'Manifest' finale review: Episode 16 is confirmation the NBC show will have a 2nd season

After all this while, it has been revealed the "Callings" are leading them to their deaths, but is there another intention?
PUBLISHED FEB 20, 2019

The 'Manifest' finale left us with even more questions than answers for our already lingering previous doubts. Created by Jeff Rake, the show in its 16-episode-long run, managed to break a number of records for NBC, but sadly, like all things, this too had to come to an end. However, quite expectedly, the show has not given out any answers about the mystery of Montego Air Flight 828 which means we can safely expect a Season2. 

During an exclusive interview with MEA WorldWide (MEAWW), Rake repeatedly indicated the probability of a second season. The finale episode, titled 'Estimated Time of Departure', left us with probably a hundred questions but there was a revelation, which not only added a new clue to the show but actually changed its entire course. Turns out the passengers have barely five more years to live.
