Summary and storyline

Created by Laurie Finstad-Knizhnik, Strange Empire is a Canadian western drama television series about three strong women who band together in order to protect their lives after the men of their town were murdered. The series originally aired in Canada on CBC but was cancelled after just one season. However, the show found new life in the U.S. on the Lifetime Network, which picked it up under a new tagline Strange Empire: Rise of the Women. The first season premiered in the U.S. on May 29, 2015.

Set in 1869, this series portrays three women living in the perilous and dangerous Montana and Alberta region. Kat and Rebecca and their husbands have moved to a small town in the North American frontier, trying to begin their lives as newly married couples. Once in Janestown, they meet Isabelle Slotter, who runs a famous House of Prostitution and whose husband is a very powerful man in the area. After a conflict between several men arises, Captain John Slotter and his helpers murder all men of the town and attempt to make every woman work as prostitutes. It is at this moment that Kat, Rebecca and Isabelle realize that that they must join forces to protect themselves in this risky world.

Ratings, reviews and possible renewal

LMN is broadcast to some 86 million people in the U.S., which makes the chances of success for this series a lot greater than in Canada. Scoring a 6.5 out of 10 on IMDb, the show has a steady viewer base and has received critical acclaim. Although at this moment there’s no news on the future of the series, we hope that we will see Strange Empire: Rise of the Women Season 2 in the future.

September 2023: I just spent viewing the entire 13 episodes of season 1. Loved the series ❤️. I'm thinking of dressing up like Kat for Halloween. Her outstanding performance and her role portraying a half blooded Indian was ingenious. All actors did an excellent job as well. Bravo to all the female actors 👏 Please make a Season 2. What happens to Jeremiah?

I love this show and wish they would make more seasons. Its getting to the point I dont want to watch any series anymore because they have 1 or 2 seasons ending in cliff hangers and then cancel the show. Seriously considering banning all series to avoid the constant let down.

Just discovered this show yesterday and binged watched all 13 episodes only to be left with a cliffhanger. Now realizing that this series is almost 7 years old. I completely understand your sentiment, and I feel the same way we’re never going to learn if Jeremiah loving, survived and where he’s been. What a shame, these actors deserve to finish their story.

Loved first season of Strange Empire! I am hoping they will renew second season.
It pains me to see such asinine reality shows on TV. How many episodes of Dance Moms & Hoarders can you watch??? Furthermore; I cannot believe that shows like Honey boo boo, Real housewives & a number of ridiculous shows like Breaking Amish get renewed again and again & who I personally believe the Amish community would definitely vote for a cancelation for the embarrassment of their culture. Sorry for getting off topic. Please bring back Strange Empire, it was highly enjoyable. Or pick up the dumped White Queen from Stars! That was an amazing historical/fictional show that is in desperate need for second season!

I would love to see additional seasons of Strange Empire!! There is definitely a market for this kind of diversity and 'bottom-up' perspective in the U.S., and abroad. The show just needs a chance to find its audience!

I felt the same way! Wasn’t sure what I thought about it at the beginning, but after a few episodes, I was hooked. So terrible for the viewers and actors both to just drop a storyline the way they did shame on who’s ever responsible for canceling this.

I'm so upset! I just randomly thought about this show just now and I find that it has been cancelled?! Ugh! There is so much left to be unknown, and to cancel without a tie up, just rude! :(. I really hope they bring this back. I don't watch much tv, but I went out of my way to find the first few episodes of this just to watch what I'd stored on my dvr.
