“Eli Stone” (Amazon Ad) has been picked up for a second season, according to USA Today. It will air on Tuesdays at 10 p.m.

Jonny Lee Miller stars as the title character Eli Stone, who is a lawyer who has hallucinations that lead him to a higher purpose. The first season includes many George Michael songs and occasional appearances of George Michael.

The second season of Eli Stone does not rely on the George Michael theme, which is a disappointment for George Michael fans.

In 2016, one of the creators of Eli Stone, Marc Guggenheim, told Entertainment Weekly:

George was a singular talent. He had a gift for music that only comes along once in a generation. It was just a bonus that he happened to be one of the nicest, most genuine people you could meet. Many of my fondest memories of the Eli Stone experience are associated with him. 2016 has taken another gift from us.

E! Online is reporting the following news on a second season of “Eli Stone.”

The upfronts aren’t next until week in New York City, which is where all the official pickups and cancellations are set to be announced, but sources close to ABC have tipped me that while bubble show Eli Stone will get the nod for a season two, another hour-long drama, Women’s Murder Club, will not be returning.

The Eli_Stone_TV community at Livejournal.com recently initiated a fan campaign to show our support for Eli Stone.

Each fan will donate (as much as he or she would like) to the Autism Society of America and designate the donation “in honor of Eli Stone”. After donating, the fan will then send a donation receipt/postcard to ABC. A donation receipt/postcard has been designed and is available on the Eli_Stone_TV community at Livejournal.com if fans would like to use it. The link to the design and information about donating online is here.

I was asked to find a way to contact ABC to tell them that we want “Eli Stone” renewed.  Here is what I found:

Here’s just a reminder that the finale of “Eli Stone” is on tonight and make sure not to miss George Michael.  Although the show still hasn’t been renewed for a second season, I’m sure we’re all hopeful to see more of George Michael in the U.S. next year.  I’m including a few of the recent articles on “Eli Stone” and George Michael:

A Fond Farewell to Eli Stone

Which all leads to one last production number, one last vision of George Michael, and one last demonstration of how to juggle show-stopping whimsy and unabashed heart in a thoroughly winning package. This episode also is a perfect example of how to end a season when you’re not sure the show itself has a future. It leaves you hanging in all the right ways, convincing you there is much more story to tell even as it satisfies you that it has told the introductory chapter and wrapped it up as well as humanly possible.

Is It “Do Not Resuscitate” For Eli Stone?

I can’t say that the initial moments of its debut episode made me especially optimistic — a lawyer has hallucinations about George Michael? — but I’ve ended up enjoying Eli Stone, which ends its season tonight. ABC gave it 13 episodes to prove itself, and while its ratings were pretty iffy (it really only scored when following the season premiere of Lost and the post-strike premiere of Desperate Housewives), I’d much rather see a second season of George Michael music than, say, the renewed and dullsville Private Practice.

‘Eli Stone’ ends season

Eli Stone hauls out the big cliffhanger for its season finale, as the title character undergoes surgery to have his brain aneurysm removed. The episode touches on right-to-die issues as Eli falls into a coma, where he sees God, who looks a lot like George Michael (the singer has been popping up in Eli’s hallucinations all season).
