\n\tJensen Ackles is sharing his reaction to the news that Countdown<\/em> was not renewed at Amazon\u2019s\u00a0Prime Video for a second season.<\/p>\n \n\tThe crime thriller debuted its first season in June before wrapping up its 13 episodes in early September following a weekly rollout. The series followed LAPD officer Mark Meachum (played by Ackles), who joins a secret task force to investigate a suspicious murder, but uncovers a sinister plot that requires the team to unite and save millions in the city.<\/p>\n \n\tOn Friday, Prime Video announced it would not be renewing Countdown<\/em>, despite it spending a short time on Nielsen\u2019s top 10 U.S. streaming charts over the summer.<\/p>\n \n\tAckles took to his Instagram to share his thoughts, saying, \u201cAs some of you may have seen already,\u00a0Countdown<\/em>\u00a0did not get picked up for another season. Amazon\u2019s gonna let it go, and it\u2019s a bummer because I had such an amazing time making that show. Had an absolute blast with the cast and the crew.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tThe Supernatural<\/em>\u00a0alum went on to express his appreciation for creator Derek Haas and the show\u2019s writers, as well as Amazon \u201cfor giving us the opportunity\u201d to make the series.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cSometimes you can set out to do your best and check all those boxes, and ultimately it\u2019s out of your hands. That\u2019s the way it goes in this industry,\u201d Ackles added before concluding, \u201cThat\u2019s the end for Mark Meachum. \u2026 But I\u2019m thankful for the experience. We\u2019ll see you down the road on something else, I guess.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tCountdown<\/em> also starred Jessica Camacho, Eric Dane, Violett Beane, Elliot Knight, Uli Latukefu, Rachel Armstrong and Bogdan Yasinski.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Jensen Ackles is sharing his reaction to the news that Countdown was not renewed at Amazon\u2019s\u00a0Prime Video for a second season.
