It would appear that The CW has a soft spot for certain TV shows that might show promise if given a chance to really find its place. This is likely why “In the Dark” Season 2 was given the green light despite the fact that it isn’t really doing too well in terms of viewership. If the network is to continue justifying its continued existence, the series will need to do something drastic and going even darker could be the key.
It was recently confirmed that The CW had renewed a whole host of shows for news seasons this year, with “In the Dark” Season 2 only being one of them, Variety reported last month. Apart from the truly unique crime thriller, other shows that were greenlit include “All American,” “The 100,” and “Roswell, New Mexico.”
However, of all the shows that the network chose to bring back, “In the Dark” Season 2 was the most unlikely. The number of people who are watching each episode has been rather low, so far, even by The CW standards. It’s clear that not a lot of people are digging the whole “blind woman looking for the killer of a drug dealer” shtick.
There is every chance that the series could redeem itself before or during “In the Dark” Season 2 and it would have to do so if the folks behind it want a season 3. This is a series that could be something great with the right plot, pacing, and dialogue. So far, those three factors have not shone brightly with this particular series.
If the writing stays at the current level, “In the Dark” Season 2 could be the last. With this being the case, the showrunners might want to enter an even darker territory than it is in now.
