Is The Exorcist ending for good? Executive producer Jeremy Slater recently announced season one of the FOX TV series has finished filming.
Based on the 1973 horror film, the drama follows two priests who team together to solve a terrifying case of demonic possession. The cast includes Ben Daniels, Alfonso Herrera, Kurt Egyiawan, Geena Davis, Alan Ruck, Brianne Howey, and Hannah Kasulka.
On his Twitter, Slater posted a farewell to season one of The Exorcist and urged fans to help get the low-rated series a second season:
Final day of filming. This show has been my entire life–16 hours a day, seven days a week–for the last year. Saying goodbye sucks. pic.twitter.com/XjKQ2ytPXJ

So far, FOX has not made an announcement about The Exorcist‘s renewal status. However, the series has not been performing well in the ratings. Seven episodes in and it’s earned an average of .70 in the 18-49 demo and only 2.016 million viewers.
What do you think? Are you watching The Exorcist? Do you want a second season?
I have to confess that I’m completely terrified at the thought of watching the Exorcist. Oddly, I have watched Exorcist II and III and a number of exorcism movies. Still, no 1973 Exorcist for me. I followed this series from the beginning and have been extremely pleased. I hope FOX does not continue its habit of disrespecting supernatural shows. So far they have done to Sleepy Hollow, Exorcist and Fringe what they have done to the Fox own Marvel characters. Give this show a better chance FOX. The people have spoken and those who know the show exists want it… Read more »

Please renew The Exorcist. I was hooked from the first episode. To leave it where it is, with no conclusion, is just cruel.
Please renew. It’s the only show on tv I watch. I wrote fox.com a letter requesting the show’s renewal.
Please renew for a new season! We have a viewing party around this series, it is such a great show! I’m not really into horror type films, but I got caught up into this series. So much better than most of what’s on tv!
