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?
Out of all the boring shows on own they decide to cancel a one of the only good ones they had? This is the only show that had me check out anything on own. Tyler perry felt threatened by a show that was actually better than all of his put together huh? I won’t be watching anything on own at all because of this. How do you leave people on a cliff hanger like that? Own sucks
Maybe you didn’t advertise Ambition enough. Loved that show !!!!
Horrible decision. This was a great show. I hope someone else decides to pick it up.
NOT a good decision the show is great!! Why would you cancel such a great show, with great talent? Just when we were finally seeing more shows with talented African American Actors with Awesome Ambition!!!
Bad decision taking Ambition off, the show was for a mature audience. Ambition had great story lines and excellent actors. So sad really enjoyed the show. Only shows watched on OWN were or are Green Leaf, Ambition and sometimes Huntsville.
Sad. Ambitions was my 2nd favorite show, next to Power. What happened?? Maybe they should have promoted the show more. I know some people didn’t know about the show. Show didn’t get a full chance.
I am really surprised hearing of this cancellation. Ambitions was on my must-see list along with the HAHN on OWN and The Oval and Sistas on BET. I was looking so forward to Season 2 of Ambitions. I don’t like reality shows and there are so many that need to be canned. Guess I’ll go to Netflix, STARZ, etc. I don’t know how the system works but maybe BET could air it. My daughter will be pissed when I tell her because she loved the show especially Robin Givens role. So sad OWN. You lost a lot of cool points… Read more »
This was a bad decision!! I loved this show I used to look forward to it coming on. This should have been on bet!! I agree with some of the other comments if loving you is wrong should be taken off.. I am so over that show!!
bad decision! It looks like Tyler has monopolized OWN! get it together give some other writers a shot at a series…now I’ll only be watching 1 show THAVN… I hope they know BET has really great programs now…don’t take ur viewers for granted. I admire Tyler but he’s over saturated! I’m Tylered out!
Yes! Bad Decision! We need to take a vote and complain on their website and Facebook page. Tyler doesn’t have anything on Own anymore.
Omg why it was so good you guys are so wrong for canceling Ambitions
Me and my family watch it all the time and now it won’t be returning for a second season
