Jessica Knappett developed the British sitcom Drifters. Simon Wilson and Damon Beesley serve as executive producers. The sitcom follows two cousins and their friend as they transition from high school to university. On October 31, 2014, the series premiered. Season 4 debuted on October 10, 2016. Drifters is now available on the E4 network. On IMDb, the series has a rating of 7.0 out of 10.
Unfortunately, the show’s creator, Knappett, confirmed the cancellation of Drifters on Richard Herring’s Leicester Theatre Podcast.
Season 5 of Drifters has been cancelled?
Throughout its four seasons, the series averaged 0.5 million viewers each episode. Despite this, the show was met with mixed reactions. The show was accused of taking an unrealistic approach to life’s challenges. Knappett, on the other hand, believes that the majority of the storey is true and based on his own experiences. Some even went so far as to declare the show slow and the characters weak.
All of the criticism forced E4 to cancel the show. Despite the fact that viewers had anticipated the renewal. By 2019, E4 had not made a final choice. As a result, Knappett decided to cancel the show entirely.
