To little surprise, ABC has cancelled 666 Park Avenue, their struggling Sunday night series. While the network will air all 13 episodes, there won’t be any after that. In addition, ABC also cancelled Last Resort today and CBS canned Partners.
666 Park Avenue follows a Midwest couple who’ve moved to New York City. They end up managing The Drake, a prestigious residential hotel that’s not as nice a building as it seems. The TV series features the talents of Terry O’Quinn, Vanessa Williams, Dave Annable, Rachael Taylor, Robert Buckley, Mercedes Masöhn, Helena Mattsson, Samantha Logan, and Erik Palladino.
The show debuted on September 30th, in ABC’s troubled Sundays at 10pm timeslot. The premiere’s ratings weren’t very impressive, attracting a mediocre 2.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.9 million total viewers. That was 30% lower than what Pan Am had registered a year earlier.
Park Avenue’s numbers have gotten even worse since the debut. The coveted demographic dropped to a 1.7 rating in week two (down 19%) and a 1.5 rating in week three (down another 12%). The ratings perked up a bit in weeks four (a 1.7 rating) and five (a 1.6 rating) but dropped to a 1.2 rating last Sunday.
But, what do you think? Should ABC have cancelled 666 Park Avenue? Will you miss the show?
They should have tried a different night. Finally something different and they cancelled without giving it a real chance. What a shame.
PLEAAAAASSSSEE DON T cancel the show.it was one of the few shows i looked foward too every Sunday even more than Revenge .like everyone else said just move it to another night PWEEEEASE 🙂
why is it all my shows i love are cancelled!! first the river now park ave now just not interested in really watching any abc shows!!
ABC -big mistake canceling this show ! It was so interesting & it kept u wanting more! So upset , loved this show! At least, give us the last 4 episodes..
Love the show! It seems every show that I truly enjoy, gets cancelled. Please don’t do it!!! The show makes you think, unlike the mindless reality shows.
I think 666 Park Ave would do so much better if it was on a different night. Being opposite some of Sunday night football is a death knell. MOVE IT BUT KEEP IT.
I enjoyed the show. It was just really getting good.
You networks just dump shows way too quickly! Don’t even give it a season to get it together !
Please don’t cancel the show, this is one of the very few shows we are longing to watch every week.
Loved the show.!!!…ABC needs to rethink cancelling the show and just move it to a better time slot… Or lets hope another cable channel will pick them up
Yes, I will miss this show. I think you should reconsider and continue to air the show. This is a good and different kind of show that I love to death. Please, please, please reconsider. I have turned on 5 of my co-workers to look at it and now they love it also, only to be cancelled. No! No! No!
Not fair AT ALL. What about the millons of viewers like me who could ‘t wait for Sunday to come to watch the next episode?! It was an awesome tv show. So sad ABC seems not to care about their loyal viewers 🙁
Terrible decision to cancel the show; just when things were getting heated up. There’s so much junk on tv. This was the one show I looked forward to watching every Sunday night. Vanessa Williams will be missed.
My other half and I have enjoyed ths show very much. We record it so we can watch it at any time. We very much wish you would not cancel this show. It’s the only show with edge of your seat excitement.
I am very upset this show is being cancelled. We had a set time that a group of came together to watch it. Just when we get to the suspense and figure out Sasha…The Drake closed. I guess we will never know who checked out besides whoopi.
I likes 666 but you can’t pit a show against AMC’s Sunday night line up and expect big ratings.
