Freeform president Tom Ascheim interrupted the TCA panel for "Beyond" to announce that the Tim Kring-executive produced sci-fi show is getting a second season. The series premiered on Jan. 2 to promising ratings, drawing 1.3 million total viewers and 553,000 adults 18-49 in Live+3.

“It’s a courageous thing to pick up a series this early, but audiences notice these things early,” said Kring. “It can help build momentum for a show when they learn there’s a commitment to the show.”



In "Beyond", Burkley Duffield stars as Holden Matthews who awakes from a 12-year coma and learns he has new abilities which propel in the middle of a conspiracy. Now Holden must try and figure out what happened to him during those 12 years; how to survive a world that changed while he was gone; and answer the question, why did this happen to him?

Romy Rosemont, Michael McGrady, Jonathan Whitesell, Dilan Gwyn and Jeff Pierre also star.
