It looks like Chloe King may indeed have nine lives, or at least her show may have a second one. At today’s ABC Family session of the Television Critics Association Press Tour, president Michael Riley said that a TV movie of cancelled The Nine Lives of Chloe King may be coming.
The Nine Lives of Chloe King was cancelled in September following a less-than-successful season of 10 episodes. Like many ongoing serials that end prematurely, Chloe King left viewers with lots of unanswered questions. In the final episode, Chloe (Skyler Samuels) lost another of her lives and was kissed by Brian (Grey Damon) — who then died (?) from the contact. Alek (Benjamin Stone) walked in on his brother Zane (Daniel Sharman) as he stood over Jasmine (Alyssa Diaz) and Valentina (Alicia Coppola) as they are dying from poison.
Interestingly, Riley prefers not to talk about the cable channel’s decisions to cancel certain shows and that includes Chloe King. He said, “We never talk about cancelling shows at ABC Family. We always make sure we air all of our productions because for us, it’s very much a long-term view. Honestly, we love all of our shows, and Chloe King is such a great example of just an amazing show. We loved the cast, we loved the writing in that show. For us, it was about making some decisions. We had to choose between what we thought was resonating stronger with the audience.”
Riley continued, “We are actually on the verge of putting a movie into development. For us, we are always looking at the intellectual property that we’re capitalizing on and making sure there is opportunity.” He emphasized that the projects not a done deal yet however, saying, “We are just looking at it in development right now. The idea is very much to capitalize on the storytelling that’s already been in place.”
What do you think? Would you like to see a Chloe King movie? What other “cancelled” ABC Family shows should be given a second look?

Please bring it back. I watched the 10 shows back to back on Netflix. I didn’t know what I was missing. I’m sure there are other people who find this series the same way I did.
I personally loved The Nine lives Of Chloe King. I would also love the oppertunity to finish the amazing series watching it in TV show form. To me the suspense of waiting and wanting to know what will happen the next week is what keeps the show interesting. And that will keep veiwers wanting more, and to be mpre excited about than a movie.
I would love to have the show back. There are so many unanswered questions that we all would love to have answered. It was one of the best clean cut shows that was on the air. Next to switch at birth.
Need to do something, too many unanswered questions. My husband and I are pissed. We need to tell us what happens.
Please bring this show back!!! I love it and it is just so awesome!!!
I would totally watch it if you brought it back!!!!
Yes, please make a movie. I can’t believe this show was cancelled. I loved this show and thought that everybody was watching it. I think you should replay it and see it the ratings go back up. They likely will. All the the young and old Americans out here love theses type of fantasy shows. Please bring it back!!!!! Or if I had to settle, I would love to have some of my questions answered. So sad to see another great show cancelled. So sad.
Bring it back PLEASE :’( I BEG YOU, ABC FAMILY!!!
Please bring it back wife and daughters are all pissed off. At least to answer the cliff hangers!!!
A great production worldwide! Woul like to have seen the ending aswell… Hope it will be à movie from this
please, Chloe King is SO BETTER than that Sutton Mercer..
let’s try another season, please!!! xoxo K
PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!! THAT WAS ONE OF THE SHOWS I ALWAYS MADE SURE NOT TO MISS <////3 D':
They should definately bring this wonderful show back. It’s entertaining, suspenseful and exciting. To be able to watch the adventure continue would be perfect. Maybe Disney or another channel should take it over, and give it the respect it deserves. To be honest, this is the only drama show that I watch on ABC Family. There is still so much more to learn about Cloe and her background. Please give her another chance. Thank you.
I really liked the show……I think they should bring it back
Pretti little liars is a bad show tesching children how to lie and cheat. not worthy of a TV show for families!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree, it glorifies lying and cheating by making the main characters the way they are… of course, I primarily think Pretty Little Liars is a bad show because it’s sooooo boring! I remember when they tried sticking portions of Pretty Little Boring People into the commercial breaks of Chloe King (fantastic show!) and marveling at the mind-sucking boringness of it.
YES YOU NEED TO BRING BACK CHLOE!!!!! WE COULD NOT GET ENOUGH>
i love this show pleas bring it back i love it so much
