Has ABC Renewed Will Trent For A Season 2?
As of the time this article is written, ABC had not yet revealed the fate of Will Trent Season 2. The first season has only shown eight episodes so far. There are still five episodes left, so we may not find out if Will Trent will be renewed or cancelled until the series finale airs. ABC will likely observe the ratings for the last episodes before making any final decisions.
Fans shouldn’t expect season 2 news until at least May, when the Season 1 finale of Will Trent is expected to air. But until then, we can only guess if Will Trent will have more episodes after the first 13.
After Season 1, Will ABC Decide To Cancel Will Trent?
Will Trent is a brand-new show, so whether or not it will be given a second season remains to be seen. Season one is often the toughest for new shows, so it will be interesting to see if ABC thinks Will Trent will survive beyond its first season. But let’s take a look at the data and see how Will Trent is doing.

But even though the numbers point to a possible second season, it all depends on how ABC feels about Will Trent. If it gets renewed, will its viewership numbers keep rising?
