It’s been a long time coming, but ABC has officially cancelled Conviction after one season.
The legal drama follows attorney Hayes Morrison (Hayley Atwell), the daughter of a former President, who gets “blackmailed” into examining possible wrongful convictions. The cast also includes Eddie Cahill, Shawn Ashmore, Merrin Dungey, Emily Kinney, Manny Montana, and Daniel Franzese.
Conviction has widely been considered cancelled since it ended its first season earlier this year. First, ABC decided not to order additional episodes of the freshman drama. Then, season one earned poor ratings, averaging a 0.65 in the 18-49 demo and only 3.57 million viewers. Unfortunately, it looks like this legal drama just failed to catch on.
This is Atwell’s second ABC series to be cancelled. Marvel’s Agent Carter lasted for two seasons and 18 episodes.
What do you think? Did you see Conviction? Do you think ABC should’ve given the show another more time?
Great show, network should reconsider! Was hard to know when new episodes were on when they skipped some weeks!
Hayley Atwell is talentless are ‘cursed’ she can only act with Seagal and Lundgren.
I love this show….reconsider please
THAT’S BULLSH@T THAT’S WHY I DON’T WATCH ABC THIS SHOW IS GREAT AND THEY ONLY GIVE THEM 13 EPS TO MAKE OR BREAK!!!!
ABC should reconsider. The cases they took on were great.
This one too!! That’s it I’m all mad about the catch now this one….I’m done.. not watching abc anymore they never give the good ones a chance…hopefully netflix picks one of them or both up
Sad! I really liked that show. I hope the network reconsiders. It was just starting to get good. Please bring it back!!
I think and should reconsider!!! Conviction is an AMAZING show!!!!! The network never gavei a chance by changing the nights & skipping weeks all the time!
I think and d cm year!!! The nightspot ln’t find it!! Please abc it ck!!!!!p
I think ABC should reconsider!! I cannot wait (but have to) for the next week’s Conviction! It is so intense! There are so many stupid sitcoms out there that act like people are really stupid! I mean half of them are on the level of teenage immaturity. And… there is so much horror, evil and gorey stuff put on TV, it’s a shame! JUNK! We are going backwards in the level of communication! I am all for getting away from the I’ll things going on in the world, but I don’t have time for stupid or junk! Conviction is SPICE!… Read more »
Great show. Creative premise. Awesome cast. Disappointed!
Very sad !! Disappointed!! This is a good show !! You need to bring it back for another year !! It has all the right ingredients!! Make it work !!
Hello ABC! Loved the show! Loved the concept, the characters. Strong female lead! Bring it back! Not much else to watch on ABC. Sad…..
What the Heck is wrong with you ABC??
I think it was a Bad decision to not give Conviction another season, or 10!
This wasn’t going to win any Emmys but the formulaic premise was enough to keep me interested. Always been an Eddie Cahill fan. So sad to see they didn’t give it another chamce.
