What do you think? Do you like the Connecting… TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Connecting has been cancelled by Peacock.
Bring the show connecting back. It has and is getting me through this pandemic
I loved this show. Different, funny, poignant. Very disappointed in NBC.
I loved this series and am super sad that it was cancelled. It was relatable and I really am disappointed that there are only 8 episodes and it was cancelled.
I watched the pilot of connecting and it was the dullest show I ever saw. It was basically people talking to one another over video. After 10 minutes I couldn’t take it anymore so I changed the channel. I hope this show is cancelled soon.
