Will 'LEGO Masters' Get a Season 3? The Show's Fate Still Hangs in the Balance
Published July 27 2021, 1:26 p.m. ET
During its first season, Fox’s LEGO Masters was a complete hit. In fact, it ended up being the No. 1 new show for the network. The creative and competitive reality show is back for a Season 2 with incredible LEGO landscapes, mind-bending challenges, and even LEGO fashion.
Though the second season of LEGO Masters is just getting underway, fans are already wondering why the show hasn’t been promised more seasons. Did the show get canceled? We have all the details on LEGO Masters' fate below!
'LEGO Masters’ Season 2 premiered June 2021.
After a hit first season, LEGO Masters was renewed for another season. The unique reality TV competition show, hosted by Will Arnett, features teams of two building different kinds of very intricate and immersive LEGO projects, from entire theme parks to reconstructed scenes from fairy tales, with some crazy twists along the way. The best creation wins based on the judges’ opinions.
“LEGO Masters raised the bar for all competition series, wowing fans with its wildly creative builds,” said Rob Wade, president of alternative entertainment and specials at Fox, in 2020 (per The Hollywood Reporter). “Add to that our insanely dynamic host, Will Arnett, and it’s just a great hour of family-friendly fun. We can’t wait to see this new batch of Lego contestants attempt to master season two’s even bigger and better challenges, brick by brick.”
‘LEGO Masters’ Season 3 will premiere in fall 2022.
Season 3 of LEGO Masters was originally supposed to premiere on May 31, 2022, but the released was pushed back to the fall. A new premiere date has not yet been announced.
It seems that Season 2 of LEGO Masters didn't get the viewership that its first season did. “Compared to season one, [ratings are] down by 56 percent in the [18-49] demo and down by 53 percent in viewership in the live+same day ratings ... While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel,” the outlet explained.
Fans of the show will be disappointed if/when the show is not picked up again.
There is no question that LEGO has a cult following of people young and old who enjoy playing with the legendary toy. So, when LEGO Masters came onto the scene, fans couldn’t hold in their excitement. “LEGO Masters is the best show on TV right now. Fight me,” one fan wrote online.
