Prime Video officially cancels The Peripheral season 2 just six months after initially picking up the sci-fi show for more due to the recent strikes. Despite garnering strong reviews in its debut outing, Prime Video has cancelled The Peripheral season 2. Loosely based on William Gibson's novel of the same name, the sci-fi show centered on a young woman presented with a seemingly new form of virtual reality, only to learn of its dangerous ties to reality and putting her and her family in danger. #savetheperipheral #theperipheral
