While LU stands on it own how would you describe it? Me, I say it is the best parts of ECW, the REAL one, mixed with Lucha and having a super hero and supernatural thriller feel. Only one foot in reality while letting the other one roam free.

The producer of Lucha Underground has been out there in a few places saying that they are trying to get funding to support another season of the show. Its very expensive to film in the way they want to film it. One place they are trying to get on is Netflix, to show Season 1 and then have new episodes of season 2 come out on the streaming channel the day after it debuts on El Rey.
I think its a great idea, as its the perfect wrestling show to binge watch and can easily appeal to a non wrestling audience. I hope they are successful. If you do tweet about it use the hashtag #NetflixNeedsLucha

That is awesome. I am pretty sure El Rey will be trying to keep it as long as the numbers were decent for it due to having Dusk to Dawn which is also by RIP and is due to start their 2nd season in a couple weeks.

Lucha is not sports entertainment. It's wrestling fiction.

Great storylines, great way of shooting it, and great action.

SNAP! Recently finished season one...
This has rapidly become one of my most favorite shows of all-time... The athletic ability of these performers is off the chain! I know some of the story scenes are kinda corny, but it's so entertaining...
In fact, Lucha Underground has inspired me to start up a brand new GWF with a similar production format... And I'm having a blast with it...
Cannot wait for season two! Wonder where Dario's new temple will be located...

LOVE Lucha Underground! It's got a great mix of high camp story lines, comic book presentation and awesome action. Plus Alberto El Patron is in it! Imagine a card set for Lucha Underground?!

Yeah man, can't remember the last time a wrestling show...or really any show captivated me like that. Really hope they can work something out with netflix and keep it going.

Just announced today that Lucha Underground will be back for season 2 in early 2016! Woohoo! So happy to hear this... They've got such a great thing going... And even though they've decided to take a completely over-the-top approach with their characters and storylines, I find myself totally buying into each episode, as if it were really happening... Kinda like Christmas and Santa Claus... You just can't help but believe...
