Sometimes you can’t beat walking the beat. FOX has cancelled Len Wiseman’s APB TV show after just one season.
A high-tech police drama, APB stars Justin Kirk as billionaire engineer Gideon Reeves, who takes charge of the troubled 13th District, after the murder of his friend. The FOX cast also includes: Natalie Martinez, Caitlin Stasey, Ernie Hudson, Taylor Handley, Tamberla Perry, and Nestor Serrano.
APB: A Look at the Ratings
The first season of APB averaged a 0.78 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.43 million viewers. While its total average audience size was respectable (when compared to the rest of FOX’s shows), the demo numbers were far too low for a freshman drama, hence the cancellation. Check out how this new series stacks up against the other FOX TV shows.
What do you think? Did you watch season one of the APB TV series? Should FOX have cancelled or renewed it for a second season?
I really liked this show and am extremely disappointed that not only is it being cancelled, but now I see another show with the same concept coming this Fall. You know these days they make and cancel shows quicker than the public can really make a determination if they like it. 🙁 It’s happening more often than before; why?

LOVED this show – maybe they tested the wrong demographic
Loved the show because it was new and different, there was nothing like it and the stars were awesome. They should bring it back, Fox messed up big time!
Loved it and hate that they always cancel good shows cause they think it’s not good but many people love those shows.
Only watched the first couple of episodes but thought it was a good show. (A good question would be, why didn’t I go back? Too much else to watch maybe.) I liked the social messages of the show that maybe some people did not like: The idea of portraying a good billionaire for a change, or the idea of making the police hi-tech in ways that match their mandate to serve and protect (rather than just throw military surplus equipment at the problem) Police should be able to wear lightweight but protective gear and use effective stun weapons that stop… Read more »
I love this show! I’m so upset and disappointed that they cancelled APB . It always seems like the shows that I fall in love with and get so excited for the next season gets cancelled. They always cancel the good shows and renew the shows that suck. Please give this show a second chance and put it back on! You are officially ruining my love for tv lol!! by cancelled all the shows that I love and leaving on the ones that are in my opinion horrible.
I totally agree I really hope they give this unique show a second chance coz I need to see Gideon Reeve on my screen again
Wrong wrong wrong. Bring back the shoe!!!!

Loved the show! APB… never understand how you could consider to cancel it.
I enjoyed the show and am disappointed that it is not being renewed. I watched it every week.
My husband and I watch or taped the APB each week, loved it. It was different and exciting. Very upsetting!! please bring it back!!! Maybe many people don’t know about the show yet. It sure tops any reality show by far.
