The petition to Save Bosch: Legacy has gathered more than 20,000 signatures just four months after Amazon decided to cancel the series. While the real reasons behind the show’s cancellation before its third season have come to light, the campaign has faced challenges due to the cast’s lack of communication.
Michael Connelly expressed his appreciation for the petition and mentioned feeling “very flattered” by the fans’ support. However, he noted that there hasn’t been significant participation from the cast of the crime spin-off series. This isn’t a criticism of them, as there are various factors involved; the Ballard spin-off still works with many of the same team members, which limits their ability to comment. With the third and final season of Bosch: Legacy nearing its release, it would be great to see some engagement from the cast.
The Save Bosch: Legacy Petition Really Needs The Cast And Crew To Be Vocal In The Lead Up To The Release Of Season 3

The Save Bosch: Legacy petition has garnered the backing of more than 20,000 fans worldwide, all coming together for a shared purpose: to allow the creative team to conclude the story in a fitting manner. However, there’s a significant issue at hand: the cast and crew have not publicly supported the petition. Michael Connelly mentioned the petition in an interview with The Irish Star in October 2024, but his current commitments with Amazon regarding the Ballard spin-off limited his ability to fully endorse it.
As the promotional tour for the final season of Bosch: Legacy kicks off, it’s likely that the cast will face inquiries regarding the petition. It would be wonderful if they chose to address it openly. For a petition to succeed, it often requires the support of the creative team, and Bosch: Legacy is no different. Take, for instance, the case of Daredevil, which was canceled in 2018. A petition on change.org gained traction, and the cast rallied behind it, leading to the creation of Daredevil: Born Again, set to premiere on Disney+ in March 2025. The Bosch: Legacy cast and crew have the opportunity to back the petition while also championing the Ballard spin-off. Yet, their continued silence raises questions about what might be happening behind the scenes at Amazon and whether there are efforts to keep the Bosch: Legacy team from discussing the petition.

The Lack Of Support From The Bosch: Legacy Cast Just Fuels The Notion That Amazon Are Trying To Silence Them
When the Bosch series came to a close in 2021, fans felt there was still more to uncover in Harry Bosch’s story, leading them to start a petition to bring the show back. With over 10,000 signatures, they successfully convinced Amazon to launch the spin-off, Bosch: Legacy, in 2022. The cast was eager to continue the journey, wanting to share more engaging stories. However, after Amazon canceled Bosch: Legacy, fans mobilized again, and even though they gathered double the signatures this time, Amazon has yet to change its stance. If the Bosch: Legacy cast were to support this new petition, it could significantly boost the number of signatures and improve the chances for another season. The
If the Bosch: Legacy cast rallies behind this petition, it will surely attract more signatures and increase the likelihood of another season.
The extended silence is only intensifying the speculation about a potential cover-up by Amazon, leading to the belief that the cast might have been made to sign non-disclosure agreements regarding the cancellation of Bosch: Legacy. If this is indeed the situation, it’s deeply troubling. The Hollywood landscape has been unstable for quite some time, struggling to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and the recent strikes by actors and writers. This likely placed the Bosch: Legacy team in a challenging predicament. While the cast is eager to support the Save Bosch: Legacy petition, they also have to think about their job prospects. Amazon appears to think they are untouchable, but that shouldn’t be the case. It would be refreshing if someone from the Bosch: Legacy cast could speak out and challenge Amazon, or even better, if they all stood together—what would Amazon do then? Dismiss them all?
