No Season 3 for the Superman prequel.
August 16, 2019
It is being reported that Krypton has been cancelled by Syfy after two seasons. The sad news comes just two days after the drama's sophomore finale, which now acts as its series ender.
The Superman prequel premiered last year with a 10-episode run that, despite mixed reviews, fared well for the cable network. Ratings in Season 2 did not fare as well, however, dropping in numbers by almost half.
Set on the titular planet 200 years before the birth of Kal-El, aka Superman, Krypton follows his grandfather Seg-El. He is the son of a disgraced scientist whose time travel research has cost the family their standing in society. With the House of El having fallen from grace, a power struggle ignites between the planet's elite classes. Things get worse when a hero arrives from the future with bad news regarding the family's bloodline.

Hey Joe Dirt, im curious as to how someone pointing out racist undertones makes them an idiot Especially if what that person pointed out is true?

I watched the first half of season one and just couldnt stomach it anymore. And I really WANTED to like this show. But in any case, my message to networks is PLEASE stop with Superman prequels. The public was already screwed up the cornhole in that category with Smallville. Watched that show for 10 years only to get MAJORLY let down at the end. Stop it.......just......STOP IT. BAD networks.......BAD, lol.

K: Put subtitles on when accents or the audio are not clear enough to understand. I have it on always just for that.

Good the show was terrible and fed the Racism garbage today.. The bad guys were almost all black and the good guys were almost all white. Really?

Krypton was awful. Smallville was way better and still holds up as the perfect example of how to do a prequel that doesn't suck.

Not surprised at all you could never understand what they were saying. It the dialect was so mumbled it sounded like drunk kiwi's whispering with marbles in their mouths.

Was interesting but can't say I'll miss it that much.
Having to go to other networks for good sci-fi is weird though. Why are they still named SyFy? Does no one over there have a vision?

Damn that was my favorite on syfy.
Maybe it was too expensive. They had some serious VFX in there done by the top studios.
