It’s time for the aliens to go home. ABC has cancelled The Neighbors after two seasons and 44 episodes.
A family sitcom, The Neighbors follows the Weaver clan as they try to live in a beautiful gated community that’s filled with alien visitors from the planet Zabvron. The ensemble castmembers are Jami Gertz, Lenny Venito, Simon Templeman, Toks Olagundoye, Tim Jo, Clara Mamet, Ian Patrick, Isabella Cramp, and Max Charles.
After a first season of mediocre ratings, the series could have been cancelled last May. However, ABC decided to stick with it and scheduled it on Friday nights. Expectations on Fridays are lower but The Neighbors’ ratings ended up being too low for a third season renewal.
Castmate Olagundoye tweeted the news, “Tweeps, I have known since last night, but was not able to share the news until it was announced publicly. #TheNeighbirs has been cancelled”
What do you think? Are you sorry that there won’t be a third season? If you ran the network, would you have cancelled this show?
THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE CANCELED THIS!!! I loved it sooo much!!! I hate when they cancel shows because the network did not time the series right. Do they realize we are in a download later, record and watch it later generation?? The problem is there are 99 channels and not everyone gets to watch something at the same time. I watched this late and realized this is the most funniest show I have ever watched on tv… it comes in the top funniest comedies like Seinfield. It’s terrible that they cancel shows just because of ratings in this generation. There… Read more »
Bring it back!!!!! Australia
I think this is another one of those shows like firefly that got its fan based a little to late. However, I love this show it is so different and quirky. It hasn’t been cancelled very long and I would love to see it brought back. I’m not sure what most of the cast is doing now but if it is at all possible I think this show deserves another shot. Maybe Netflix or Amazon could pick it up if a Network doesn’t want to.
Watched this show for first time last week and it is so quirky, clever and funny. Don’t usually go for US humour but this was a gem. An equal to 3rd Rock From Sun ( the other American show I liked). Can’t it start over?Greetings from Oz.

Living in Germany I finally had a chance to watch the first two seasons recently and I absolutely loved the show. I am very sad to hear the show got cancelled. Best sit-com I’ve seen in a long, long time.
This show is so creative and funny. I think they were too hasty to cancel it. might have just taken longer to catch on. love this show. so upbeat and surprisingly relatable.
