Question: Does A&E have any plans to show new seasons of
MI-5, or is the network just so darn happy with its family of dysfunctional reality shows? (At least they dumped
Growing Up Gotti.) If A&E doesn't have plans, maybe BBC America can add it. It's their show after all.
Answer: Last I heard, a new season of
MI-5 is finally scheduled to return to A&E's schedule on September 15. It is so far outside the realm of what A&E is all about these days, I'm frankly surprised it ever resurfaced. You're right that it would be a better fit on BBC America. But millions more people have access to A&E, so I'm glad it will get the widest exposure possible. For now.
