Episodes:
Mind hunter is an American television series that has had two seasons. Its first season premiered on October 13, 2017, and had 10 episodes while its second season premiered on August 16, 2019, and had 9 episodes.
Will there be a season 3?
Although Mind Hunter was received with a lot of warmth after its release, gradually its viewers decreased as it approached its second season and hence the show’s third season seems to be a far-fetched dream. The costs of its production cannot be met with the remuneration it has been generating and therefore there are rumors that the makers of the show have decided to drop the idea of renewing it for a third installment.
