This Comes as No Surprise

Season 2 of Bosch: Legacy, the sequel to (or is it spin-off from?) Amazon Prime’s long-running crime drama Bosch, isn’t expected to return to small screens until this coming fall. However, that show—now part of the lineup on Amazon’s ad-supported streaming service, Freevee—has already been renewed for a third season.

“The Season 3 pickup,” explains Deadline, “follows strong ratings for Season 1, which Amazon Freevee says delivered a higher number of viewers than any previous season of the mothership series Bosch.”

Both programs are, of course, based on Michael Connelly’s very popular succession of novels featuring Hieronymus “Harry” Bosch. The TV adaptations find actor Titus Welliver playing Connelly’s Los Angeles cop turned private eye, with Mimi Rogers in the role of Honey “Money” Chandler, a prominent defense attorney who sometimes turns to Bosch for investigative assignments, and Madison Lintz appearing as Harry’s daughter, Maddie, who has now become a rookie police officer.
