Renewed Or Cancelled?
Missing You is the latest Harlan Coben Netflix series that tells the story of a Missing Person’s Detective desperate to find out the truth. The show is undoubtedly fast-paced, and many may be curious if there will be a season 2 after finishing the show. Well, here’s what we know:
What is Missing You about?
Missing You is told through two parallel storylines. These plots take place in modern-day London and follow a detective called Kat Donovan. She’s plagued by the demons of her past, and specifically a murder than took the life of her father, Clint. The murderer, Monte, is behind bars and on death’s doorstep. Unfortunately, Kat’s woes also extend to her ex Josh, whom she’s really not over after he left her when she was at her lowest and grieving the loss of her dad.
From here, the story see-saws between two plotlines interwoven together. The inciting incident that sparks everything stems from Kat using an online dating app, only to find Josh on there as a singleton. Despite disappearing off the radar for over a decade, Kat is shocked to find him online.
As the series progresses, Kat investigates exactly what’s going on with Josh and why nobody has heard from him. This is then intertwined around a disappearance case for someone called Rishi, which is embroiled in a much larger conspiracy involving a big financial scam and more.

Has Missing You been renewed for season 2?
At the time of writing, Missing You has not been renewed for season 2. Generally Netflix would gauge numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate.
With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly. Other times, it can take months before a decision over a show’s future is made. So far, Missing You has had a pretty mixed reaction online from critics and audiences alike.
Given the way this show is set up, and given the ending we receive, we’re predicting that this will not be renewed for a second season. Netflix is yet to make an official statement on whether there will be a season 2, but we knew from the beginning that this is a limited series so the chances of this are very remote. The show is based on one of Harlan Coben’s mystery novels, and he has yet to say anything about the show’s future either so maybe we will, we’ll have to wait and see!
For now though, it would appear that Missing You is a one-and-done affair
What we know about season 2 so far:
The chances of a new season do feel quite remote here. First of all, the main plotlines have all been wrapped up, and despite that open ending, we knew going into this that the show would be a limited series. There’s not much room for a new story, unless the creators decide to explore the ties between Kat and Josh in more detail.
However, the series did pay off all the different mysteries, so the best we can hope for is a spin-off or even a prequel. Your best betis to wait for Netflix to announce their next Harlan Coben project!
