Back in the 1980s, ABC and CBS had hit shows that revolved around the oil business — Dynasty and Dallas — and each ran for many seasons. Now, the alphabet network is hoping to strike it rich with a new show called Blood & Oil. Will this series be a hit or a flop? Cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On Blood & Oil, young couple Billy (Chace Crawford) and Cody LeFever (Rebecca Rittenhouse) move to Williston, North Dakota to seek their fortune. Billy’s drive attracts the attention of oil barron Hap Briggs (Don Johnson) and Hap takes him under his wing, much to the dismay of Hap’s son Wick (Scott Michael Foster). The rest of the cast includes Amber Valletta, Adan Canto, India de Beaufort, Miranda Rae Mayo, and Delroy Lindo.

What do you think? Do you still like the Blood & Oil TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please don’t cancel…love this show!
I’m sad the network cancelled blood and oil! I loved the drama and soap opera feel of this show! I’m so over all the sci-fi murder mystery crap they push and push! I looked forward to a glass of wine on Sunday evenings and waiting to see what drama would unfold! Listen to the fans, ABC!
I truly loved that show, Don Johnson is great! I’ve been looking for every week but nothing. I’m sick of all the crappy democrat debates on when we have a great show to watch! We need more of this series! It’s the only time I watch your channel so looks like I drop it all the way!. Sick of all the liberal agendas!
Love this!!!! Disappointed if it really is cancelled.

Please keep this show on!!! This is better to watch than some **** about zombies.
I really loved this show, can’t believe it’s canceled.
Keep it on!!!!
Any decent drama these days gets cancelled. Whether it was Cane (Latino family running rum company), the return of Dallas, etc. Blood and Oil is just another decent show cancelled. Yet crappy reality shows continue to run on television because they are cheap to produce. TV executives need their heads axed off.
I love this show!!! Please don’t end it.
My husband and I both love the show. It’s different than all the CSI shows . Please save it!
Please keep this show it’s awesome !!!!!! I look forward to watching it every week!!!!!!!
I really like Blood&Oil . This just really sucks if you cancel. I look for it every week.
