Hightown

Hightown is a traditional American criminal drama series with a unique twist. Rebecca Cutter, Gary Lennon, Jerry Bruckheimer (Top Gun Maverick), and Johnathan Littman conceived and produced the series. Starz TV’s inaugural season was an instant hit, with the series breaking audience records across many digital platforms. The series revolves around the drug war, drug use, and addiction, all of which are intermingled with a murder mystery case. The first and second seasons do an excellent job of introducing the narrative story, and viewers can’t help but wonder whether there will be a third season.

Monica Raymund (Jackie Quinones), Dohn Norwood (Alan Saintille), and James Badge Dale (Ray Abruzzo) are anticipated to return for the third season if the show is renewed. Jean-Louis (Frankie Jr.) is all expected to return.

Due to the onscreen character’s death in season 1, Shane Harper (Junior) may appear in flashback scenes. Only if flashback sequences involve their respective characters, Jorge Cuevas and Daisy, will Luis Guzmán and Jona Xiao reprise their roles. If the third season is approved, we might expect to see some new faces.

What’s the Story Behind This TV Show?

Monica Raymund, James Badge Dale, Riley Voelkel, Amaury Nolasco, Atkins Estimond, and Dohn Norwood star in the Starz cable show Hightown. Luis Guzmán, Jona Xiao, Carlos Gómez, Mark Boone Junior, Cecil Blutcher, and Crystal Lee Brown are among the second season’s visitors, as are Tonya Glanz and Imani Lewis. Jackie Quinones (Raymund) has realized her dream of becoming a real cop in the second season and is out to make the world a better place. Jackie is quickly thrown into the fatal carfentanyl crime wave that is sweeping Cape Cod, and she is dead set on bringing down drug dealer Frankie Cuevas (Nolasco), the guy she believes is responsible for the killing of her closest friend, Junior.

When Frankie’s cousin Jorge (Guzmán) joins his organization, he brings a whole new level of violence and chaos to the table. Jackie meets a new partner in Leslie (Glanz), the only other female cop on the team, after disgraced officer Ray Abruzzo (Dale) is fired and depressed. Jackie must maintain her sobriety while attempting to stay afloat in a sea of secrets, treachery, and the shame and failure of her past.

How Season 2 of Hightown leaves the door open for a third season

The second season of Hightown introduces a new status quo, reversing the situation from the first season’s finale. Jackie Quinones, played by Monica Raymund, is eager to emerge from the cloud of drunkenness and get down to business on the series’ central murder investigation. Abruzzo, on the other hand, is falling in the other way.

This essential dynamic, according to TV Line, will define the season. With Abruzzo no longer on the force, he’s been relegated to a role akin to Quiones’ in the first season. It demonstrates a willingness to retool the show while also laying the groundwork for future big story points years down the road. Following Abruzzo’s ostensibly stellar performance at a reinstatement hearing in the pilot, it’s evident that Hightown is eager to pursue story elements through to their logical conclusion.

Ratings for Season Two

Hightown’s second season has a 0.04 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 203,000 viewers in live+same day ratings (includes all DVR playback through 3:00 AM). In the live+same day ratings, this is up 26% in the demo and down 14% in viewership when compared to season one (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these figures do not account for additional delayed or streamed viewing, they are a decent estimate of how well a show is doing, especially when compared to other shows on the same channel. Despite other economic variables, higher-rated programs are more likely to be renewed, whereas lower-rated shows are more likely to be canceled. Compare Hightown to other Starz TV programs to see how it compares.

Release Date for Season 3 of Hightown

The second season of ‘Hightown’ premiered on Starz on October 17, 2021, and ended on December 26, 2021. The second season of the show consists of ten episodes, each lasting 54–59 minutes.

Here’s what we can tell you about the show’s third edition. Starz has yet to issue an official announcement announcing the third season of ‘Hightown.’ However, another wave is very likely to be approved sooner rather than later. Ray Abruzzo’s actor, James Badge Dale, revealed in an interview in October 2021 that the show’s storyline extends beyond the second season.

After working as a team in the first two rounds, Dale indicated his desire to work with the crew for a potential third season. As a result, we can only hope that the network will order another shipment shortly. Season 3 of ‘Hightown’ is set to premiere in Q4 2022 if the show gets renewed by early 2022.

Season 3 of Hightown What will happen in the plot?

The show revolves around Jackie Quinones, a National Marine Officer who enjoys liquor, drugs, and wild parties. Krista, Sherry’s best friend and a recovering addict, was present when she was murdered. Following then, the program follows the standard investigation and crime thriller formula. Jackie seeks sobriety as a result of the trauma of these events. With the help of Ray Abruzzo of the Interagency Narcotics Unit, they realize that solving the murder mystery will be difficult and time-consuming.

Hightown is presently available to watch online.

The current prestige television boom is dominated by crime dramas. Hightown is available on Starz and Hulu with the Starz add-on. Starz, which built its name in original programming by creating a wide range of genre shows, doesn’t rely on them as much as other networks. Outlander, American Gods, and The White Queen are examples of dramas that defy neat categorization.

Power, the crime drama that now draws the most viewers to the Starz network, changed that. That show turned into a multi-series powerhouse after a sluggish start. Curtis ’50 Cent’ Jackson, the executive producer of Power, has recently gone on to a new project with BMF, which stands for Black Mafia Family. In a way that almost no other network can match, Power is appointment viewing. Hightown and BMF are examples of how Starz may diversify its crime drama lineup rather than depending on a single blockbuster brand. It’s an intriguing shift, and with the conclusion of the Outlander book series implying the end of the other Starz mainstay, it may have to pay off sooner rather than later.

What occurs at the end of Hightown Season 2?

In the midst of all of this, Jackie relapses, drinking once more and falling into a deep melancholy. When she calls Ray for assistance, he merely advises her to go inside and assures her that everything will work out. Jackie returns to her father’s drug dealer, where she is invited to take narcotics… and probably more, as her life spirals out of control. Alan gets a call from Boston PD later that night. They’ve acquired information about Jamaican cleaning ladies burying a body – Jorge Cuevas’ body. Alan immediately goes to work obtaining information because the individual engaged in the incident works at Bayside Cleaners.

Is Frankie dead?

Vernon enters Frankie’s wing with an improvised shiv as this is going on. Before being hauled away, he stabs the man many times, leaving him a bloody mess on the floor. Does he, on the other hand, make it? The blows on Frankie’s kidney and/or liver don’t appear to be lethal, and authorities arrived on the scene shortly to break things up. While it ends on an unclear note (as do most of the season’s storylines), it suggests that Frankie is still alive. When Vernon texts Osito and says, “It’s done,” Osito thinks he’s out of the woods. I don’t believe he’s dead, and if Starz renews the show for a third season, I expect him to return with a fury.

What becomes of Charmaine?

We catch up with Charmaine late in the game when she gets away in the woods, traveling and slipping away from the Cape. Since Aileen’s death, she’s yearned for a fresh start, and it appears she’s finally gotten it. If the show is renewed, it’s unlikely that we’ll see her again.

Review of the Episode

Wasn’t that a bad way to end the season? Nothing is resolved, there are no ramifications for any of our characters, and everything is left open for a possible third season. It’s unclear whether or not this one will be revived — especially at the time of writing this recap. Ray is back as a sergeant, and Alan’s future is in jeopardy. At the same time, Jackie’s hearing, Renee’s possible arrest, Frankie’s health, and Osito and Charmaine’s futures are all left open and unresolved.

But the most irritating aspect of it all is Jackie’s relapse… yet again. It casts a pall over the whole situation, especially given how well she’s been performing. The second season of Hightown is an improvement over the first, although it still has some of the same problems, particularly with its characters. Jackie is a difficult heroine to root for, especially because she continues pushing people away, and the supporting characters, such as Ray and Renee, are difficult to warm up to. In reality, Alan is the most charming character in the story, yet he has the most unfortunate fate!

Many questions remain unresolved at the end of the season, which is a frustrating way to end an otherwise excellent drama season.
