NBC Picks Up Supernatural Drama ‘Manifest’ for Season 3

NBC has announced it has picked up scripted supernatural drama “Manifest” for a fourth season. Debuting in September 2018, “Manifest” follows the lives of the survivors of Montego Air Flight 828, who discover that over five and a half years have passed while they were in the air, during which time they were presumed dead. As they reintegrate themselves into present-day society, the passengers begin to face the fact that their lives — and loved ones — are not the same as they were before, while they also begin to experience guiding voices and visions representing events yet to occur.

The network, which has yet to reveal its programming schedule for next fall, has also announced it has officially canceled sitcoms “Indebted” and “Sunnyside,” and legal drama “Bluff City Law.” “Indebted,” starring Fran Drescher, was a midseason replacement, while both “Sunnyside” and “Bluff City Law” were brief fall 2019 entries. No decision has been made on current drama “Council of Dads.”
