On January 20, 2017, Dallas said in a red carpet interview at the People's Choice Awards: "For  sure. 100% there will be a season 2. [...] I think it's gonna dive deeper more into my relationship between my mom and sister, and then kind of a more in-depth view on where we're going and what's continuing to go on, because we're only taking steps forward, so I feel like the more we go, the more interesting it gets".

Common Sense Media's critical consensus reads , "Internet star's self-serving reality show has iffy messages", while giving the show a rating of 1/5. Kevin O'Keeffe, writing for mic.com also criticized the show, stating "his hesitance to let go of control makes Chasing Cameron a far worse show than it could have been". Michael Andor Brodeur, writing for "The Boston Globe", was somewhat more receptive, writing "There’s something about the abundant emptiness of “Chasing Cameron” that, right now, feels like a necessary refuge [...] basking in its inconsequential glow."
