Falling Water is an American supernatural drama television series. A commercial-free advance preview of the pilot aired on September 21, 2016 ahead of its October 13, 2016 premiere.[1][2] On April 3, 2017 USA Network renewed the series for a second season, with Rémi Aubuchon replacing Blake Masters as the showrunner.[3] On May 18, 2018, USA announced they had cancelled the series.[4]
