TRUTH SEEKERS (Amazon) - The streamer has pulled the plug on the ghost-hunting comedy after one season. "Sadly, 'Truth Seekers' will not be returning for a second season. 'Truth Seekers' has not been renewed, which is a massive kick in the willy for me," Nick Frost said in a video posted to social media. "We really put our all into this - our heart and soul, and blood in some cases, so to not come back is really sad for us. It's a shame. I think we had lots of lovely ghost stories to tell - stories that will remain now untold. If you liked the show, thank you. And if you didn't, are you happy now? Happy now?" (Deadline.com)
