October 10, 2025
Word is out that Countdown has been cancelled by Prime Video after one season. The news comes a month after the crime drama wrapped its 13-episode freshman run. Star Jensen Ackles took to Instagram to let fans know the show will be not be continuing.
"As some of you may have seen already, Countdown did not get picked up for another season. Amazon's gonna let it go, and it's a bummer," said Ackles in the video message. "I had such an amazing time making that show. I had an absolute blast with the cast and the crew. Thank you to Derek for making the show and writing those characters. And thanks to Amazon for giving us the opportunity, especially Vernon Sanders for being such a champion for that show." See the full video below.
The series stars Ackles as LAPD detective Mark Meachum, who is recruited to a secret task force comprised of undercover agents from all branches of law enforcement in order to find the killer of an officer from the Department of Homeland Security. But the manhunt reveals a plot far more sinister than anyone could have imagined, kicking off a race against time to save a city of millions.

Another "so sorry". I also kind of liked this series.
