Has Beowulf been axed? The Sun reports that the Esquire series, which airs on ITV in the U.K., has been cancelled.
Beowulf premiered in the United States on January 23rd.
The fantasy drama is based on the Anglo-Saxon epic poem of the same name. In the series, Kieran Bew stars as the titular warrior, who is tasked with saving the kingdom from invading evils. William Hurt, Joanne Whalley, and Ed Speleers also star.
The Sun reports the series has been terminated due to poor ratings. In the U.K., the first season finale only drew in 1.4 million viewers. At the moment, neither ITV nor Esquire have made an official comment regarding the series’ cancellation.
What do you think? Have you seen Beowulf? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed?
Beowulf season 1 was awesome. I definately think it is as good as Game of Thrones I do not understand why it was cancelled? I wish there were many more seasons to watch.
What an amazing series, Please consider doing doing Season 2
This was a great series! A shame it was cancelled!
This series is awesome! I can’t believe there is only 1 season! Poor ratings? Really???? This has the potential to have many seasons.
This show is amazing. I can’t believe there is only one season. How has Netflix or Amazon not continued on with it.
Beowulf was a GREAT SERIES….. WTF…. the reviewers responsible for it’s demise should be composted as they are obviously short on grey matter.
I hope Amazon Prime takes up the sword anb moves forward with season two and three….
Please bring Beowulf back i truly enjoyed it here in america
Please pick up where it left off!! It had a great story and characters! I felt like i was watching a story written by J.R.R Tolkien himself!!
Renewed
i love the show.. season 2 please……..!
This version of Beowulf was very enjoyable. The storyline was well thought out and much more feasible than the typical superman portrayal of Beowulf. The ending episode left me craving for more. Please continue.
This show is amazing. I think the only reason it was cancelled was because it was released on the wrong network. Epic and extremely well done…so bummed when I heard it was cancelled. I would love if Netflix or Amazon bought the rights and re-released it. Such a quality creation
I hope this show returns watching reruns now.
I love the show I think it’s fantastic and there’s no way it should be canceled
I love this show..please give us season 2..
This show waa kick ass i loved it please make a number two
