The doctor is out. There won’t be a second season of the Complications TV show. USA Network has decided to cancel the drama series after one season of 10 episodes.
Complications follows a disillusioned suburban doctor (Jason O’Mara) who’s still dealing with the emotional effects of his young daughter’s death from cancer. He unexpectedly becomes a vigilante hero when he intervenes in a drive-by shooting, saving a 12-year-old boy’s life. The rest of the cast includes Jessica Szohr, Lauren Stamile, Chris Chalk, Beth Riesgraf, and RonReaco Lee.
The series got off to a lackluster start in the ratings in late June with a 0.41 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 1.91 million viewers. Viewership saw a big drop in week two and remained pretty poor for the rest of the season. The 10 episodes ended up averaging a 0.35 in the demo with 1.44 million.
Except for Suits, all of USA’s existing dramas have been way down year-to-year and none of their new ones have been a hit in the ratings (including Mr. Robot).
Despite Complications’ ratings challenges, USA was still considering bringing the show back for a second season. Deadline reports that execs had secured a four-day extension on the cast contracts while they made their final decision. Execs tried to work out an economically feasable deal with Fox 21 TV Studios for a second season but, in the end, it didn’t happen.
The final episode of Complications aired on August 13th.
What do you think? Did you like the Complications TV show? Do you think that it should have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season, perhaps on another channel?
Well this sucks ! We were just talking about when season 2 of Complications will start, only to find out it is cancelled. Ridiculous ! It was a super intense, brilliantly written, series. Give it a chance for heaven sake ! Please bring it back !!
I am saddened to learn that there will not be a season 2 of Complications! Why? It was a great show and I started so many of my family and friends to watching…. it must come back!!!!
Are you kidding me? It has been a long time ago since I sat at the end of my chair. It must come back!
I loved the show! I watched and recorded it every Thursday! I would definitely like for the network to reconsider about a second season!!
I loved this show! I hate that they are not returning for a second season. Bring back Complications!!!!!!
We are very sorry to find out that Complications will not be back for a second season. We certainly would have watched. This was a good show that had all of the elements – humor, suspense, passion, violence.

USA ‘s shows might do better if they pushed them as much as Suits. Very disappointed complications will not be returning. It was one of our favorites from last season.
I am really disappointed. I’m from Brazil and was getting used to this Doc and his crazy nurse. I was watching it online and loving the drama. Why did they have to cancel it?
I am really disappointed learn there is won’t be a 2nd season of Complications…..Me, and my family loved this show and was eagerly looking forward to the season 2…..Don’t give up on this show ratings will definitely increase……especially when I get through telling the world how great this show is!!!!!
Super disappointing!! Me and my mom loved this show. Bring it back!!
We loved this show and told everyone about it. The writing was gre6st, very intense to watch. So mad……

THERE MUST BE A SECOND SEASON!!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS BESIDES BREAKING BAD, THE WIRE, BLINDSPOT! THE RATINGS WILL GO UP!!!!!!! YOU QUIT TOO SOON…..COMPARED TO COMPLICATIONS, SUITS SUCKS!!!!!
I would love to see another season of Complications. It’s a little far fetched but always very exciting and fun to watch. Please reconsider and bring it back.
