What is Gaslit Season 1 about?
Gaslit is the latest historical drama, one that takes on a modern look at the 1970’s political Watergate scandal. The show is a modern take on the scandal, focusing on forgotten characters and untold stories from the time. Whether it be Nixon’s subordinates, tragic whistleblowers or deranged zealots, Gaslit flits around to different characters, showing an interesting take on a well-known topic. Among those characters we have Martha Mitchell and her husband John. There’s also John Dean’s ambition to ascend into the White House Counsel, unwittingly thrown into Nixon’s re-election campaign instead. Not only that, but we also see the FBI investigation, a separate thread involving a security guard called Frank and several other supporting players too.
Has Gaslit been renewed for season 2?
At the time of writing, Starz have not renewed Gaslit for season 2. Given this show has been billed as a limited series, it would seem unlikely that this one will be renewed. Not only that, but the show is also historical fiction, depicting a real life event that occurred, adding a modern spin and showing the story from different perspectives. With all that in mind, it’s safe to assume that it’s highly unlikely this one will be renewed for season 2. Given Starz have not given given confirmation either way (at least at the time of writing this article!), then we’ll have to wait and see. We’ll be sure to update this section with more details as they become available.
What we know about season 2 so far:
Barely anything is known about season 2 at this point, given Starz have not green-lit a sequel. As detailed above, this show has been billed as a limited series and as such, it would be highly unlikely if this is green-lit for a follow-up. But hey, stranger things have happened in the TV space! Given Starz haven’t actually confirmed either way yet, we’ll have to wait and see. For now though, we’re under the impression that there will not be a season 2 but we will aim to update this page when more information becomes available.
