Renewed Or Cancelled?
The Perfect Mother is a crime drama that takes a simple premise and adds in a dollop of soapy melodrama and numerous flashbacks to the night in question. The show follows the lives of four women as they try to make sense of what happened that night, all while trying to keep up with the demands of their perfect mother.
We know that a renewal is in the works for this one.
What is The Perfect Mother about?
The Perfect Mother is a mystery novel that centers around a high profile murder case.
This is a story about Helene, the mother who learns her daughter is the suspect in the murder of her husband. While Anya claims she didn’t kill Damien, all evidence seems to support that she did. The story follows Helene as she tries to piece together what happened and who was responsible for her husband’s death.
Helene is back in town and she’s teaming up with a lawyer (and old flame) Vincent to try and piece together what happened that fateful night. But can Helene handle the truth? And is her daughter as innocent as she first perceived? ..

Has The Perfect Mother been renewed for season 2?
The Perfect Mother was not renewed for a second season, likely due to the ambiguous ending. ..
Netflix typically gauges numerous metrics before renewing a show, including how many people initially watch it and then looking at the drop-off rate per episode. With some shows, cancellations or renewals happen quickly (ala. Squid Game, Bridgerton & Irregulars). Other times, it can take months before Netflix make a decision over a show’s future. ..
Critics have given the novel mixed reviews, with some praising its writing and plot while others find it formulaic and unoriginal. Audiences have also been mixed, with some enjoying the book while others find it forgettable.
Based on the ending and reception, we predict that The Perfect Mother will not be renewed for a second season. Just to add weight to this, The Perfect Mother is an adaptation of a novel of the same name, and the ending does conclude in the same way as the book. ..
We’ll be sure to update this section with more details as they become available.
What we know about season 2 so far:
Netflix has not green-lit a sequel to season 2 of “House of Cards.” This is likely due to the high ratings and critical acclaim that season 1 received.
If the streaming giants do renew this one, there are a few different ways this could go. Most notably, we could see Anya get back up to old tricks, blackmailing someone else into submission. This could then have Vincent and Helene teaming up once more and reigniting the angst with Matthias as a result.
We’re still waiting for confirmation that a second season of “Stranger Things” won’t happen, but we’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available. ..
