Fox is preparing their fantasy schedule for the 2023-2024 season, and Fantasy Island is not on it.
The sequel to the 1977 series starred Roselyn Sánchez, Kiara Barnes, and John Gabriel, with Sánchez playing Mr. Roarke’s grand-niece.
Personally, since it is about me, I think they are making a mistake. It was an original show, even though it was a sequel, that was enjoyable to watch. And it was educational because each episode came with a little lesson. Just because you get what you want doesn’t mean you want it. And if you do, are you better off?
And I think it would’ve been better off and gotten a third season had Fox kept it as a summertime series instead of giving it a year and a half off and moving it to midseason. It was not an in-season show because it felt like summer.
Hopefully, a streamer will see this news and pick up the series for another season. Although, I have to admit yesterday’s episode ending felt like a perfect goodbye.
