The CW has dropped Cult from the schedule and cancelled plans for future airings. There are six installments left unaired.
The low-rated thriller series was shipped to Fridays after a disappointing premiere and it’s performed dismally there, even for a Friday show.
There’s no word on what will become of the leftover episodes but CW execs supposedly liked what they saw.
Essentially conceding the cancellation, series creator Rockne S. O’Bannon wrote, “#Cult Sadly true. CW Execs once called the last 5 episodes “outstanding”. I guess too outstanding. You are great, SMART fans. Thx to u all!”
Reruns of The Carrie Diaries and Oh Sit!will fill the timeslot for the foreseeable future.
What do you think? Are you sorry to hear that Cult has been cancelled? Would you purchase the show on DVD to see the unaired episodes?
I just found out about this show and loved the first couple episodes!!! I’d totally buy the DVD, I hope it gets a release date soon…
I loved cult and the last show was such a cliff hanger it was rude and stupid to cancel it at that point
