Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life debuted to a mixed response in 2016, so is there a chance it will return for a second season? Cooper Barett's Guide To Survive Life follows the trials and misadventures of the title character, played by Jack Cutmore-Scott (Dunkirk). The premise finds Cooper and his friends - including roommates Neal, Barry, and older brother Josh - trying to figure out what to do with their lives post-college.

The first episode of Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life spans four years, with the main story involving the group trying to track down their stolen TV. There's also a very Hangover-style kidnapping, a connection that's only made stronger thanks to the presence of Hangover co-star Justin Bartha as Josh. This FOX sitcom was looking to appeal to both younger viewers and 30-somethings, and the show featured Cooper pulling some Ferris Bueller Day's Off inspired fourth wall breaking. While the show had a talented cast, the execution was often scattered and it lacked any real originality.

The critical response was also lukewarm, so what are the odds of Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life season 2?

FOX pulled the plug on Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life in May 2016. Between the show's mixed reaction and modest ratings, the decision didn't come as a huge success. While the network originally pulled the last few episodes, they aired the remainder about a month later, so at least fans got to see the season completed.

No Networks Tried To Save Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life

While it's not uncommon for a popular canceled series to be rescued, like NBC saving Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or NBC reversing its own decision to cancel A.P. Bio and renew it for a third season, Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life wasn't so lucky. It appears no attempt was made to pick up the series on another network or platform, and the cast quickly moved on to other projects.

Jack Cutmore-Scott moved to ABC crime procedural Deception, while co-stars Justin Bartha landed a lead role on The Good Fight and Meaghan Rath has a recurring part on Hawaii Five-0. Considering it's been three years since the show ended, the odds of Cooper Barrett's Guide To Surviving Life season 2 happening are next to zero. While it had some fans the sitcom just didn't click with the majority of viewers, so there never enough of a call for the show to be saved.
