Pine Gap Season 2: Everything We Know So Far

Netflix has been unstoppable in terms of its production library of foreign-language shows, documentaries, and movies, showcasing diverse cultures and languages. However, Netflix’s joint production with ABC TV (Australia) called ‘Pine Gap’ is a show that is not foreign language-based, but it’s a significant step forward in the international outreach agenda. Pine Gap is the first joint production between Netflix and ABC TV, and its setting is based on a U.S. satellite surveillance center in the local ground stations. It is an urban legend for both Americans and Australians and everything in the show, except for the setting, is based on fiction and not fact. David Rosenburg, a long-time employee at Pine Gap, was added to act as an owner to these aspects of the show, making it one of the best on the representation front.

However, the show received mixed reviews from every one, with some saying that it’s just ‘not good enough.’ Nevertheless, Netflix did not give up on the show and partnered with ABC and Screentime to distribute it to the US audience. According to Bob Campbell from Screentime, Netflix is “open to doing shows that look and sound different and are not necessarily made in Burbank or New York or Arizona. They are spreading their wings.” So, does it mean the show will be getting a renewal? Here is everything we know.

Will ‘Pine Gap’ Get A Second Installment?

At the moment, there is no official information or announcement regarding the renewal of the show. This is because the show is a co-production and is not solely owned by Netflix. The decision to renew the show will be made jointly by Netflix and ABC. Despite this, the cast and the show’s creators are both eager for the renewal to happen.

Despite not having an official announcement the show is listed as “Ended” on Wikipedia. This is definitely not a good sign.

When Will The Second Season Of ‘Pine Gap’ Be On Netflix?

We are simply going to assume that the show has been canceled. The show was not a big enough success and started its run with 580,000 viewers in Australia and eventually ended with 360,000. This initial figure wasn’t the worst but the fact that the show lost almost half of its viewers through the course of the season is some cause for concern. I wouldn’t be expecting to see Pine Gap season 2 anytime soon. However, it seems like Netflix has left the door open for a possible renewal.

Who Will Return For The Second Season Of ‘Pine Gap’?

The first season of ‘Pine Gap’ was packed with talented and famous actors. Parker Sawyers played the lead role of Gus Thompson and is well-known for his role in ‘Southside With You’, where he portrayed former president Barack Obama. Tess Hubrich played the character Jasmina and is recognized for her involvement in a number of AAA action flicks such as ‘The Wolverine’ (2013) and ‘Alien: Covenant’ (2017). Steve Touissant and Jacqueline McKenzie are also notable stars in the show. It is uncertain which direction the plot will take if the show gets renewed, as is common with mystery-based dramas like ‘Pine Gap’. It is difficult to predict who will return for the show. However, we can expect Parker and Tess, who play the lead roles, to return if the second season is renewed.
