NBC has decided not to move forward with a third season for The Hunting Party, ending the run after just two seasons.

The Hunting Party stood as the last remaining network scripted show without a renewal decision, and sources say Universal Television is now looking to move it elsewhere, as per The Hollywood Reporter.

Airing its final episode on May 7, the crime drama followed Melissa Roxburgh as ex-FBI profiler Rebecca “Bex” Henderson, who heads a team hunting down deadly escaped prisoners from a covert facility called “The Pit,” per the official logline.

“But as Bex races to catch these killers before it’s too late, she’ll discover that the one thing more twisted than the dangerous fugitives she’s chasing is the prison itself that they just escaped from… because ‘The Pit’ wasn’t just a prison,” the synopsis continued.

Joining the Manifest star Melissa on the thriller mystery series created by JJ Bailey, were Nick Wechsler, Patrick Sabongui, Josh McKenzie and Sara Garcia.

JJ Bailey also served as co-showrunner with Jake Coburn.
