The Wilds has its future endorsed by Amazon Prime Video, and that’s not good news.
The young adult series was wound up by the tech giant after two seasons, reports Deadline. The rookie season met with a lot of interest and a quick renewal, but three months after he returned to a muted response, Amazon chose not to include a third.
The first season focused on a group of eight young women from all walks of life who ended up on a seemingly deserted island after a plane crash, only to discover later that it was all part of a social experiment.

The second season repeated the premise, but with the main cast of young men, although the female characters from the first season continued to perform.
Fans reacted heavily to the cancellation, gaining popularity on #RenewTheWilds on Twitter. Most of the fan posts focus on the power of the female cast and queer relationships, not the male characters introduced in season 2. Perhaps this shift in the show’s focus led to a more muted response in Season 2? Until one of the cast members or producers speaks on the cancellation, that’s just a guess.

The deadline says the cast became aware of the cancellation shortly before the news went online.
The Wilds was one of the first young pilots commissioned by Amazon Prime Video under the direction of Jennifer Salke, becoming the first to premiere and the first to receive a second season. Amazon is said to be committed to the continuation of young adult content.
The show has a solid score of 70 on MetaCritic, which is the average of critics’ reviews from both seasons. The cast’s performances and topics are commonly cited as highlights.
The Wilds can be watched in full on Amazon Prime Video.
