There are 26 letters in the alphabet but NBC’s A to Z TV show only lasted five episodes before being cancelled. The peacock network has decided not to order any more installments beyond their initial 13 episode order.
A to Z follows the story of Andrew (Ben Feldman) and Zelda (Cristin Milioti) — two young people who are very different. Their relationship shouldn’t work and yet it does. Is it true love forever or just a detour in destiny? The rest of the cast includes Christina Kirk, Henry Zebrowski, Hong Chau, Lenora Crichlow, and Katey Sagal.
Debuting on October 2nd, the series got off to a poor start with a 1.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.79 million viewers. Viewership fell 24% in week two and the ratings kept falling every week after that. This week’s installment, opposite CBS’ returning sitcoms, hit a new low with a 0.7 in the demo and 2.49 million viewers.
Based on the numbers, it’s no surprise that NBC is cancelling A to Z. It is a bit surprising however that the show is staying in production. Eleven episodes have been shot and two more will be produced. Hopefully, the sitcom’s writer will be able to adjust the remaining scripts to bring a fitting conclusion to Andrew and Zelda’s story.
For now, NBC plans to air the eight remaining episodes. The Blacklist will take over the Thursdays at 9pm timeslot on February 5th.
Companion sitcom Bad Judge has also been cancelled.
What do you think? Do you like the A to Z TV show? Do you think that NBC should have cancelled it? Would you have watched a second season?
Liked it. Nothing to watch now, not a blacklist fan.
BLiked it. Nothing to watch now, not a blacklist fan.
Loved this show!!! Bring it back!!!
Bring back A to Z I liked it and I think it was a good show. I guess since no sex murder or cursing in it they will not keep it on TV.
A to Z hilarious. Heart warming. Love story. OK the ratings not good. That’s cuz nobody knew about it or knew what time it comes on, maybe bad time slot. But I watched every episode. Probably only one that I know who watches it or heard of it. But they need to bring it back. Who ever cancelled it, watch the show you idiot. I only seen 11 episodes. I need 26 episodes at least. They have to finish the story and get married
they need more good comments so they could renew this show or ending it with a bang…..
A to Z was a great show and my best friend and I were really upset to find it was cancelled! Bring it back!

Keep A to Z on TV. I like this show and I’m 46 years old. It was a fresh look at dating for any age. It was a great new show. Bring it back so I can see how it ends
That figures – a nice light, happy show about a happy couple gets cancelled. I don’t know why I ever get addicted to shows like this – they all get cancelled. Not enough death, doom and despair it seems. What is wrong with our 18-49 age group?!?!
We looked forward to see this show each week. It was fresh change to a lot of garbage that is on TV like Law and Order.
so have they put back a to a back?????
Please DONT cancel!!
so whats the new about the situation of a to z??? hope it those not get cancel
Selfie and A to Z. Disappointing. Great shows and a sweet deversion from all the dramas. Sad.
Love this show. Finally one that is a simple and sweet romantic comedy. So disappointed. Please give it a chance, bring it back. Loved everything about it!!!!
I loved this series!!!! Please bring it back. It was funny, sweet and clever. The whole cast was great and their characters were hilariously quirky. One the best shows on tv…please bring it back!!!!
so whats the news, is it going to ended or continue it….. or it still cancelled!!!!!
