NBC premiered The Thing About Pam on March 9th, 2022.

The six-episode limited series, in which Renée Zellweger makes her network television debut, chronicles the murder of Betsy Faria in 2011 and the subsequent conviction of her husband Russ.

Russ, who insisted on his innocence and was ultimately found not guilty, nevertheless set off a chain of events that exposed a highly unsettling plot involving Pam Hupp, Betsy’s coworker.

Will There Be a Season 2 of The Thing About Pam?

Regrettably, no. There will only be six episodes because the show is only a short run. But there may be some good news along the road for genre enthusiasts.

Big Picture Co., Renee’s production firm that she co-founded with Carmella Casinelli in 2019, produced the program. based on Harper’s Bazaar “The Thing About Pam isn’t so much a limited series as it is a Trojan horse, posing as an A-list one-off while actually being a potential franchise. We’re hoping to find the next The Thing About Pam so we can produce a second season,’ Casinelli says. or the seasons.”

Renee won’t be playing Pam any longer, but it sounds like there might be room for another true crime story to be dramatized in this manner in the future.

Why The Thing About Pam Won’t Be Returning For Season 2?

The NBC program The Thing About Pam was developed as a short mini-series, so it won’t be coming back for season 2.

Therefore, now that all six episodes have aired, viewers shouldn’t anticipate any additional episodes in the future because its tale was always meant to be told over just one season.

Pam Hupp is currently incarcerated for life for the murder of Louis Gumpenberger and is standing trial for the suspected murder of Betsy Faria, as depicted in the television series.

There is no longer a tale to be told as of episode 6 because the show has updated viewers on the whereabouts of the actual Pam Hupp.

We’ll have to wait and see if Pam Hupp’s true story has any surprises in store.
