Syfy picks up Happy! for a second season
It looks like Syfy is having a good time with Christopher Meloni’s mad quest for crazy justice alongside his imaginary friend Patton Oswalt the unicorn, as the network has renewed Happy! for a second season just ahead of its first season finale later this week. This comes from Deadline, which says the show has been a “breakout hit” for Syfy and that it broke the network’s record for most-watch series premiere—though the previous record-holder was The Magicians, which just premiered in 2016. Happy!’s premiere got 1.7 million viewers, with 779,000 of them coming in the all-important 18-49 demographic.
