There was even a date set for filming the new season. Apple sometimes does not announce some renewals.

Tehran has not been officially renewed, but they are already filming S3 in Athens. The Big Door Prize hasn't even premiered, but they've already started filming S2. Foundation's S3 is already in production and they start filming in April (S2 only opens in the summer).

People find out through tweets, photos or production listings.

Isn’t Tehran someone else’s production, and Apple only has US distribution rights? That would make sense, since someone else is going to be making the final renewal/cancellation decision.

No. Apple is a producer from S2 and global distributor. They announced the renewal for S2, by the way.

I think Shantaram really messed things up for Apple in that regard. To make an announcement mere hours before the season finale was released (that ended in “To Be Continued” no less) saying it would not be renewed was a pretty lousy move IMHO.

It’s left us questioning every new show from them now (eg Echo 3).
