So disappointed. Had the whole family watching. Sitting and ready for third show only to hear at the last minute it was gone. Poo on NBC. Other T.V. choices don’t hold a candle.

For someone who does not watch much t.v. I scheduled my work around this show because I knew it would be profound. So tonight, I was very disappointed that N.B.C. had canceled this show. This show was powerful and had a wonderful message. I am so sad for the people who could have benefited from something positive. Why? At least release the other episodes.

Tony should do what Oprah did…Get your own cable tv station, and put your show out there. Only about 5% of the public are interested in personal growth.

As someone familiar with Robbin’s work and skills, I think it is a shame that NBC is not willing to risk a little more air time to serious issues that effect everyone. While I believe the first episode was brought down to a level so low that it risked any chance of teaching or being memorable, the second showed the agony that many, if not most, relationships suffer through just for the want of some Tony-style counseling. NBC: Does every minute need to be aimed at the lowest common denominator? Is there any chance of building a following and raising… Read more »

I loved it. Very Disappointed!!!

tony robbins show “Breakthrough” was inspiring & uplifting – tony’s strategies are a great example of how people can turn their lives around in 30 days with his coaching – if ever there was time for a positive influence in television viewing with all the negative currently being aired nbc had an opportunity to step up & set a new standard to help support in creating a compelling future for many who need this in their world today

I am shocked to hear that NBC canceled this totally rockin’, all inspiring, give-mankind-hope show!!! This is typical of American TV though. Seems as though only the garbage gets good ratings. What does that say about us as Americans? (Not me of course, I LOVED the shows and want a lot more of them.) This is perhaps why we are where we are as a nation… depressed, downtrotten, hopeless, broke, and living in our own pool of pity. Tony brings hope (not dope) to those who feel hopeless and opportunity for growth. Let’s ban together America and get Tony back… Read more »

If people don’t know about a show, they can’t watch it. There is a MASSIVE fan base for this show, but it is brand new and it is starting off it’s season in summer… they needed to just put it in a less competitive time-slot, make sure they could keep producing under budget, and then let the sparks catch flame. Given a chance, this showed could still be a very big, and very long running, success.

Ratings run the business. But let’s face it. Only 5-10% of the population actively does something to improve their lives.
America is much more interested in their growing belly buttons as long as someone else pays the tab.
Why do I say this? Very close to 50% of the population is working for the government or on the public dole.

I agree with Melody-Rose and most of the other people who’ve commented already. I don’t think I ever saw an ad for the show, and I heard about it only through Tony Robbins’ company (I was invited to be in the audience during the live taped ending for the episodes, and I was there for some of them). It seems that the people who actually saw the show liked it, but not enough people saw it. It’s almost as if NBC was counting on Tony Robbins to do all the promotion work for them. I understand there were eight episodes… Read more »

Like I’ve been saying on Facebook, NBC didn’t give this show a chance. When ABC put on Extreme Makeover Home Edition, they let the audience build. Now, look at their following. I hardly ever watch NBC, and it feels like it might be do to their short-sidedness. Seems like their execs are into quick success/fast buck!

There definitely was not enough advertisement. I did not realize Tony had a show. Thank goodness my husband taped one of the shows, and I finally had a chance to sit down to watch the show last night and I loved it. It is a shame that they pulled the show so fast, there are other ways to resolve slow viewership than to immediately pull the show. Please bring Tony’s show back and this time promote, promote, promote on television, radio, newsprint and websites.

Thanks.

It baffles me that people just want to watch garbage like Jersey Shore, Housewives, or more reality junk!! When in fact Breakthrough was actually a real breakthrough from the poison that we see on Television on a daily basis!! It makes no sense not to give Breakthrough a chance, but just goes to show ignorance is bliss!!!! NBC you owe it to the viewers of breakthrough to air the rest of the episodes on line!!!

I was in shock that it was cancelled! I love the show and I was hoping to continue to watch it. I’m hoping they will let people see the rest of the vids. I know I would like to see em, no point in burning em! It’s sad, I love Tony he has done an excellent job!

Tony Robbins is about money. His personal power focuses on the ego and attracting abundance. In essence…it helps some people change their ego-centric lives but not grow spiritually. This show as well as his appeal is not reaching people where it counts.
