ABC’s American Crime just debuted its third season in March, and though it hasn’t been renewed for a fourth, EP Michael J. McDonald hinted at the next topical venture. “There is a story that we want to tell,” he said. “Seeing what’s happening on Fox News and what’s happening with Uber, you’re seeing the role that women play in the workforce,” he shared, possibly teasing the topic of sexual harassment.
“Unfortunately with broadcast television it’s very hard to get an audience– our audience may not be there right now,” he said. Added Huffman: “If there isn’t a Season 4, I’m so honored that this is our last season. I think ABC has changed the face of network TV and what network TV can do. … They are beyond what cable can do. Sometimes those things have a short shelf life, but the ripple effect is great.”
