What do you think? Do you like the Damien TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
Me and my husband looked forward to watching this show. It moves quickly and holds your interest and makes you think. We are soooo sick and tired of all the “reality shows” that they keep renewing over and over and the REALITY is that there is NOTHING real about them. Please bring Damien back!! It’s a fun, scary adult show.
I know! The show is an absolute genius…awesome writing/producing/acting…its got it all!!! You gotta ask yourself…..with all the **** and gore on tv….why not DAMIEN???! The tv is nothing but a stagnant cesspool! Nothing could grab my interest on tv anymore…so I hang out on the computer. Damien? That got me glued to the tv! Damien is too awesome a show to cancel. What a bad decision indeed! Howard stern……. the public of all breeds and ages and back grounds, even religous, had no problem accepting him on radio/tv! So really there is no good excuse under the sun for… Read more »
why are the good shows always cancelled?no wonder tv is stuck in hell with all the stupid reality shows and crap. are the writers afraid of using some braincells to continue writing new plots, but totally ok with the ignorance of some girls partying with daddys money and guys looking for “ms. right on a show?
I so agree with you. Half of my new favorite tv shows are cancelled and stupid reality shows are still on air.
I am saddened by the news. There were – in my opinion – definitely some noteworthy things about the show: Bradley James’ performance, the cinematography, sound design, and scenes like the therapy sessions in “Here Is Wisdom” (amongst many others) were outstanding. However, if one looks at the season as a whole, I do feel that the plot development wasn’t the best it could have been… Still, the show had potential and I’m sad to see it go.
Why would this show be canceled? It is amazing. It is the ONLY show I must record to watch in daylight. Please please reconsider and give it a second season
This was an exciting supernatural series. The executives do not give shows a chance to build a following of viewers. Who makes these decisions? Is it the executives of the companies that have commercials sponsoring the series?
I bet if they picked it up they would be blown away by how big a following Damien would have so fast, it would blow SUPERNATURAL and other shows out of the water…their profit margins would literally soar! Unbeleivable! I guess they are as stupid if not more, than the audiences that lay stagnating out there in tv land….
Renew…It scares the hell out of me but I love it. Please please renew
don’t know why all the new shows are being cancelled this year. all that’s on tv are repeats and reality shows finally a few shows that’s good and they cancel them. maybe we should all get rid of tv and listen to the radio at least that wont be cancelled. all the writers must be on strke finally a good one and now its gone
Why they cancel? They rather keep so call reality shows.. there are many of us that enjoy shows like this then stupid reality shows.
Renew- it’s the best horror series in a long time. It should have been marketed more as l didn’t know about it until episode 3 and then had to go backwards after watching a few episodes.
Uh wtf! How could they cancel this show!?!!? Why do they always cancel the good stuff yet we get 5million seasons of teen mom and honey boo!!!!!?!?!?!?!
The show was exciting, enjoyed it, but like Dracula they always like to cancel good shows. Transfer the series over to HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, they won’t cancel the show.
Some of us dont get those pricey overpriced channels dude, nor would we want to….we shouldnt have to pay more to see good writing, nor do we Damien potentiates deserve to have to hide in the shadows to see a show like this, nor should we have to go to a channel reserved for porn to do so….it should be on a regular cable channel so everyone has the ability and chance to see it. Damien belongs to the people now. Bring Him Back!!!!! We want more! We want Damien Thorn to live on……(not trying to ride your wave here,… Read more »
