Stumptown is a crime-drama television series on ABC. The show is based on the comic-book series of the same name, which is created by Greg Rucka, Matthew Southworth and Justin Greenwood. Jason Richman developed the series for television, and it premiered on ABC on September 25, 2019. In the following month, in October, Stumptown was ordered for a full first season. Stumptown is based in the city of Portland, Oregon, and derives its name from the nickname of the city. Read on to find out about the current status of season 2 of Stumptown.
The official website of the show describes its premise as-
“Stumptown follows Dex Parios–a strong, assertive and sharp-witted veteran with a complicated love life, gambling debt and a brother to take care of in Portland, Oregon. Her military intelligence skills make her a great PI, but her unapologetic style puts her in the firing line of hardcore criminals and not quite in alliance with the police.”
The series stars Cobie Smulders as Dex Parios, Jake Johnson as Grey McConnell, Tantoo Cardinal as Sue Lynn Blackbird, Cole Sibus as Ansel Parios, Adrian Martinez as Tookie with Camryn Manheim as Lieutenant Cosgrove and Michael Ealy as Detective Miles Hoffman.

Stumptown Season 2 – Is it happening? Recent Updates
Stumptown was renewed for a second season in May, 2020. The series was part of the fall 2020 schedule that ABC had announced in June. However, production delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic meant that new episodes could not have been ready before schedule, and would only be possible by April of next year. Due to this reason, ABC cancelled the series in September 2020.

However, the studio behind the series, ABC Signature, are hoping that the series will get picked up by some other network. Stumptown had a good first season, and developed quite a lot of fan following after its first season only. The fans had also started a #SaveStumptown campaign on Twitter, in support for the show. It only remains to be seen whether Stumptown will be picked up by another network or a streaming platform or not.
