Luckily for us, Ayers is down for more seasons. Ideally, what we really want is for people to stop and think about the nature of their interactions." One of the virtues of that format is that you really get into the lives of the particular characters that each episode is about. "The main thing we wanted was to engage people with a roller coaster ride that also had some kind of emotional effect. Though Clickbait may seem like a classic Netflix thriller, creator Tony Ayers designed it as a murder mystery focused on cybercrime, or "the new categories of crime that have sprung up since the internet has taken over our lives." He also told Entertainment Weekly that the show's creative team decided to base the show on real crimes that had actually happened.Īyers also said that the changing perspectives and character dives of each episode are integral to the series. What have the cast and crew said about Season 2? I want to see what they can do with a new mystery. However, I will also accept the writing team behind the series just getting another Netflix series. I was genuinely shocked at the end, and to me, that makes Clickbait one of the best shows to binge watch on Netflix, and it makes it a show that I really want to see return. One thing Clickbait did really well was flushing out all major and minor characters enough for us to care about them.Ĭlickbait is one of those rare Netflix TV shows where I didn’t figure out the twist. ![]() ![]() We didn’t get enough material to know their full stories, and see if there was more to them, like there was to the Nick mystery, than it seemed.Įven learning more about the vlogger girl who posted Nick’s abduction, Vince (Jack Walton), or Simon (Daniel Henshall) could work as stories for a possible Clickbait Season 2. We got a sense of who Ben, Matt, Allison, and Emma were, with some glimpses of their lives and history, but we only got just enough to form an impression of them. Then there were characters like the reporter, Ben (Abraham Lim), the shady Matt (Ian Meadows), and even Ethan’s online friend Alison (Jillian Nguyen), who all played a part in the major mystery but didn’t really get their story told. She had a ton of layers that could be entertaining to explore in a season devoted to her. Nick’s not-so mistress Emma (Jessica Collins) wasn’t very likable, but she was quite interesting. The Clickbait team would just have to figure out how to keep this Netflix series unique, interesting, and captivating for multiple seasons.Ĭlickbait Season 2 Could Follow A Mystery Involving A Minor Character From Season 1Ĭlickbait introduced many interesting minor characters. The concept of clickbait, and viral events and crimes, leaves a lot of room for possible exploration and different interpretations of it. Other times, it could be of someone who will die if not found, and the mystery involves locating them before it's too late (similar to Nick, but this time they’re found). Maybe another time, the viewers see the criminal and the mystery is finding out who he or she is and why they committed this crime. Maybe it’s a video of someone who faked their death. She could appear on every episode and introduce a new video, but the nature of the crime could vary. The linking factor could be that vlogger who originally linked to Nick’s video. Clickbait could also easily just become an anthology series of fictional viral murders. The name is already generic enough that it could easily plug and play many different stories that could be considered clickbait, everything from viral crimes to staged events. Clickbait Season 2 Could Turn The Series Into An Anthology Series About Viral MurdersĬlickbait could very much work as an anthology series. ![]()
