So You Wanna Binge "Midnight, Texas" But How Long Will You Be Stuck?
Ah, "Midnight, Texas." A show where the residents are more interesting than your average cul-de-sac crew. Vampires? Check. Psychics who see dead people? Double check. A sassy bowling alley owner with a mysterious past? Honey, that's just the tip of the iceberg.
But before you dive headfirst into this quirky supernatural town, a question might be nagging at you: just how many episodes am I in for? Buckle up, buttercup, because we're about to unravel the mystery (though, spoilers, there are no actual ghosts involved... this time).
The Short and Sweet of It
Want the quick answer? "Midnight, Texas" has a total of 19 episodes. That's two seasons of spooky small-town shenanigans. Not a bad haul, considering most Netflix documentaries about competitive pigeon racing seem to drag on for an eternity.
But Wait, There's More!
Now, here's where things get interesting. Originally, "Midnight, Texas" was planned to have a whopping 13 episodes in its first season. That's a baker's dozen of supernatural thrills! But plot twist! The show did so well that NBC, in a move that probably involved celebratory high fives all around, decided to renew it for a second season. This gifted us with an additional nine episodes, bringing the grand total to 19.
Here's the Breakdown (Because We Like Options):
- Season 1: 10 episodes (they trimmed one from the original plan, probably because someone needed a vacation)
- Season 2: 9 episodes (all hail the mighty nine!)
Is That All She Wrote?
Sadly, yes. Despite the cliffhanger ending of season two, "Midnight, Texas" wasn't picked up for a third season. Conspiracy theories abound (fan outrage? a sudden influx of competitive pigeon racing documentaries?), but the truth remains a mystery.
So, the verdict? "Midnight, Texas" might not be a never-ending buffet of supernatural goodness, but with 19 episodes, it's a satisfying binge-watch that won't leave you hanging for years. Just don't get too attached, because saying goodbye to these quirky characters might sting a little.
