Netflix Just Confirmed How Big A Mistake Mindhunter Season 3’s Cancellation Was, 4 Years Later

The state of a potential Mindhunter season 3 was up in the air for a few years until executive producer David Fincher revealed in 2023 that the television show had been canceled after two seasons. Four years after season 2, one film on Netflix proved that the streaming service made the wrong decision by letting Mindhunter end. The Netflix psychological crime thriller television series was based on the 1995 book Mindhunter: Inside the FBI’s Elite Serial Crime Unit by John E. Douglas and Mark Olshaker and revolved around two FBI agents and one psychologist who set out to study serial killers and understand their behavior and psychology to apply to unsolved cases.
