It may be better to write straight to SVT - apparently a decision is due now in April...

Update: The above forum entry, with 50+ replies from all over the world asking for a third season was somehow deleted. Another one which still is online (SVT replied as late as September 12 that they still don't have any info if there'll be a third season): http://www.svt.se/tittarservice/fraga-oss/dialog/425332

reply

Signed ! Thanks for the link !

reply

So there may not be a third season? Has a decision been reached by any chance?

I google translated this article and it reports that SVT has ordered a third season and that writing for season 3 has already begun. Slated for a early 2015 release. I guess all we can do for now is sit back and wait. :/

reply

Nice! That's quite a wait, but it's good news. Thanks!

awesome news

a long wait is better then canceled

reply

That article was posted in Sep 2013 so I wouldn't really count on a third season until it's confirmed by SVT - they replied as late as 24 June 2014 that it isn't yet (see http://www.svt.se/tittarservice/fraga-oss/dialog/425332).

reply

But the serie can't just stop here, it would make no sense, it ends on a cliffhanger ! And it had sucess as far as I know...

reply

Very true but series have sadly been cancelled like that before... Anyway you'd think being such a success in so many countries the funding shouldn't be a problem, which otherwise is often the reason for cancellation.

Found another article, this one more recent from June this year.

Good news for fans of "Äkta människor 'third season since Swedish series should be released in 2015.

While nothing is official yet, it is virtually assured that the "Real Humans" series (or Äkta människor VO) will erect a season 3, which will be released sometime in 2015 in Sweden, and So again later in France. But the creator prefers his side to be careful, even if confirmed to have started writing the third season that everyone looks forward to.

"We do not yet know if Real Humans will be a third season . Swedish channel that broadcasts we had not yet decided. All we can do is wait and hope. But if it must be done, I know exactly what I want to tell in this season, and have already written several episodes. I will not say more to avoid spoilers you, "it said in an interview with the creator the series by Allocine.

For cons, the "Real Humans" series will erect an English remake which should offer even greater fame in the now legendary series. Good news for fans.

Since several eps for season 3 has already been written, I suppose, it's internal conflicts within SVT that's preventing the green light? Not sure if this is true or not but I read somewhere that while Real Humans is well received critically, the ratings are just low/average? Maybe that's why they're hesitant towards renewing it?

reply

Thanks. I found the original interview - a good one - which was published May 15, 2014: http://www.allocine.fr/article/fichearticle_gen_carticle=18633856.html

SVT just responded (August 26, 2014) that they still don't have any info about a third season: http://www.svt.se/tittarservice/fraga-oss/dialog/425332

reply

I want to shake someone-

'"Real Humans" or "Äkta människor" in its original version, perhaps there will be no season 3, as announced spin-site off.fr. A source working for the Swedish chain SVT1 their confirmed Season 2 of the sci-fi anticipation would be the last.

Hearings recorded by the chain are indeed far from satisfactory. Throughout the season, they have continued to fall and never reached the numbers of the first season. In France, on the contrary, a Real Humans very well on Arte , often over a million viewers.

The hope is still there

However, fans can rest assured, always contacted by Spin-off, Lars Lundström, the creator of the series, said he was still "hope" to see her back on the small screen for a third season. D especially since an English remake is in the pipeline and is planned for next year. '

Thanks for the update, original story: http://www.spin-off.fr/actualite-3697-18082014-real-humans-annulation- saison-3-akta-manniskor.html

So, if Lars Lundström, the creator of this extraordinary series says there's still hope for a third season, we better believe him. I'm not surprised it's not a big success with the Swedish audience - Ingmar Bergman usually wasn't either.

reply

SVT has yet again replied that they still have no info if there'll be a third season. It's quite obvious that a third season is being discussed, otherwise we'd had a "no" answer a long time ago.

Bron, SVT's other big international success, wasn't renewed for a third season until more than 6 months after the last episode of season 2. Now it's been more than 7 months since the last episode of season 2 of Äkta människor was broadcast; not a massive difference, especially as Bron is after all a much greater success (in terms of the amount of viewers, that is).

reply

Getting ever closer to being a year. Hope is running out. 

I don't mind the wait. Everything says discussions or some form of confirmation. It seems that they've given the okay, but since it's still being written they haven't given official dates. the author is also in works with Channel 4 for the U.K. remake, so they're probably both allowing him time for a quality product and for the remake release which could boost popularity and demand for the original product. There's more good in giving it time than rushing it.

Your analysis of the situation makes me hopeful again...

reply

This series is begging for a 3rd, 4th and possibly 5th seasons. It's there, waiting for the writers and producers to take it !

reply

It's good enough to get an American remake so why are they hesitating.

reply

Good question. Here's hoping the U.S. adaptation is worthy of the original. "Bron" was pretty solid as "The Bridge"

I couldn't care less about a UK remake. I just want a 3rd season from Sweden. Same actors and actresses, thanks. How can they leave us hanging like that? I never really understood the value of remakes. Generally, they are a disaster compared to originals.

reply

Generally, they are a disaster compared to originals.


generally they are done by americans, and generally entirety of american production is disastrous. British actually can make good TV

That said I'd rather have third season of swedish one
