Prime Video's Motorheads Season 1 has finally ended in a high-stakes episode titled "Redbirds". Set in a racing backdrop, season 1 was an adrenaline-filled emotional ride, leaving us to wonder whether there is a renewal in the cards for this show. At the time of this article's publishing, Prime Video has not officially announced whether Motorheads will be renewed for another season, so it remains to be seen whether the show will be renewed for a second season.
The show revolves around Zac, the son of a racer who mysteriously disappeared years ago. Zac moves into his father's old town along with his mother and sister, and he's forced to confront some dark family secrets as he takes on the generational love for racing. The official synopsis reads:
"Motorheads is about first love, first heartbreak, and turning the key in your first car. Set in a once-thriving rust-belt town that’s now searching for a glimmer of hope, the series is an adrenaline-filled story of a group of outsiders who form an unlikely friendship over a mutual love of street racing, while navigating the hierarchy and rules of high school."
Here's everything we know about the possibility of a renewal for the show.
Is Prime Video's Motorheads coming back for another season?
At the moment, there is no official update on whether Motorheads will be renewed for another season. Since the show ended its first season very recently, it is too soon for Prime Video to announce whether it will be renewed. There are a lot of factors, including viewership numbers, that need to be considered before such a decision is made or announced.
Motorheads has a very interesting concept, and the season finale was constructed in a way that many questions need another season to be answered. Most viewers have found it to be a fun and binge-worthy experience, so there is a very high probability that the show will be renewed for another season.
However, there has also been some critical feedback about the show, which might not work in favor of a renewal from the streaming network. Additionally, Prime Video has been exceptionally critical in the projects it picks up for renewals, as well-performing shows like The Bondsman and Bosch: Legacy have been cancelled despite being quite popular with the audience.
There is no way to predict at the moment whether Motorheads will be renewed for another season by Prime Video, but it is certain that the cast and crew are hoping for a renewal and have planned the finale as such. Mia Healey, who plays Alicia on Motorheads, recently talked about her excitement for the possible second season in a conversation with Decider:
"I mean, it’s kind of frustrating in a way because we’re like, “Um, can we read the next one? Like, I want to know what happens.” I can’t believe we have to wait so long to figure it out because we don’t know either. It’s so up in the air for us as well. But also, of course, excited. I love those scripts that you just – it’s bingeable, you know? And I love those shows. So it was, like, “Oh sh*t, this is good.” "
The first season ended on an extremely ambiguous note as Zac, Caitlyn, Logan, and Sam are on a journey to figure out the truth behind Christian's disappearance seventeen years ago. The surprising twist that Christian might be alive and living in hiding was the high point for season 1 and will most probably be the track that is explored in the second season, if the show is renewed.
