Okay, let's get straight to the point, because who has time for fluff these days? We're all here for one burning question: When is more Animal Kingdom coming our way?! The Cody boys have a grip on our attention, and we're desperate for our next fix.
The Bad News (Let's Rip Off the Band-Aid)
Brace yourselves, my fellow Animal Kingdom fanatics. I have some news that might sting a little. Are you ready? Here it is: The show ended after its sixth season. Yep, that was it. No more.
I know, I know. It's like finding out your favorite ice cream shop closed down. It's a tragedy of epic proportions. I feel your pain. We all do.
But Don't Despair Just Yet!
Okay, so the original series is done and dusted, finito. But does that really mean we're saying goodbye to the Cody family forever? Hold on to your surfboards, people, because hope might be on the horizon!
There's been talk. Whispers in the wind. Rumors swirling faster than Pope on a jetski. The possibility of spinoffs and prequels are being looked at! This is great news.
The Future of the Codys (Maybe!)
Let's put it this way: networks and streaming services love money. And what makes money? Shows with built-in fanbases! And trust me, Animal Kingdom has more loyal fans than there are grains of sand on Oceanside beach.
So, what could a spinoff or prequel look like? Maybe a deep dive into Smurf's backstory. Imagine a young, ruthless Janine Cody carving her way through the criminal underworld of 1970s California. Now that's a show I'd binge-watch. Think *'70s Smurf* meets *The Godfather*.
Or maybe we could follow one of the Cody boys who managed to (sort of) get away. What happens to Pope after all of that? Does Deran ever find his way back to Adrian? The possibilities are endless!
What Can *You* Do?
If you're as desperate as I am for more Cody action, there are things you can do! And I'm not talking about breaking into a TV studio (though the thought has crossed my mind… just kidding… mostly).
The best thing to do? Make your voices heard! Tweet about it. Post on Facebook. Start a petition (they actually work sometimes!). Let the powers that be know that the world needs more Animal Kingdom. Because the louder we scream, the better our chances!
Until then, we can always rewatch the original series. I know I will. Reliving all of the heists, the family drama, and the beautiful, sun-drenched California scenery. And let’s be honest, rewatching Animal Kingdom is hardly a punishment.
"Family. Loyalty. Code." - Someone from Animal Kingdom (probably)
So, while we don't have a definite answer on when the new Animal Kingdom is coming out, stay hopeful and stay loud! If we all band together like the Codys (well, maybe not exactly like the Codys), we might just get our wish! Let's do our best to get the Cody family back on screen.
