Has The Waterfront been renewed for Season 2? Here's what we know:
Renewed or Cancelled?
The Waterfront is the latest soapy crime drama on Netflix, armed with a dysfunctional family, a simple premise and an intriguing cast of characters. Having watched the first season in its entirety, you may be wondering if this one has been renewed or cancelled. Well, wonder no more!
What is The Waterfront about?
The Waterfront is a Southern-set Netflix drama that follows the Buckley family, once rulers of Havenport's fishing industry. After patriarch Harlan Buckley suffers multiple heart attacks, the family business starts to sink.
In a desperate bid to stay afloat, Harlan's wife Belle and their son Cane secretly get involved in drug smuggling—drawing the attention of the DEA after a major shipment disappears.
As the season progresses, this dynamic takes on a slightly more sinister edge, as Harlan is pulled back into the company and the pair start working with shady characters.
We have extended coverage of The Waterfront across the site, including recaps for every episode. You can find those HERE!
Has The Waterfront been renewed for Season 2?
At the time of writing, The Waterfront has not been renewed for season 2. Generally Netflix would gauge numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate.
With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly. Other times, it can take months before a decision over a show's future is made. So far, Aniela has had a mixed reaction online from critics and audiences alike.
Given the way this show is set up, and the ending we receive, we're predicting that this will be renewed for a second season.
The series has lots of potential, and we also know that Netflix tend to shine a much more favourable light on soapy dramas like this.
Having said that, we do also know that completion rate is a massive metric for these streamers so that could play a pivotal role here. For now, we'll have to wait and see what happens so take our prediction with a pinch of salt!
What we know about season 2 so far:
Barely anything is known about The Waterfront season 2 at this point given Netflix haven't officially renewed or cancelled this one. Given the first season's conclusion, it does seem likely to get the nod for another season though but we'll have to wait and see.
Seeing Cane and Harlan find newfound respect for each other, while Diller and Bree also manage to go from estranged to respecting each other are two of the better moments for the finale.
When it comes to Belle though, it seems like she's prepped to be the new leader and it will almost certainly cause friction with Harlan. And what is Peyton planning? She seems way too calm after everything that's taken place with her husband; she could also be planning something too.
The final episode does end on a pretty big cliffhanger here so if this is picked up, we can expect another 8 episodes, and perhaps more dramatic mishaps and a new player in the drug game too..
We will update this page when more information becomes available, so be sure to check this page out in the near future.

JoJo Siwa gushes over boyfriend Chris Hughes and quips they've already discussed marriage as she admits she 'wishes he was with her' after she flew home to the US
JoJo Siwa has quipped she and boyfriend Chris Hughes have already discussed marriage, as she gushed about the star after flying home to the US. The Dance Moms star, 22, is back in America after spending two weeks with the Love Island star at his home in the UK, where the pair finally confirmed their romance following weeks of speculation. And speaking to TMZ while enjoying dinner with pal James Charles on Wednesday, JoJo said said things between herself and Chris, 32, are 'going great.' She said: 'He is my favorite person in the world … It's beautiful, it kind of radiates. He's my favorite person and I am very grateful and very happy.' Admitting that she is missing her boyfriend, JoJo added that she 'wished he was there' with her. The star was then asked whether she had considered marriage with Chris yet, but she brushed it off by stating she has 'so many thoughts.' Meanwhile, Chris has spent the week working at Royal Ascot with hospitality brand ICON by Engage, sharing snaps of his trips to the races on Instagram. Last week JoJo shared the surprise news that she was postponing her US tour, which had been due to kick off on July 10. An announcement made on the website said the dates have been postponed, with those who booked tickets set to be refunded. She also teased that there would be more shows in Europe announced soon in a hint that she could be staying in the UK for longer. It came just days after it was revealed JoJo has been dropped by record label Columbia earlier this year. The website seemingly detailing her live shows now reads: 'I've got some news that breaks my heart to share... my US tour has to be postponed. 'I promise I'll be back before you know it to perform for all the beautiful people in the US!... Announcements will be coming soon, including some Europe shows!:) 'Thank you so much for your understanding and support. I can't wait to see you all soon! 'To my Dream Guest VIPs, my team will be reaching out to you individually to plan something special. Refunds will be issued at point of purchase.' MailOnline has contacted a representative for JoJo for comment. JoJo had been signed to the record company Columbia in 2024, and she released her single Karma and EP Guilty Pleasure with the label. But less than a year later, the US reality star is no longer working with Columbia Records and released her latest song Bulletproof independently. Elsewhere, The Sun reported on Friday that JoJo and Love Island star Chris have been in talks with ITV bosses about their own reality TV show, with it being lined up to air on ITV2 later in the year. Elsewhere, The Sun reported on Friday that JoJo and Love Island star Chris have been in talks with ITV bosses about their own reality TV show, with it being lined up to air on ITV2 later in the year. A source told the publication: 'It's still in the early stages but ITV really think they'd be amazing TV with their own show. 'Fans around the world are obsessed with their relationship and there are so many TikTok accounts devoted to their love story.' They added: 'Chris and JoJo are keen too, and while there is no deal signed yet, the talks have been really promising.' Before confirming their romance, JoJo and Chris played coy over their relationship status – despite numerous cosy public outings After forming a close bond in the Celebrity Big Brother house, JoJo finally confirmed earlier this month that she and Chris are officially an item and that she's started calling him her boyfriend. In an interview with Capital Radio, JoJo said: 'I'm sure it's no secret to people, I am in a lovely relationship with a sweet boy named Christopher Hughes.' She also gushed about her blossoming romance with Chris in an interview with The Guardian when asked whether things between them were still platonic. 'It's not platonic anymore, and it's been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I'm absolutely head over heels for him and he's the same way,' she told them.

Kathy Griffin reveals shock confrontation with Barbara Walters over turning down million dollar job offer
is opening up about a shocking confrontation with Barbara Walters when she was guest-hosting on The View. Walters created the daily talk show and was a fixture on the panel alongside Joy Behar, Meredith Viera, Star Jones and Debbie Matenopoulos when the show debuted in 1997. While Walters left the panel in 2014, she remained as an executive producer until her passing in December 2022 at 93. Since the original lineup, there have been a slew of guest hosts, one of whom was Griffin, who guest hosted from May 2007 to September 2007. She has said many times in her stand up comedy routines that she was 'banned' from The View, and now she's explaining why. Griffin, 64, filmed a new video for her YouTube page this week, where she revealed Walters was not pleased after Griffin turned down a permanent hosting spot. She began the video by calling Walters a 'bad-ass journalist' and added she, 'loved doing that show.' She said she co-hosted the show 'something like 27 times,' adding she was flying from Los Angeles to New York City each time. 'They pay you scale and stuff but they don't dress you and they don't pay for makeup outside the hair and makeup room and they're already so busy and over booked and all that stuff,' she added. 'So eventually I said to my agent "Okay tell them if they're going to offer me a permanent chair please tell them to just offer me the chair or not." But I keep flying out there and they're trying out new hosts so much that I'm like I'm done auditioning did I get the job or not?" She added, 'So they made me an offer and the offer was for $1.4 (million) and I am just going to be honest i had to turn it down, because at the time between doing My Life on the D-list and touring I was making about 10 a year.' 'So I had to turn down The view because I would have had to uproot my whole life. My mom was still alive and my dad might have still been alive actually and I didn't want to leave them and my mom and dad didn't want to get on airplanes anymore so there wasn't a situation where I could have brought them with me and it was a whole thing,' she added. Griffin continued, 'I remember when they offered me the job Barbara Walters said backstage one time before we were about to go out and do the live show, "They say we have chemistry i don't really see it but they say we do," and I loved that. I said "Of course we do Barbara people love when I give you s**t." And then she just roll her eyes.' The comedienne added that she waited until she had a private moment with Walters to tell her in person that she turned down the offer. 'It was important to me that I pull Barbara aside and I said, "I want you to know why I'm going to say no. It's not that I think I'm too good for the show, it's the opposite; the show is too good for me,"' she said. 'It was important to me that I pull Barbara aside and I said, "I want you to know why I'm going to say no. It's not that I think I'm too good for the show, it's the opposite; the show is too good for me,"' she said. 'I'm going to be honest, this is how much money I made last year. I will show you my tax returns. I don't want you to think I'm blowing smoke.'" While she cited a number of variables like moving costs and the home she owns in Los Angeles, in the end, Walters was not pleased. 'She did not like that one bit. She didn't care, they didn't up their offer by a penny. I think I might've said something like, "Can you meet me halfway?" And they didn't.' She claimed to be banned from the show but would return sporadically, including a 2009 appearance where she got into a spat with Elizabeth Hasselback, which she claimed got her 're-banned,' even though she did appear on a March 2024 episode as well.

Bruce Willis' wife Emma celebrates birthday with his ex Demi Moore and their family amid actor's dementia battle
Bruce Willis ' wife Emma Heming rung in her 47th birthday during a lowkey celebration with her blended family this week. The entrepreneur - who tied the knot with the Die Hard actor in 2009 - jumped to Instagram on Thursday to share moments from the special day while joined by her two children, as well as Demi Moore and Rumer Willis. Heming shares Mabel, 13, and Evelyn, 11, with Willis - who was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) back in 2023. Moore was previously married to Bruce from 1987 until their divorce was finalized in 2000. The former couple are parents to Rumer, 36, Scout, 33, and Tallulah, 31. In one image uploaded to Emma's latest carousel of snaps, she flashed a cheerful smile during a birthday dinner. She was surrounded by her two daughters, as well as the Golden Globe winner. Rumer's daughter Louetta also joined in on the lighthearted festivities - although Bruce as well as Scout and Tallulah were notably absent from the gathering. Another picture was taken as Emma - who officially turned one year older on June 18 - blew out a candle on top of a sugary slice of cake as the group spent time outside at a restaurant. A short clip included in the post showed Louetta, two - whom Rumer shares with ex Derek Richard Thomas - sweetly wishing Heming happy birthday. Lastly, the mom-of-two shared another reel as both she and her daughters enjoyed a bike ride outside. In the caption, she penned to her nearly 1 million followers: 'Over the past few weeks, I've been wrapped in so much love for my birthday. 'From Bruce, our girl's, my mom, my family, and dear friends. I feel their love and support holding me up in ways words can't always capture.' Emma concluded with, 'Thank you to everyone who sent birthday wishes. I truly felt your continued kindness and I'm grateful. I had a beautiful day.' Tallulah jumped to the comment section and wrote to Heming, 'You are so loved.' In 2022, Bruce 'stepped away' from acting following his aphasia diagnosis and the following year, it was revealed that he has frontotemporal dementia. Tallulah jumped to the comment section and wrote to Heming, 'You are so loved' The blended family has come together to support Willis and each other amid his ongoing battle with the illness. In March, they celebrated the retired actor's 70th birthday - and shared memorable pictures onto social media. During an interview with Town & Country Magazine last year, Emma opened up about how she receives support from Demi as well as the actress' three daughters. 'The family respects the way I'm looking after him; they really support me. If I need to vent, if I need to cry, if I need to rage - because all of that can happen and it's okay to have those feelings - they are always there to listen.' Heming added, 'I'm so thankful that we are this blended family. They're very supportive, very loving, and very helpful, and a lot of people don't have that.' She also expressed at the time that she doesn't 'shield' her daughters from their dad's diagnosis. Heming explained, 'This disease is misdiagnosed, it's missed, it's misunderstood. So finally getting to a diagnosis was key so that I could learn what frontotemporal dementia is and I could educate our children.' Emma added, 'I've never tried to sugarcoat anything for them. They've grown up with Bruce declining over the years. I'm not trying to shield them from it.' 'What I learned from our therapist was that if children ask questions, they're ready to know the answer. If we could see that Bruce was struggling, I would address it with the kids so they could understand, but this disease is chronic, progressive and terminal.' Heming told the outlet that their children don't tend 'to speak about the terminal side of this with them, nor have they asked.' However, she expressed that Mabel and Evelyn 'know that Daddy's not going to get better.' Emma said that she was not going to let 'FTD to take our whole family down. Bruce wouldn't want that,' while adding that she hopes to help the 'next family out there.' Over the past weekend, she paid a heartwarming tribute to her husband in celebration of Father's Day. She uploaded a throwback photo of daughter Mabel hugging her dad and wrote, 'Happy Father's Day to all the dads living with disability or disease, showing up in the ways they can and to the children who show up for them. 'What Bruce teaches our girls goes far beyond words. Resilience, unconditional love, and the quiet strength in simply being present. This photo says so much. Love deepens. It adapts. It stays, even when everything else changes.' However, she also candidly added that 'these symbolic days stir up a lot' and admitted that she was 'profoundly sad today.' 'I wish, with every cell in my body, that things could be different for him and lighter for our family.' Emma continued, 'As they say in our FTD community, "It is what it is." And while that might sound dismissive, to me, it's not. It grounds me. It helps me return to the acceptance of what is and not fight this every step of the way like I used to. 'Today, let's celebrate the bada** dads, those who are here, and those we carry with us Onward.' Rumer also shared a post in tribute of her dad Bruce and got candid about how she 'feels a deep ache.' She shared photos of the actor from over the years, including a black and white image as she embraced Willis. 'Today is hard, I feel a deep ache in my chest to talk to you and tell you everything I'm doing and what's going on in my life. To hug you and ask you about life and your stories and struggles and successes.' The actress added, 'I wish I asked you more questions while you could still tell me about it all. 'But I know you wouldn't want me to be sad today so I'll try to just be grateful reminding myself how lucky I am that you're my dad and that you're still with me and I can still hold you and hug you and kiss your cheek and rub your head I can tell you stories.' Rumer continued, 'I can watch the way your eyes light up when you see Louetta I will be grateful for every moment I have with you. I love you so much dad happy Father's Day. 'Sending love to all those who are in the boat with me or have lost their fathers, to the single moms who are the dads too, to my future baby daddy…' Emma is also preparing to release a book titled The Unexpected Journey - which will hit shelves later this year on September 9th.
