Q-Force has not been renewed for a second season. Helmed by stand-up comedian and writer Gabe Liedman, the animated action/comedy stars Will & Grace’s Sean Hayes as Agent Maryweather, a spy who – after coming out as gay during his American Intelligence Agency (AIA) graduation ceremony – is relocated and stationed in West Hollywood.
There, he tries to hold his unlikely team of LGBTQ+ ass-kicking misfits together – including mechanic and driver Deb (Wanda Sykes), disguise artist Twink (Matt Rogers) and expert hacker Stat (Patti Harrison) – before embarking on dangerous missions that could save the world, while proving that LGBTQ+ agents are just as effective as their heterosexual counterparts in the process.
The supporting cast also includes Gary Cole, David Harbour, Laurie Metcalf and Stephanie Beatriz. On a recent episode of the Attitudes!
podcast, Rogers confirmed that Q-Force has been cancelled. “The people who loved it, really loved it. The good news is that it will always be on Netflix,” he said. “It did not get a second season but, I feel like the fact is that it is out there, and… it’s really close to my heart.” Following its premiere in 2021, Q-Force was met with harsh reviews from critics for conforming to queer stereotypes, only managing a 23% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
