MOTORHEADS Shouldn’t Have Been CANCELLED!

Written by Kai Voorhees

When I saw Motorheads in the top ten on Prime Video, I wanted to look into it. When I heard it was a mix of teen drama and cars, I was hooked instantly. I needed to watch it. 

Motorheads is a show based on two twins Caitlyn and Zac Torress. They move from Brooklyn to their mom’s home town of Ironwood, Pennsylvania. Nobody knows that their dad is Christian Maddox when they arrive. Christian Maddox is a racing legend who was involved with a heist many years ago. This led to him going missing. However, kids soon find out about their relation to Christian and have varying reactions. The show goes into many different plots. There are love triangles, deep friendships, lots of races and rivalry.

‍ ‍ In my article, “We Were Liars–The Show That Broke Me” I mentioned that I wasn’t very easy to impress when it came to TV shows. I have a very short attention span and I tend to have a hard time sitting still. Not only did this show have me seated, but I also rewatched it. 

It isn’t just me that liked the show. It was on Prime Video’s top ten list for a long time. This is due to the fans. A user on Reddit said, “I loved this first season and I really want to know what happens next. I want Caitlyn and Zac to find their dad so I think there should be another season.”

I couldn’t agree more. This is why I was beyond surprised when I found out that Prime Video decided to cancel the show. However, there is still reason to be excited. The writer, Johnny Norris, confirmed the second season has been written and they are looking for a new streaming service to carry the show. 

We can all hope another streaming service will pick up the show. When I was looking for ways to help, I came across a Reddit user who found a website where people could make positions. There has been one made for the second season of Motoheads. If you would like to sign the petition, it is completely free and all you need to do is sign in with your Google account. I am not the creator of this website, or of the petition. However, I did sign it. I can only hope that this petition will open more doors for the creator of the show to be able to take this show to the next season.
