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?
I HAVE WATCHED THIS ODYSSEY WITH A BUNCH OF FRIENDS AND LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT. ALL OF US WATCHED THIS TOGETHER. I WISH NETFLEX WILL CONTINUE ON WITH THIS SERIES.
Please hurry with season 2 brilliant show really disappointed it mAy not happen
I’m very disappointed. I felt it was one of the best shows of the season. I hope
it wasn’t cancelled because someone felt it was not politically correct.
So disappointing that a show with an intelligent, current and compelling plot, strong female lead and supporting cast and excellent writing. Is cancelled. Reality TV seems to reign and TV networks are now catering to the dumbing down of America Unfortunate….and embarrassing.
I can’t figure out why this show was cancelled and I don’t believe it was because their was a
lack of viewers or ratings!! Did someone not get enough money to keep this show alive??
Obviously no one cares about the many people watching the show. Disgusted!

I have been waiting anxiously for the new season of American Odyssey to start and cannot believe it has been cancelled. after watching it for a whole season the viewers are now left hanging.
I find this hard to believe. This was an amazing TV show. It had a great story line and really gave us great insight to a corrupt government while honoring our true heroes. Come on NBC! We really need this show especially now. I don’t believe you promoted the series enough and can’t believe you’re giving up on it.
Don’t understand why on earth this is not returning !!! It is fab and now we are left hanging !!!
instead of cancelling a great & entertaining show, why not cancel all your inane,stupid,subinteligent sitcoms!!!!!!
My boyfriend and I love this show. We looked forward to watching it every Sunday night. Please bring it back for a second season
please bring back American Odyssey….we got hooked to the series.
my family, friends and I got hooked to it…we discusses the series the day after showing an episode.
its not right that you leave us hanging.
It’s great show it was very impressed, so we waiting, may will release
Isn’t that just like NBC they get a great show and the cancel it. Sigh, not the first time.
I agree it is a great show and should not be cancelled.
Typical of NBC. Lack of foresight, lack of managerial prowess, lack of care and hopefully in the future, lack of viewers
