No, there is no season 6 of the British science fiction series Primeval. The series officially concluded its run after five seasons.
Why Primeval Was Not Renewed
Despite strong interest from both the production team and the cast to continue the compelling Primeval storyline, the series was ultimately not renewed for a sixth season. The primary reasons behind this decision were:
- Poor Ratings: The fifth series of Primeval, which aired on ITV in 2012, experienced significant declines in viewership figures.
- Cancellation: These lower ratings led directly to the network's decision not to commission any further seasons, bringing the show to an end after its fifth installment.
This outcome meant that the adventures involving anomalies and prehistoric creatures encountering the modern world officially ceased, despite the creative team's desire to continue.
