The debut season of Netflix\u2019s The Waterfront<\/a><\/em> took viewers on a wild ride \u2014 one that ended with an intriguing Season 2 setup.<\/p>\n The show, which premiered on June 19, followed the Buckley family as they try to save their North Carolina fishing empire. While turning to drug smuggling to get the money needed to save the family business, the Buckleys find themselves in a dangerous situation after crossing paths with a dangerous drug lord named Grady (Topher Grace<\/a>).<\/p>\n As fans await renewal news, we\u2019re breaking down everything you need to know about The Waterfront<\/em>\u2018s potential return on Netflix.<\/p>\n The show, which comes from Dawson\u2019s Creek<\/em><\/a> and Scream<\/em><\/a> creator Kevin Williamson<\/a>, was not renewed for a second season. Deadline<\/a> was first to report the news on August 25, with sources telling the trade that Williamson informed cast and crew about the decision himself.<\/p>\n After being abducted, Bree (Melissa Benoist<\/a>) was shot and thrown overboard by Grady and left on a life raft to bleed out. Luckily, her family came to the rescue and got revenge against Grady. During his final confrontation with the Buckleys, Grady is shot in the face by Cane (Jake Weary<\/a>) and again by Harlan (Holt McCallany<\/a>) before falling off the ship to his watery demise.<\/p>\n Cane also sought to mend his marriage with Peyton (Danielle Campbell<\/a>) after reconnecting with his former flame, Jenna (Humberly Gonz\u00e1lez<\/a>). The season finale ended on a cliffhanger, with Harlan\u2019s wife, Belle (Maria Bello<\/a>), being confronted by the leader of a more powerful crime family, Emmett Parker (Terry Serpico<\/a>).<\/p>\n \u201cThe Buckleys might be the big family in town, but they\u2019re really a much smaller operation,\u201d Williamson shared in an interview with Netflix\u2019s Tudum<\/em><\/a>. \u201cThe Buckleys are the big fish in the small town. But the Parkers? They\u2019re a school of sharks.\u201d<\/p>\nHas The Waterfront<\/em> been renewed for Season 2?<\/h2>\n
