Ambitions did not win out in the end. OWN canceled the series. This means the series will not return for a second season. The first season ended on December 19. This means the show’s season finale will also serve as its series finale.
Robin Givens broke the news on her Instagram. Per Deadline, she said: “Found out last week #Ambitions wouldn’t be returning for a second season ….”
OWN also released a statement about the cancellation. Tina Perry, OWN president, said the following:“We’re thankful to Will Packer, Jamey Giddens and the entire cast and crew of Ambitions for their creativity and hard work on the show. Every week they delivered great drama, intrigue and a lot of fun storytelling. We look forward to continue working with Will Packer and his talented team of collaborators in the future.”
During its season, Ambitions averaged 714,000 viewers per episode.
What do you think? Were you a fan of Ambitions? Would you have watched a season two?
So disappointed Ambitions will not be returning. This show was really good and we were looking forward to seeing more. #anothergoodshowbitesthedust
I am nervously disappointed!!!
It’s so very disheartening to finally get good black television shows on air only to have them cancelled after one or two seasons. Ambitions was one of the best black drama series on TV and it gets cancelled after one season?? Keep in mind I don’t have OWN I just had the opportunity to watch the show on STARZ. Why are our shows constantly being done this way? I understand business however, this is not a Ratings problem. Where is the fight? We need these shows for the culture and they are constantly being taken away. If it’s a budget… Read more »
Jessica. We loved the show, and trying to see why it was canceled. MAYBE it should go to another network.
I am so disappointed to hear that Ambitions will not be returning. I was so looking forward to another season. This was absolutely one of OWN’s best show to watch. I was never disappointed with an episode. This is unreal.
I just finished watching ambition since I have time. I’m very disappointed the show will not go on because it was really good. If the show was due to rating then Opra should have something for non cable subscribers can watch her network which would increase ratings on her network.
Yes, I was anticipating season two only to learn that it will not be one this is disappointing
Yes we will miss the show. This was one our date night shows Why would you leave us like that.
Wait!!! No season 2????? And leave the audience confused I don’t understand I’m highly disappointed i find it unfair who does that???? Wowww Thanks a lot y’all really gonna do that to us , really????UNBELIEVABLE I am so hurt rn , is there a way it can come on another network I mean c’ mon. Smh!!!!
I totally agree
I actually didn’t mind it…I seen my mom watching it and figured I’ll give it a try and I liked it. My favorite characters was Lori and Greg sucks I won’t know if Lori ever made it up to carli
It sucks to try out a new series and find out at the end of a Season that it’s the end of the Series. The show was good. Although, I was angered and disappointed at the assumed death of Titus and death of Senior. They were the only two characters who were great men and y’all killed them off. Then y’all decide to kill the whole show. Bad decision! I’m really disappointed. BOOOOOOOO OWN you suck!
This is very disappointing to hear that Ambition will not be returning for a second season. To the producers of OWN please reconsider and bring one of my favorites shows back.
Yes I would have watched season two. So sad to hear the show had been cancelled. It was a very intense and powerful show with an awesome cast.
