Norris) have gotten permission from Amazon to shop the show around to other possible buyers. (God knows what the Blue Book value is on a lightly-used Prime Video cast-off, but we can\u2019t fault the optimism.) Executive producer Jason Seagraves issued a statement today, saying he and his team \u201cSet out to make a show with no agenda and a lot of heart, to give families something they can watch together,\u201d and that, \u201cDespite going into release with impossibly low audience awareness, our passionate and vocal fan base led the charge and made the series impossible to ignore.

(Blame that \u201cimpossibly low audience awareness,\u201d we guess.) The series, which also starred Nathalie Kelley, Uriah Shelton, and Nicolas Cantu, dropped its ten extant episodes back on May 20, 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.avclub.com\/articles\/article-type\/features\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:More from A.V.
