Cristela: ABC Sitcom Cancelled; No Season Two

Cristela TV show on ABC canceled, no season 2It looks like Cristela Hernandez has a bright future ahead of her — unfortunately the same can’t be said for the Cristela TV show. ABC has cancelled the sitcom after one season of 22 episodes.

On Cristela, a young Mexican-American woman (Cristela Alonzo) works to become an attorney while juggling her responsibilities to her traditional family. The rest of the cast includes Maria Canals-Barrera, Carlos Ponce, Terri Hoyos, Gabriel Iglesias, Sam McMurray, Justine Lupe, and Andrew Leeds.

The sitcom debuted in October 2015 and attracted a 1.3 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.5 million viewers. That was a decent start for a Friday night show but the ratings lost quite a bit of steam over the course of the season, falling as low as a 0.8 demo rating with 4.1 million viewers.

Those numbers weren’t good enough to mandate a second season so ABC has decided to cancel Cristela instead. The final episode aired on April 17th.
