HBO’s dystopian sci-fi series ‘Raised by Wolves’ was canceled after most effective two seasons, however why? Fans even created a petition to bring it again.

From The Flight Attendant to Raised by Wolves, it's transparent that HBO Max has delivered a number of a hit displays since its 2020 launch. Fans quickly fell in love with the streaming platform, but now, thanks to a Discovery and WarnerMedia merger, many shows are getting canceled — including Raised by Wolves.
The show's lovers are distraught. The dramatic sci-fi series has garnered reward from critics and fanatics alike, especially from its 2nd season. At one level, it used to be even HBO Max’s most well liked authentic collection. So why was once Raised by Wolves canceled, and what are we able to do to bring it back after its Season 2 cliffhanger finale? Is there a petition to keep it going?

‘Raised by Wolves’ was once canceled due to a Discovery and WarnerMedia merger.
In late April, AT&T offered WarnerMedia (HBO’s mother or father corporate) to Discovery in an unexpected merger. This created a new media conglomerate, Warner Bros. Discovery. Because of the transfer, the WarnerMedia cable channels TNT and TBS are no longer creating scripted series. Not most effective that, but Warner Bros. Discovery made up our minds to shut down the newly launched CNN+.
And now, it is canceling Raised by Wolves as well.

But Raised by the Wolves isn’t the best canceled display in 2022. The merger also brought about 10 cancellations on the CW, including Batwoman and Legacies, greater than the eight renewed collection on the community. CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels said during a Discovery investor call in April 2022 (in step with Variety) that as a result of WarnerMedia’s asset projection is $500 million lower than anticipated, “2022 will for sure be a messy 12 months.”
He went on to provide an explanation for that Warner Bros. Discovery is hoping to “rectify some of the drivers behind the business-case deviations” by cutting prices and converting programming.
But all hope is now not misplaced!
It’s imaginable ‘Raised by Wolves’ may come again for a 3rd season due to big name Abubakar Salim’s name to motion. Not to mention, there's also a petition.
Even sooner than the cancellation was once officially introduced, Abubakar Salim, who plays Father in Raised by Wolves, took to Reddit and Twitter to try to save the sequence. “It’s no longer surprising, particularly after the information of the mergers and what is going down at [Warner Bros. Discovery, which owns HBO Max], that a lot of shows aren't having their stories completed. And unfortunately, a type of displays is Raised by Wolves,” he wrote. But he went on to say, “There is hope.”
Call to motion #RenewRaisedByWolves
It’s now not sudden, especially after the information of the mergers and what is going down at Warner, that numerous displays aren't having their stories finished.
— Abubakar Salim (@Abzybabzy) June 3, 2022“You see, we’re in a novel position: we have a fully fleshed out and planned storyline, a Goliath of a manufacturing team in the back of us, improbable reception from critics and reviewers alike, and most crucially, a group base that is so robust the world over, it can not be omitted,” Abubakar revealed. “The explanation why the cancellation hasn’t been announced is as a result of there’s still a chance the story can continue, and be completed at a new house."

On Twitter, Abubakar asked of fans, “As we speak, Scott Free [Productions] and the creatives are pushing for the show to be continued in other homes — sharing the reception and pull of the show to other storytellers. ... So I’m asking for action. I see the pure love, passion and questions (too too many) that arise DAILY on Twitter for RBW. I’m now asking that you continue to, and with even more vigor, show that genuine love here, there, and everywhere as we search for that new home.”
#RenewRaisedByWolves One of the best sci-fi shows I've ever seen. The pure joy of weird sci-fi is rarely felt these days, replaced by either poppy MCU sci-fi or dark, gritty, david lynchian sci-fi mysteries.
To have something this unapologetically weird is a treasure. RENEW

The debates, questions (so damn many) and genuine enjoyment for good storytelling … I’m asking that you show that love, and have your voice heard throughout socials and help us find a new home.”
Abubakar even referenced a moment in which fan voices actually worked. “There is no denying that we are in a time where the power of a community's voice can make change. There've been many instances we’ve collectively witnessed where this has happened, one within entertainment that springs to mind is getting Snyder’s cut out there. … So let’s give it a shot. Let’s give it our all. Let’s get that door finally open, and get the light we see of this show, flooding into other homes.”
Raised by wolves was genuinely one of the best sci-fi shows I've ever seen. Incredibe performances, amazing story and a truly mesmerizing theme. The story mist continue, really need to hear more of father's jokes#RenewRaisedbyWolves #RaisedbyWolves
— Conbob 🏴🇪🇺🐻 (@conorpurvis) June 3, 2022For many fans and critics, Raised by Wolves has taken chances that many other series are afraid to take. They have delved into the dark and terrifying while still finding a way to keep us optimistic. And now, after the series’ cancellations, the actors are keeping that optimism going.
So if we want to keep Raised by Wolves going, tweeting out with #RenewRaisedbyWolves and even signing a Change.org petition may get the job achieved.
