Catfish Season 1 Finale Leaves Fans Questioning Future of Chad Powers
LOS ANGELES, CA — Fans are buzzing after the Season 1 finale of “Chad Powers” aired, leaving several questions about the show’s future. The finale, which premiered on September 21, wrapped up the season with a mix of comedy and drama centered around Russ Holliday, played by Glen Powell, and his alter ego, Chad Powers.
In the last episode, viewers witnessed a major revelation as Ricky, portrayed by Perry Mattfeld, discovers Russ’s secret identity. This twist adds tension to their budding relationship, and fans are wondering if they can overcome this obstacle.
As the South Georgia Catfish took to the field for a critical game, Coach Hudson, played by Steve Zahn, and the rest of the team were oblivious to Russ’s true identity. The outcome of the game and the fallout from Russ’s secret unfolded in dramatic fashion. However, those tuning in for new episodes on November 3 or 4 were disappointed, as Season 1 consisted of only six episodes, ending with the Season 1 finale.
Despite the lack of renewal news from Hulu as of October 27, co-creator Michael Waldron expressed hope for a second season. He noted that he and Powell have ideas for multiple seasons, with brainstorming for season 2 reportedly underway. “We always intended to have a cliffhanger,” Waldron said, indicating the potential for further storytelling.
Waldron also promised fans that if given the green light, they would strive to ensure a timely release. “We want to make it on time, on schedule,” he said, emphasizing their commitment to fans not to make them wait long for new content.
As the curtain closed on Season 1, many are left speculating about the repercussions of Russ’s secret being exposed, how Coach Hudson would react to the truth, and if the South Georgia Catfish can continue their journey as a team without falling apart.
For now, Season 1 of “Chad Powers” is streaming on Hulu, where fans can catch up on the series while they await potential updates on its future.
