After the Verdict producers hoping for second season

Nine drama producers have plans if the network is keen for more.

A second season for Nine drama After the Verdict isn’t yet an open and shut case, but if producers Ellie Beaumont & Drew Proffitt have their way, it wouldn’t necessarily end after 6 episodes.

“We’ve written it so it can do either,” Beaumont recently told TV Tonight.

“But obviously we love this cast….. you just want to watch those people and the chemistry between them we we’e really excited by. We knew we had great people, but it’s not until you put them all together that you know. There’s just great contrast, warmth and comedic timing between all of them. So of course, we’d love to see them keep going. But we’re just hoping, at least the audience respond to it.”

Would a second season still see the key characters including Michelle Lim Davidson, Magda Szubanski and Lincoln Younes on a new jury?

“We’ve got options, so we could go in many different way in terms of if there is a second series. We don’t necessarily have to have a whole new case and all new jurors,” Proffitt explained.

“These people by the end of the series are friends. So you can either continue on with them finding new things to investigate together or you could start a new case.”

After the Verdict continues 8:45pm Wednesday Sept 7 and 14 on Nine.

  1. it’s rating 290k on Wednesday, double that with regional viewers, encores, timeshifting and catch-ups. 109 people of bothered to rate it at 6.6 on the IMDB. They can’t be on another jury together because it’s a lottery, and they can’t be on a jury for 5 years because after you are called up you are exempt for 5 years. They could try to turn it into The Inbestigators. The Inbestigators is a much better show in writing, direction, editing and acting, so it would be difficult.
