The show ran for two seasons and proved to be immensely popular amongst fans and critics, with the show currently holding a near-perfect score of 97% onRotten Tomatoes.

Aside from gripping storylines and incredible performances from its cast, fans praised how closely the episodes followed the real-life events they were based on, as well as the actors chosen to portray the criminals, many of whom look almost identical to the people they’re supposed to be playing.

This year, co-executive producer ofMindhunterDavid Fincher revealed there are now plans to bring the series back a third time, stating they were happy with where it ended. Fans haven’t accepted this answer though, and have launched a petition to make a third season happen.

Launched throughchange.org, the petition has now amassed a whopping 80,584 signatures at the time of writing, with a goal of 100,000 that’s not far off from hitting.
