As expected A Gifted Man was cancelled by CBS over the weekend. It was no surprise to the show’s star, Patrick Wilson. Via Twitter, he noted that he’d been expecting the cancellation for about two months.
Wilson wasn’t crazy however about the way that he was informed about the show being cancelled. Wilson noted, “So…shocking to no one: #agiftedman is done.Found out via email…and not from the network.Stay classy.Thanks to AGM fans! Great cast/crew!” (He later acknowledged that the “Stay classy” part was indeed a nod to Anchorman.)
A very busy and versatile performer, it doesn’t sound like Wilson is as upset about the cancellation as some of the show’s fans.
He followed up with, “Thanks for the AGM love…but now that it’s “official,”I couldn’t be happier. As good as it was(sometimes) it was not what I signed on for.”
Wilson tweeted on Sunday, “At St. Patrick’s cathedral…. Breathtaking…. Puts a lot in perspective. Go dag. :)”
What do you think? Are you sorry to hear that A Gifted Man won’t be back? Would you like to see Wilson in a new TV series someday? What kind? Perhaps on a show that would showcase his singing?

Another good program is tossed away. Good morals, uplifting show. so for sure the network cancels it!
I’m very disappointed. Agm was my favorite new show. Great cast and heartfelt writing. It’s my first time enjoying the dreamy Patrick Wilson. I will be a followerer now, FOR SURE. Hope u land somewhere Patrick. I will be waiting and will be tuning in. ❤
Hey! Now my Friday night tv clog has opened up!!! I no longer have a reason to watch this channel, so I can watch shows on networks that actually know how to keep the shows that are worth watching. (Trying to stay positive, so figured I would put it this way as opposed to stating the obvious and berating the network for canceling the only reason I watched the channel during that timeslot.)
I loved this show, very classy.
I am so disapointed. I love this show! Great acting! Great story lines. Why is it so many shows never get a chance. They make shows faster than we can sneeze ( a few weeks or couple months?) and rarely give any of them a chance to blossom! What about what we want? Gone is the long running show for years, barely can get them to survive a season anymore!
Sure, the show was a bit of fantasy, but it was pretty well done. The story lines were acceptable, and that redhead!!! Wow!
Sorry AGM was canceled. Enjoyed Patrick Wilson’s work along with the rest of the cast. To bad in this day and age a quality show is not given time to find it’s legs. It was not the normal doctor show which was one of the many things I enjoyed about it. Thanks to everyone who was involved in it.
I liked the show! I’m going to miss it!!!
Sorry to see this show go. Yes, I get that it really stretched the boundaries of reality. That said, I felt that the show had potential. I particularly liked that Michael was put in his place from time to time. Even the very finest physicians can always learn more from the people around them.
AGM was becoming my #1, living for Friday….If Patrick Wilson is happy OK..but I did love the show and I hate it got axed. Reality, blood and gore, and SEX filled just doesn’t make a show. AGM was showing great stories and a great cast. I do not get to Broadway, can’t afford to. But I do hope that Mr. Wilson will someday grace my TV again, in something besides, reality, sitcoms, bedding every other girl and showing his naked rear- with those eyes– he doesn’t have to. CBS should have hung on for a little longer. They really think… Read more »
Your network has so many reality shows that are silly and no thought has to be put into it. This was a quality show with outstanding actors and scripts. Who makes the decisions on your cancellations some young person who is a fan of bug eating? Don’t let this go. Give it a second chance.
I really like this show. There is more to be seen. I like that the wife shows up and helps him in certain situations. I actually like all the characters too. It was awesome when Michael played the drums.
I am really tired of reality shows that I don’t watch, you really have a number of them. Heck I should just cancel direct tv and watch our stations here in this area. It is not worth my time to get interested in a series and then you cancel them and leave shows on that are close to porn.
I am very sorry A Gifted Man was cancelled. I was really enjoying it…even if they ran it thru to finish a season would have been nice…i kept waiting for it to return 🙁
I liked this show. but agree with the person who said the appearances of the dead wife should go…now that the good Dr. ‘saw the light’ her presence was no longer needed
I loved the show. I am going to miss it.
