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?
My husband and I both loved this show. It always seems that you find a show that you enjoy, and then it is canceled. This show was so modern time, and really held your interest. Not some sex show that had no ties to the story line. We are older viewers, however, we need some good shows to watch as well. SICK of reality shows!!!!!! Who cares about Big Brother!! Please keep this show for another season. Put some cast members on the Today Show, and see what the reaction is. I did not see any advertisements for the show… Read more »
Please do another season. Must get Aslam to USA & Jail Glen.
Love this show…please don’t cancel!!
This is very well the best show on TV right now. My entire family lives it. It has intrigue and fanatic character development. Please……again, please, bring this show back!
I love this show, it really makes you look at the politics and really makes you think about what REALLY goes on. Maybe if they were to hype it more and give it some PA more people would be aware of the show. They sure push some absolutely awful programs.
Give this one a real chance-please!!
This show is well written, correction to my above remark. Please bring it back, there’s so little on TV worth watching anymore
My husband and I love this show! It is overly well written and the characters are awesome. Hope to see it back
There are very few shows I even watch nowadays. It has to be special for me to stick with every episode the entire season and begging for more. I am 46 and love the show. Please bring back next season. We need a quality show to look forward to next season. Theres alot of less than appealing shows on but somehow this one is put into question. Season 2 we want you.
My wife and I love this show. Great acting and script. Hope we see a season two. If not on NBC then maybe on USA. We really want to see the story line played out all the way.
We love this program, Great characters and great writing. Every week we wish the show would continue longer. We can’t wait until the next episode airs to see what happens. Would be very disappointed if canceled.
Oh please bring back this show , my husband & I have never missed an episode , it is a very good story line & the actors are fantastic & we are ABSOLUTELY HOOKED ! You must bring it back for a second season, you left us all up in the air ! My Hubby says we will never watch anything ever again on NBC if you dont renew this show !
Keep American Odyssey going for another season (at least). A great watch!
Series is genuinely interesting, story line and cast very compelling. Please don’t cancel this excellent show. It deserves every chance to succeed.
Please don’t cancel this show. Why is the emphasis in television programming geared towards the under 30 crowd? When I was that age I never watched television, couldn’t tell you what was on at any time, ever. It’s us older folks who are your audience, why not looking seen to us now?
We need second series of American Odyssey. One of the best series in a long while, all my family loved it. Great acting fab story line.
