If you're tuning in to watch the season finale of Watchmen, you're probably wondering if the story will be truly over or if there's a chance we'll see more of the series. Interestingly, Damon Lindelof may have teased on the possibility that Season 2 could happen.
Lindelof recently spoke to Variety about the first season and not surprisingly, he was asked if people can look forward to a second season. At first, the Watchmen series creator claimed they "designed this story to end." On the other hand, he also pointed out that the reaction to Season 1 might lead to a follow-up.
"I am deeply, profoundly appreciative for how well received the season has been up until now, and I don't want to feel like I'm ungrateful, but I still don't have any inclination whatsoever to continue the story," Lindelof said. "And that is largely and almost exclusively based on the fact that I don't have an idea. If I'm going to be involved in any more Watchmen, I should be able to answer the questions, why, and why now, and the answers to those questions shouldn't be, ‘Well because that's what you do, because the first one was good.'"
If you're a little confused about this, Lindelof then laughed and added that fans shouldn't lose hope on Season 2.
"I'm not saying there shouldn't be a second season of Watchmen, and I'm not even saying that that season shouldn't feature some of the characters in this season of Watchmen. I just don't know what it should be," he said.
At this point, we're convinced that Lindelof is hiding something from us. Perhaps the second season is already being planned but he's still trying to figure out how to continue with the series. In the meantime, we're waiting for HBO to give us an official update on the show's renewal.
