"I'm looking forward to continuing the conversation. #IAmCait," Caitlyn tweeted on Thursday.

The first season of the show ran for eight episodes over the summer and documented Caitlyn's life as a transgender woman.

While scenes from the show made headlines almost weekly, its ratings weren't as impressive. According to Forbes, I Am Cait started out strong, garnering 2.7 million viewers, but by the third episode, the program was only bringing in 1.29 million viewers, nearly half of its audience since the premiere.
