In an interview with TVGuide.com, Conviction’s Merrin Dungey, who plays Conviction Integrity Unit investigator Maxine Bohen, confirmed that there are no plans to do more than the initial 13 episodes, but the finale will be open-ended.
Dungey says that while ABC likes the show, the network’s programming slate is just very crowded right now.
“She sent me a little text, a little email, that was just a bunch of exclamation points,” says Merrin.
Merrin says she doesn’t get any inside info on the inner workings of the network — or even any tips about her own show.
