Freeform is keeping the Mortal Instruments in tune.
The cast of Shadowhunters on Monday (via a live Facebook chat) revealed that the supernatural drama has been picked up for a second season.
Based on Cassandra Clare’s Mortal Instruments book series, Shadowhunters follows a young woman named Clary Fray (Katherine McNamara) who discovers on her 18th birthday that she’s a destined to battle the forces of evil — and fall in love with a fellow Shadowhunter named Jace (Dominic Sherwood).

I am so excited for this! I am a HUMONGOUS fan of the books, and yes they stray away from it, but they warned us they were before the show even aired, I am in love with this show despite the differences because the differences are just adding another layer to the world that I have fallen in love with all over again! Here is to a second season and hopefully many more to come because there is so much source material and a fantastic world they are adding to!
I love how honest they are to the characters. It’s like a new experience, I love it. I still cherish the books but I do love this show as well!! Emeraude Toubia is a revelation and Luke is so bad ass!
Yes!!!!!!! I knew they were gonna renew it! Awesome can’t wait for season 2 even more! :D
when will season be shown on netflix or amazon fire tv????
that should be season 1
Where are you? Netflix has been adding a new ep every week up here in Canada.
It’s available internationally on Netflix the day after it airs in the US.
I’m happy it was renewed! I like this show a lot, with the exception of one actor’s ability to emote or even deliver lines with any level of conviction. The actor has improved slowly over the course of the first season so I’m hoping after a break between seasons I’ll see even more improvement in season 2 …
You’re talking about Alec aren’t you? I kind liked that the only time he seemed to act well was interacting with Magnus. Over all he’s improving. I don’t know who else you’d be referring lol
My guess would be Clary. She seems to be trying to hard to play the part. I saw her on another show recently and she was fine.
I’m going for Clary as well, Magnus, Alec and Simon I think are fine, Jace I wish was more sarcastic like he is in the books. Clary I think is the weakest of the actors.
I forgot about this but yes, I was referring to the actress playing Clary.
My guess would be all of them. They are all pretty bad, with the exception of Simon. I think Simon is the best actor of the bunch. I feel as though the others rush their lines or do very little emoting at all. Personally, I am a fan of the books and I was excited for the show, but I don’t think I will stick around for another season.
How are the ratings by the way, Andy? I always thought this show will bite the dust but now I can watch the episodes in peace knowing it got renewed.
Glad to hear it! Wondering if they’re going to try to stick with the approximate one-book-per-season format (meaning Season 2 = City of Ashes, and Season 3 would be the one we’re all waiting for…)

Thank god! So happy this got renewed. As a fan of the books I know it’s a lot different, but much better than the movie was! Can’t wait!
yay
this show is very funny :)
YAY!!!!! More MALEK!!!! <3
They need to sharpen up the awful acting and spend a little more on scenery as it looks so cheap.
THIS, though I would also add sharpen the writing too. :)
Awesome!
I stop watching being sure it was not going to be renewed
Fun surprise.
Fun surprise.
Happy Brooklyn is getting some love.
Except it’s shot in Toronto :)
Lol
Phoo: some of the scenes faked Greenpoint pretty well then!
Otoh better fake Greenpoint than another fake Midtown.
Still no Baby Daddy news…. they must be wanting to end it after 5 years.
As someone who hasn’t read the books and disliked the movie, Shadowhunters has turned into one of my new favorite shows. Not sure why but I’m loving this cast. So happy It’s getting renewed for a second season.
I’m in the same boat. I meant to read the books years ago but never started. Now that I love the show so much I watched the movie and have started buying all the books and reading them.
SO HAPPY. NOW HOPE WE GET MORE OF STORY FOR ALEC. CAUSE HE`S GREAT.
Excellent! I am loving the way it is changing certain things from the book. The last episode especially was amazing, by far the best so far. The Alec/Jace fallout and the wrench thrown into the Alec/Magnus relationship are exciting because they are different than what I was expecting. I’m so excited for this renewal!
The worst acted, written and produced show in the history of TV, Used to love the books. Now I can’t bring myself to finish one because I can’t unsee the terrible acting, horrible dialogue and terrible staging of this show.
Love love love this series. So much better than the film!! Just watched the 1st 11 episode’s in 1 day on Netflix. The only problem is I now have to wait till the 30th March for the next episode. The casting is perfect an so is the making of this series, so true to the books which I have read 4 times. Please make a series for all 6 books. Thank you so much…
im pumped for season 2 but the wedding ewwwwwww
