"If it didn't do that, then it would be cool to have the Unabomber in the rear view and be able to just look back to it. "I think there is an opportunity to have another Manhunt that intersects at that time, which would be cool," he says.

These other '90s stories have already been popular for true crime series today, and Yaitanes is interested in exploring that as well. You know, Fitz also worked on that as well." In 1995, new FBI profiler Jim Fitzgerald is asked to join the task force charged with identifying and arresting the terrorist known as the Unabomber. "Cameras were coming into the courtroom for the first time, the nation was gripped by the JonBenét mystery. Faced with few clues and an increasingly panicked public, the FBI calls on a new kind of profiler to help track down the infamous Unabomber. You have Waco, you have Oklahoma, you have Menendez, you have OJ," he says.
"The '90s were a very interconnected time. The time period in which the Unabomber investigation was at his peak is of particular interest to him, especially when it pertains to other notable true crime stories. "Discovery is rightfully and methodically waiting to see what the overall experience was and what it did," he says.Īnd, though Yaitenes says he doesn't yet know if the show will return, he has some plans for it if it does. The four-part ITV crime drama is based on another case investigated by DCI Colin Sutton. Yaitanes says the lack of official announcement just now is because it's too soon (the finale hasn't even aired yet). Manhunt series 2 viewers have praised star Martin Clunes for an incredible performance in the lead role. They're invested in the work, they're invested in the characters." So, these fans shouldn't worry too much. This is not the type of show that I would think people would be tweeting along to, but they're invested. And, the fan base is certainly there, with many of them tweeting along with episodes, which Yaitanes says is "thrilling." He adds, "I'm surprised actually by the social presence. Though there has been no official announcement or plans for a second run, Yaitanes is on board for another season (and possibly more than that) if Discovery gives the go-ahead. So, will Manhunt: Unabomber return for Season 2 on Discovery? In a phone interview with showrunner and executive producer Greg Yaitanes, he reveals to Bustle what fans can expect for the future of the series. The debut season of Discovery's limited true crime series, Manhunt: Unabomber is coming to a thrilling conclusion, but, after such an intense season, fans are likely to be invested even after the credits roll.
