Alan Cumming has taken to social media to eulogize CBS’ Instinct, which on Friday was cancelled after two seasons. In a heartfelt post, the Good Wife alum pays tribute to his co-star, Bojana Novakovic, and acknowledges the significance of playing the first-ever openly gay lead character on a broadcast network drama.
“So the word is out. @InstinctCBS will not be returning for a third season,” he writes. “Almost exactly three years ago I was sent a galley copy of a book by [James Patterson] and [Howard Roughan] and then I met the showrunner [Michael Rauch] who was to adapt it...

Instinct star/executive producer Alan Cumming took to Instagram Saturday to react to the CBS crime drama’s cancellation after two seasons.
He recalled the origins of the series, which started as a pitch based on then-upcoming novel by James Patterson and Howard Roughan. Cumming came on board the adaptation, written by former Royal Pains executive producer/showrunner Michael Rauch, during its early stages of development. The project was then set up at CBS where it went to pilot and then to series that aired for two seasons.
In his post, which features several photos from the set of Instinct, Cumming shares his regret over the series’ cancellation and his gratitude “for two seasons of fun and gore.” He gives shout-outs to his co-lead Bojana Novakovic and the series’ costume designer Dan Lawson, responsible for Cumming’s character’s dapper look on the show, and he goes on to list some amusing behind-the-scenes moments.
