Last night, NBC aired the season finale of American Odyssey. Though the show’s ratings have been very poor, there’s apparently still some hope that the drama will survive to see a second season.
Last night, executive producer Peter Horton wrote, “Seeing your comments all season, but especially tonight, best fans ever. Will let you know about season two tomorrow. xo #AmericanOdyssey”
Unfortunately for fans of American Odyssey, the ratings have not been good. The series debuted to low ratings — a 1.14 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.372 million viewers — and they’ve gotten much worse since then. Last week’s installment hit a new low with a 0.4 in the demo and 2.2 million.
6/29 update: Series co-creator Adam Armus has tweeted, “No news today dear #AmericanOdyssey fans. See you here tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel.”
6/30 update: NBC has cancelled the series.
What do you think? Have you stuck with the series? Are you hoping that it will be renewed for a second season?
Great show, great writing and an amazing group of actors. Would hate to see it cancelled! Please bring it back for season 2!!
Please renew for another season. Can’t leave us hanging without an ending.
It’s getting better — flawed but human. Give it another season.
I have watched every episode and can hardly wait for the next week to come! I love the building of the relationships in this series. Getting ready for episode 13, I watched all episodes again on Hulu……….I watched episode 12 five times and never tired of it and always had tears! I am a fan. I have asked several people I know if they watch the show and they have said they are in bed at that time……maybe that is part of the problem?
This is one of my favorite television shows. I never have time to watch it at the time it airs, but I always catch up the next day. I hope it at least comes back for a second season!
I can’t get enough! Would love so much more! The reason ratings are bad for most shows is that people do not want to commit to watching them for fear that they will be cancelled soon in their runs or after the first season. So, like me, many people DVR the show and wait to see if the show is cancelled before committing to it. Well early on I committed to this show and would hate to see it cancelled. They definitely left me wanting more.
Like the show, love Alex kingston, i hope they bring both back.
I enjoyed the whole season and found it exciting and intriguing. Hope it returns for a second season.
I thought American Odyssey was a great series. It definitely needs to have a second season so we are not left hanging. As fans, it would be great to see how you develop a true ending or finale to the show. I sincerely hope you make it happen!
This is a great show with emotional intriguing characters. Lots of twists and turns and believable suspense. Need at least one more season to expose the corruption and punish those in power for the unspeakable crimes they commited and give Odelle the praise she deserves for bringing the crime to the public. Let her and the rest of those who exposed the crimes their lives and families back.
the
Season 2!!! come on! bring the show back!
Just wanted to say that I loved watching this show from the beginning. It pulled me in more and more to the covert actions by the government and the emotions from each family in the program. I want to know if the last episode is the end? There are too many loose ends…Please bring this show back .
We want American Odyssey back for season 2….Odelle Ballard knows the truth and the Truth will set her free! Anna Friel did a fantastic job playing this role. We hope she will have the opportunity to take her character to the next level. We want to see her family restored and justice served within the United States and around the world!
I can’t wait to see the new episode each week. Please bring it back. We need to know what happens. Sick of Cliff Hanger Endings.
Wow! Definitely need this to continue!
