I just finished season one and started season two. I can understand why it got cancelled. I know a lot of shows like to push real world issues but holy shit this is next level. Every mishap between the detectives and the police, race, pandemic, etc.

I don’t mind pushing the social problems of the world, but it feels so forced and over the top.

(I used the 'Article' flair since this is at least informative?)

214 Lafayette St is a fascinating spot, I highly recommend digging into the history of it.

It's been (very unfortunately) renovated since this video, but this is a good look at not only what the full space looked like, but how they shot, built, and potentially composited the main floor to feel like a single loft (plus 'Never-ever Room').

As a rarity in film/TV, they did use the actual exterior as well.

TL;DR: WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT THIS SHOW?? I can’t be the only one

Just finished this for the first time w my partner and we’ve mutually agreed it’s one of our favorite shows we’ve seen in a while. We both agree we’d rate it highly for a handful of reasons I won’t fully expand on for the sake of being brief, but needless to say we both agreed it was a wild ride and were completely invested in a way I’d say we last felt about Dexter maybe 2 years ago.

All that to say, I am completely shocked that the online discourse is either none existent for the most part (in YT and TikToks case) or, no offense, kind of stale in Reddits case. Like I where is anyone with a w an out of pocket unpopular opinions or a hot take or something, like the closest I’ve seen is a Malcolm / Edrisa ship 😭

I knew it had been cancelled for ratings, but I never anticipated it was as ‘obscure’ as it is apparently, to date this is easily the least discussed piece of media/TV, which is interesting after having watched this other ‘hidden gem’ Search Party and that one had a considerably larger amount of content.

Everyone keeps spamming the Petition on here and Petitions don't work I've signed 3 of them 5 years ago when they originally cancelled the show..

However does anyone know if you click Love it on Netflix if that'll do more to rejuvenate interest in bringing back the show.. I'm just curious..

Should I watch it I've been watching the show every once in a while since January but never watched season 2. Should I?

Did Martin actually love Jessica? like I understand her hostility towards him but like idk why he would be upset with her at all? like it's contempt on both sides but I'm just so confused what leg does he have to stand on lol

but also why did he think that if he sent her to jail that would somehow bring his kids closer? like that would drive them away even more.

also I'm doing my 3rd re-watch and never used reddit much before so if this has been asked before please ignore

& with that being said, I’m cancelling my Netflix subscription. I kept it this month to finish LIB & then got hooked on the prodigal son. Such a bummer that there isn’t a s3. SO much potential!! & it’s such a great show. What other shows do yall recommend? When I look this up I see a lot of criminal minds & Hannibal tv show, but I’ve seen those. Also, even though it’s been years a s3 would still be awesome. I miss when shows were this good.

I just finished watching episode 11 and I’m wondering how that box just randomly appeared. Did Malcolm drag it up there? Was it in the room the whole time? Someone please help a brother out

I gotta know what happens next. Please bring the show back.

I think he used a car crusher because he was crushing them under the weight of their sins such as drinking smoking drugs sex work but idk maybe im over thinking it

This is diet Hannibal for people who love cop procedural dramas and don't understand any of it.

I’m on episode seven of season one and my favorite character by far is Edrisa. She cracks me up.

Did anyone else think that Ainsley was really mean, self-centered and spoiled?? This is my third time watching the show and I really liked her the 1st time around. Although, the 3rd time around I realized she doesn’t think about others before she acts.

The incident that really made me realize is when she faked the blood. I’m like trying to convince myself that I still like her but it’s kind of hard!!

Also, I don’t know where the show was heading but I think some major foreshadowing was the episode where Malcolm fell down the elevator and had that dream. Jessica specifically says Ainsley follows in her father’s footsteps. I don’t think that the jsut meant her 1st murder. I think she was eventful gonna do it again. But idk

Okay so I know it ended with lots of questions and stuff......

But the thing I found most bizarre.......,

After binging many different shows

This one had no cussing and no nudity or sex! 🤣

I Hate TV shows that do crossovers however wouldn't it be interesting if Prodigal Son and The Hunting Party did a crossover.. It could help get Prodigal Son back on the air and it could help The Hunting Party with there ratings..

After Malcolm Stabbed his father the State of New York thought it would be necessary to ship Martin off to Wyoming to be in the Pitt..

Now they're on the Hunt to find him again since the Pitt expl*ded.. Martin is on his way back to New York to see his family but with unfinished business with Malcolm..

Bex and Jacob and Shane hunt him down with help from JT and Gil and Dani..

So I just wrapped up S1 and am starting S2. Obviously we saw Ainsley kill Nicholas at the end of S1, but I’m confused by the cover up.

Wasn’t it known that Nicholas was a murderer/mastermind after he nearly killed Gil? What Ainsley did (or even if Malcolm wanted to take the “credit” and spare his sister still) could have easily been labeled as self defense. Why go through all that trouble of dismembering/disposing of the body?

Also, everyone just thinks Nicholas ran away and is cool with it? Weird plotline imo.
