Is Deception Season 2 Renewed Or Cancelled?
Unfortunately, ABC network has officially canceled the said show in question for good as a clear announcement was made on the 11th of May, 2018, highlighting that there won’t be a season two after its first season was wrapped up.
Why Is There No Season Two Of Deception?
The decision to discontinue the show was made due to the decline in ratings of Deception’s first season. Seeing that:
- It only averaged a score of 0.71 in the 18-49 demographic, and
- It just gathered up to 3.51 million viewers.
Which is quite low as compared to other ABC’s shows like “Scandal” which was watched by more than eight million viewers in total.

Thus, its end was inevitable as the show’s overall performance more or less indicated to the production studios that it was not able to attract the attention of the larger public and because of which, the renewal order was not issued.
What Is Deception Season 2 Potential Release Date?
As for when Deception Season 2 will be released, we do not know yet, as ABC has not greenlit its revival.
But do not lose hope y’all! Fans are consistently demanding when Deception’s second season will come out, and if it keeps going on at the same rate, there is a high chance that if not ABC, then other networks might pick the show up from where it was left after its initial run.

What Is The Show “Deception” All About?
Created by Chris Fedak for ABC network, the series revolves around the story of a renowned magician that uses his skills of Deception, influence, and illusion for the purpose of assisting the government in solving high-profile cases and catching the most elusive criminals.
The show’s official description reads:
“After his career as a magician is ruined by a scandal, Las Vegas illusionist Cameron Black becomes the world’s first “consulting illusionist” as he works with the FBI to solve odd crimes.”
Thus, by doing so, the illusionist not only found his saving grace after his defamation, but he also has another place to stage the biggest illusions of his career to boost his ego.

The first season of Deception happens to have a total of thirteen episodes in total, each episode having a run time of forty-three minutes.
