‘Orphan Black: Echoes’ Canceled at AMC After One Season

As a film enthusiast with a soft spot for intricate plots and strong female characters, I must confess my disappointment at the cancellation of “Orphan Black: Echoes.” Having followed the original series closely, I was eagerly anticipating the continuation of this captivating narrative. The cast, particularly Krysten Ritter, seemed perfectly suited to their roles, and I was intrigued by the mystery of Lucy’s origin story.


“Orphan Black: Echoes” has been canceled at AMC Networks.

The single season of this show initially aired on cable networks from June in the U.S., concluding on August 25th. This final episode now stands as the series finale. The show was broadcasted on AMC, BBC America, and streaming platform AMC+.

In “Echoes,” Krysten Ritter took on a leading role, acting as a continuation of the popular BBC America show “Orphan Black.” Alongside her, the talented cast consisted of Keeley Hawes, Amanda Fix, Avan Jogia, Rya Kihlstedt, and James Hiroyuki Liao.

This show centers around a group of women who interconnect and embark on an exhilarating adventure, aiming to solve the enigma of their past identities while unearthing a heart-wrenching tale of affection and deceit. Ritter portrays Lucy, a woman with an extraordinary backstory, seeking her place in the world.

Anna Fishko created the show, overseeing it as showrunner and executive producer. John Fawcett, one of the original series’ co-creators, took on roles as both executive producer and director. David Fortier and Ivan Schneeberg, who were executive producers on the original series from Boat Rocker, also executive produced “Echoes” along with Nick Nantell from Boat Rocker, plus Katie O’Connell Marsh and Kerry Appleyard. Boat Rocker handles the worldwide management of the “Orphan Black” franchise, including content distribution and merchandise production.
