Javier has the official word on the MiddleMan status. Â In short, he is still stating that Season 2 depends on the DVD sales from the MiddleMan DVD collection. Â Here’s an excerpt from the MiddleBlog..

Q. has “the middleman” been cancelled?
A. why must we rush to use the “c†word? it’s so ugly. i prefer to think of “the middleman†as dormant – hibernating in a high-tech vat, or a sac filled with a translucent amniotic fluid that may, perhaps, glow…a show in transition…like a massive televisual pupa…changing, evolving, gaining strength.
Q. all right, cut the crap – will there be a second season or what?
A. whatever future “the middleman†has will depend entirely on sales of the dvd boxed set (coming this july from shout! factory!). if the dvd sells well, maybe there will be an opening to bring the characters back in some form or another…history has shown that this is a possibility (as in “serenity†and “family guy†– you know, hope springs eternal).
