Season 1 of MTV-backed 'Families of The Mafia' came to an end and it left the viewers with one too many cliffhangers. And now, fans have demanded a Season 2 and listed names of cast members they'd want to return with it. 

Unfortunately, the castmate who is definitely not returning regardless of whether there's going to be another season is - Billy O'Toole. During the filming, he tragically passed away in his home; the cause of death is still unknown. It was a shocker to Billy's family but they held up well. Ex-wife Jess Clare and kids Joe and Taylor looked at the positive and shared how they'd want to remember him for his love and the support he lent to them through and through.

The O'Tooles weren't the only family struggling emotionally. Since the beginning of the season, Dennie Augustine has been contemplating getting in touch with her biological father, who had abandoned her and her mother, Lisa, years ago. That feeling of emptiness kept haunting her until the day she finally decided to face it. In order to deal with it, she got in touch with her father over a phone call that didn't end well. He was spiteful and seemed as though he didn't want anything to do with his daughter. And that left Dennie devastated. She was in tears but she had Lisa by her side to comfort her. 

Meanwhile, Karina Seabrook and Karen Gravano went to Arizona to meet Sammy Gravano. Karen considers  Sammy as a guide and a mentor. Given the situation in Karina's life, Karen thought it would help if they sought Sammy's advice. She shared how Paulie Fusco, Karina's boyfriend, has been abusive toward her and revealed how during their recent trip to the Poconos Mountains, he even raised his hand on her. 

Karina defended Paulie but Sammy interrupted to make a point. He said that maybe the boy was messing with her mentally and not so much physically. And to cement his thought, Sammy shared how in the many years that he has been together with his wife, he never raised his hand on her and that is what a man should be doing. Karina appreciated his two cents but also let both Karen and Sammy know that the final call would always be hers.

Meanwhile, fans have demanded a Season 2. 

"Your so strong @dennieaugustine I mean it. I'm proud of @TaylorOtoole4 and her brother for having a relationship with their father. Please say season 2. #familiesofthemafia," a fan commented, while another shared: "#familiesofthemafia is littttt. Need season 2."

"If there’s no season 2 of #FamiliesofTheMafia & i don’t get to see my faves @dennieaugustine and @karinaseabrook i will literally punch someone lmao," a user posted.

"If there is a season 2 of this show, don’t bring Paulie back. Thanks @MTV @familiesofmafia #familiesofthemafia," another tweeted.
