It seems that Daisy May Cooper's show, Rain Dogs, won't be returning for another season. According to reports, the BBC has decided to axe the drama series, which starred the talented This Country comedian alongside Jack Farthing, Ronke Adekoluejo, Adrian Edmondson, and Fleur Tashjian. Rain Dogs first premiered in March of last year and introduced us to the intriguing characters of writer Costello Jones, her daughter Iris, and a privileged gay man named Selby, all brought to life by the brilliant writing of Cash Carraway.
Unfortunately, it seems that the show's second season is not in the cards, despite Daisy's recent arrival of her third child. Sources say that she is disappointed by the reported decision to end the show. The Sun reports that, "it's disappointing for Daisy as Rain Dogs was a good opportunity to make some inroads in the US. But unfortunately, it didn't rate too well on both sides of the pond. So the production company behind it, Sid Gentle, agreed with Cash it was time to move on." Although some critics praised the writing, the show ultimately didn't make a big impact.
But fans of Daisy need not worry, as there is another series in the works for her. While there are no plans for a second season of Rain Dogs, Am I Being Unreasonable? is set to return, starring Daisy herself. The BBC is also discussing potential future projects with Cash, outside of Rain Dogs. Despite the cancellation, the show received rave reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, with a 93% rating on the Tomatometer and a 79% audience score. Many fans are disappointed by the news, with one reviewer commenting, "I loved this show and all of the characters! I love how I haven't quite figured everything out, and I feel that the story hasn't quite been told. I would love to see another season!"
Another reviewer wrote, "A show you can watch again and again and I cannot usually watch any series twice. Hope there is a season 2, Daisy May Cooper needs to be in more stuff." And another fan added, "Didn't expect it to be so good. Not even one single boring moment. It was a bit difficult to figure out their relationship in the first 2-3 episodes. There wasn't any 'explanation' either. It would get you thinking and eventually you'd get it. What an engaging story!"
Daisy first rose to fame with her hit debut series, This Country, which she also co-wrote. She then followed it up with the twisted comedy, Am I Being Unreasonable, which also received great reviews. This Country also starred Daisy's real-life dad, Paul Cooper, as Kerry's terrible father, Martin Mucklowe. Unfortunately, the news of Rain Dogs ending comes after the announcement that another beloved sitcom, Motherland, will not be returning for another season. Fans of the comedy, which starred Diane Morgan, were devastated by the news.
Diane shared, "I hate to say it, because I still get women running up to me with prams in the street asking me when it's coming back." It seems that the entertainment team at The Agency has reached out to both the BBC and HBO for comment on the cancellation of Rain Dogs.
