Should Amazon renew Informer for Season 2?

Informer is one of the best shows on Amazon Prime Video right now. Should the streaming service renew Informer for Season 2?

Who else is still reeling from the ending to Informer Season 1? Everything came together, filling in the gaps slowly to finally showing who the shooter was and why he did it. Now, will Amazon renew Informer for Season 2?

It’s not completely up to Amazon. BBC is the one that will need to technically renew the series, but if/when it does, it will be up to Amazon to decide whether to get the second season. If the BBC does decide to cancel the series, Amazon could always save the show from that cancellation.

The question is whether a renewal is really necessary. And the short answer is yes.

Despite this working as a limited series, there is a storyline there to renew it. Unlike The ABC Murders, there is definitely a way to continue the overall storyline, whether continuing with Raza and Gabe or focusing on another person who is forced into becoming an informant for the cops.

Focusing more on Raza and Gabe is certainly preferably since the series was more about their relationship than the other storylines going on. In the end, it was purely about them and how Gabe was there for Raza when he needed it.

According to Digital Spy, there are talks for a second season. When Sohrab Noshirvani and Rory Haines wrote the series, they imagined it as a longer-than-one-season-series. Their focus was on that relationship between cop and informant in the end.

If BBC doesn’t renew it, Amazon should get in talks to renew it as a worldwide Prime Original. There isn’t just Raza and Gabe, but also Gabe and Emily, Gabe and Sharon, and Raza and his parents. Everyone’s lives were completely changed from that one fateful day and we need to revisit that. Sure, a second season won’t have the same impact but it will still be important for continuing these relationships and seeing the characters after the big event.
