Will Trent Season 2 is not coming to ABC in July 2023

Another month is here, but it doesn’t mean another season of our favorite shows. When will Will Trent Season 2 premiere on ABC?

There is no doubt that the world wants more Will Trent. We do anyway, but there’s some terrible news. The season isn’t arriving just yet.

Look, we didn’t expect it, did we? There is no way ABC is going to bring back a big show during the summer break. This is the time for unscripted programming as it costs less to make, so the lower ratings don’t suffer as much. We will get a few scripted shows, but nothing that could be a big ratings draw like Will Trent.

When will Will Trent Season 2 premiere on ABC?

The bad news is we have a long wait ahead of us. At first, we weren’t sure if ABC would hold off until the midseason for the second season. The first season premiered in the midseason and was a big success. That wasn’t surprising with The Rookie and The Rookie: Feds leading it in.

Well, there were a few things out of the schedule’s control. The biggest is the writers strike. The writers still aren’t back in their rooms, and it does mean a delayed fall. Well, ABC already planned for this.

None of the scripted shows are coming back in the fall. ABC has opted for an unscripted lineup, so the earliest we will see Will Trent Season 2 is in January 2024. There’s no guarantee of this date. It’s just the earliest that we’ll get it. We’ll be sure to keep an eye on how things go, but don’t expect to hear any details until around November 2023 when it comes to the midseason lineup.

Will Trent is available to stream on Hulu.
