaar's character, Sir, is a pivotal figure, especially after his escape and knack for stirring up drama. His manipulation and influence on the plot are sure to keep him as a central character if the show gets a third season.
Other mainstays we might see again include:
- Kelli Williams as Margaret Reed
- Brett Dalton as Detective Mark Trent,
- Gabrielle Walsh as Lacey Quinn
- Arlen Escarpeta as Zeke Wallace
- Karan Oberoi as Dhan Rana
The show's recurring cases and character development draw viewers in. If we get lucky with a Season 3, it would likely explore the aftermath of Gabi's choice to bring her team into her secret, the consequences of Sir's escape, and whether Jamie's homecoming is the end of Margaret's story or just another twist.
In the meantime, watch Found on NBC and catch up on Peacock.
