The Scott Speedman drama will return for Season 2.
May 8, 2026
ABC announced today that R.J. Decker has been picked up for a second season. The news comes less than two weeks after the drama wrapped its 9-episode freshman run. The renewal is the network's final scripted series pickup for the 2026-2027 television season.
Inspired by the novel "Double Whammy" by Carl Hiaasen, the series stars Scott Speedman as the titular disgraced newspaper photographer and ex-con who is starting fresh as a private investigator in the crime-filled world of South Florida. The job finds him tackling cases ranging from slightly odd to outright bizarre with the help of his journalist ex, her police detective wife, and a shadowy new benefactor - a woman from his past who could be his greatest ally... or his one-way ticket back to prison.
