You know that old line about “Please, don’t shoot the messenger”? Well, The CW has done just that. The network has cancelled The Messengers after one season. Only three episodes have aired thus far.
On The Messengers TV show, a mysterious object plummets to Earth and explodes in a blinding flash. It sends out a shock wave that instantly connects five strangers. They receive extraordinary gifts, from inexplicable strength to the ability to heal others. The cast includes Shantel VanSanten, Jon Fletcher, Sofia Black-D’Elia, J. D. Pardo, Joel Courtney, Anna Diop, and Diogo Morgado.
The move to cancel the series doesn’t come as much of a surprise. The Messengers has performed quite poorly so far, even for a Friday night show. Last week’s installment hit a new low with just 650,000 viewers and a 0.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic.
For now, it looks like the series will stay on the air to finish out its run of 13 total episodes.
What do you think? Do you like The Messengers? Do you think that it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
It was very premature to cancel this show it was new and different which seems to be the type of show that gets cancelled all to often. I was enjoying it. Hope some other station picks it up
I’m not surprised that they cancelled the show. For one thing its well done! Television wants to keep all the poorly written and offensive stuff on the air. This show sends a good message. I like that they have people from all different backgrounds and races working together for a common goal.
This show should’ve been on the ABC Family channel. It would’ve done a lot better with a targeted audience.
Love the show, it’s getting better every week…hoping some other network will pick it up for a 2nd season!!
Oh No!!! I love this show. I can’t believe it. I was looking for an entertaining show like this with angels to give us hope in a world like this. I pray that it continues The Messenger is a great great show!!
its very common series about God and with an intense message get cancelled. sad
Agree
Hey guys its such a shame that the show dint get the ratings cause i really loved it, it has a strong message that people can learn. please don’t let it end.
Omg I can’t believe this!!! I love this show and I’m only on the 6th episode, I think they should make a SEASON 2!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree. We need a season two.
I am LOVING this show! I am in Australia and just watched 5 episodes! I can’t beleive that they are cancelling it!
I like the show. It’s a shame that they cancelled after only 3 episodes. They were on Friday’s at 9pm and against NBC’s Grimm. Tough breaks all around. I will miss the show. They should put it on a different night or perhaps following one the better rated CW shows
I think this show can be saved only with interest in making things seam a little more exciting. Using their abilities to inhance the search for the horseman and challenging the oppoint instead of losing without challenging with some action! I hope the show continue and not be cancelled!
I love this show! You did not even give it a fair shot at finding its audience!!!
I didn’t start watching the Messengers when it first aired in April. ..but then started watching in May I love the show just to be finding out its being cancelled. .I don’t think the cw even gave the show a chance… will there be another channel that will pick the show up?
Why would you cancel this show, i love it. all the way from Ghana, there is a fan of this show… pls you guy should do something about this and just bring the show back to life.. what people understand is that, there are choices, every one got different taste in TV shows, negative comment from others are the cause of immaturity, you don’t like it there is no need to comment at all, just find another show to watch besides there are a lot of tv shows out there and let us who enjoys this show keep watching it..… Read more »
My family and I love this show as it has values, I don’t understand why they cancelled it? Then we had many shows that goes on and on season after season that the ideas are just beating around the bushes but still get renewed ! No wonder my kids preferred PlayStation time than TV time as there are no show that they are interested in anymore. Come on CW help us to help your channel, this will help the next generation to remember the shows they grow up with your channel.
