Underground

Underground is a newest American history-related drama series that follows an audacious slave runaway from a plantation by the Underground Railroad. The original series came out in March 2016 and produced quite a buzz among critics and viewers.

Noah and Rosalee, two daring Georgia slaves, lead a group of abolitionists who have to find the courage and cross 600 miles to find freedom. The people escape from their old way of life and are ready to do anything to become free. But their way is obstacled with all possible difficulties, including butcherly slave hunters.

The initial chapter of the period drama and thriller slave series debuted with viewership number, exceptional for the broadcasting network WGN, attracting more than 2.3 million viewers, which is a 10 times the WGN’s primetime usual viewership count. The 10-part chapter continued well overall, with about 3 million viewers per episode.

Very soon after Underground premiered, the producers decided to renew it for another chapter, which is supposed to hit the small screen in 2017. The series is gaining huge popularity throughout the world, and even more fans are going to be attracted by Underground with its next installment.
