‘Heels’ Showrunner Mike O’Malley Talks Future Of Wrestling Drama, Stephen Amell’s Strike Comments: “He Had Incredible Pride In The Show”

Heels showrunner Mike O’Malley has weighed in on strike comments made in July by Stephen Amell, who called the SAG-AFTRA strike “myopic,” “incredibly frustrating” and a “reductive negotiating…

There is no way this and Winning Time can be continued on other networks since I'm a fan of both. They will talk about it for a while but slowly you will hear nothing more about it. Wish we could at least get a 2 hour movie though with Heels to close out the storyline.

Mike O’Malley recently weighed in on the decision to shop Heels to other networks following the show’s cancellation. O’Malley — who is the showrunner for the wrestling drama — revealed that they’re seeking a new home after it was canceled by Starz. O’Malley was on Busted Open Radio, and you can see some highlights below:

On his plan to shop the show elsewhere: “We want to save Heels and we want it to go on someplace else. If there is an opportunity for Heels to go on in the future on another platform … we would want that support to save Heels. We were bummed out when we found out Heels was canceled on Starz. We worked really hard on it, but this is what happens in show business a lot of times”

On his goal with the show: “Heels was a show about taking a look behind the curtain at people who love wrestling and want to devote their life to it. We want to examine some of the reasons why people do it and some of the cost and the rewards of those things.”

Hope for 'Heels'? Canceled Wrestling Drama Licensed to Netflix (Exclusive)

Hope for ‘Heels’? Canceled Wrestling Drama Licensed to Netflix (Exclusive)

The streaming giant hasn’t renewed the series — but there’s a (complicated) chance it could.

t.co

Sources also note that while Netflix has not renewed the series, the streamer could wind up doing so should Heels perform well on the platform. Those same sources also caution that a third season, even in success, could still be a logistical challenge. Amell — a diehard wrestling fan who often would perform his own stunts on Heels — signed on in February as the lead in NBC’s highly anticipated spinoff of Suits.

Interesting. I still need to watch season 2. It's actually been in my queue, but I know they cancelled in it.

 

[SteelCitySoldier]

I hope they gets this shyt soon because you can’t watch it anywhere and I didn’t watch the second season.

With that being said I feel like Netflix wants to do the third season and that’s why it disappeared off of Starz so quick when it wrapped up the second season. They gonna drop this shyt and see what type of numbers it’s going to do and then decide if they’re going to go all in on season 3

 

[EzekelRAGE]

Hopefully with Netflix getting WWE/Raw next year they take heels and make it mirror the WWE shyt like it shoudlve been at start. I been said this shouldve been to WWE/McMahons what Succession was to Fox/Rudolph family.

Damn I hope they have the other two seasons on there

 

[Instant Classic]

Wow, I had no clue Netflix picked it up. The show improved a lot with S2, and it's nice that we can now binge the series. Hopefully with Netflix people give it a chance due to Netflix having a large audience

‘Heels’ finally has a drop date on Netflix. Both seasons of the Mike O’Malley drama about the world of small-town pro wrestling will premiere on the streamer Sunday, September 15
