What do you think? Do you like the Damien TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
I love this show!! Please bring it back!!! PLEASE!!!
Please bring this show back. I absolutely loved it
Bring this show back!!
I had never heard of this show so obviously more needed to be spent on promoting it. Absolutely stunning and amazing series. Fantastic story, unbelievable acting. Definitely shoiuld be brought back.
I loved this show! i do not understand why it was cancelled. Please bring it back!
I must respond to the network knuckleheads who made the stupid decision to cancel Damien after the first season. Apparently, these pinheads are only looking at statistical data to know a good series when they see one. I wonder if anyone there has ever considered allowing a series to grow on it’s audience? Allowing the word of mouth to circulate and do a better job in marketing? Apparently not! What you don’t know is there is a HUGE interest in the dynamics of Biblical/End Times lore! There are many connections and conjecture which mirror the daily events we currently witness… Read more »
CANCELED???!!! Are they CRAZY???? The fact that someone FINALLY did a show on The Omen series was great, and they cancel after the 1st season…. does NOT make any sense… They should at least try to sell it off, and maybe someone else will pick it up. One of the best new shows! Great cast and story lines, what a loss to us fans. So sad.
Do not cancel this show.
Wait what???? They cancelled this show?? Why?it was different and tense and left us wondering what happens next! Bring it back. At least have the decency to tie everything up at the end
I think it was a great show for anyone who watched the Omen movies do Not cancel this show
Its amazing! What I see is DAMIEN already has a cult following! What a profitable thing to expand upon……………how stupid to deny its potential to make money and create a huge audience revenue from diversified back grounds. They must think that we are a 1% group of hideous scary satanists or something! Sounds to me like Damien brings into itself a mass audience of diversified people.And it isnt even playing because the dumbass network dropped it! It is as stupid a thing to do as if a show like SEINFELD was dropped……..what a bad call that wouldve been! What a… Read more »
“There is nothing new under the sun”. That has always been true! Old ideas on repeat redressed, renamed, and suited to the next generation! Everything from Bedrock to Space, the final fronteir! I stopped watching tv because it all sucks! How many different ways can we kill a zombie? I ask, how long can we watch the same dribble every week?! That was, until I saw DAMIEN…OMG!!!! What a fresh new idea…what an awesome show…and the characters and plot…..AWESOME!!!! Now Ive been waiting with abated breath for it to come back on, and Im told that A&E dropped it because… Read more »
I wantndamien the show back on. Love the show want moreVgWl
I am so very disappointed to see this show cancelled. It quickly moved up the list of my favorite shows, and one I can watch over and over. There are so many unanswered questions! I would like to see the show picked up by another network and given the kind of advertising it deserves to bring in an audience. I just cant believe and original show like Damien gets the boot when there are a dozen or more shows that are terrible and are allowed to stay on. I feel as though my best friend moved away.
i agree with u why are this pple all of the time they cancel nice series without any proper reason why
It is because these networks are taking payouts from special interest groups who dont want the public to be swayed by the show because it could cost those groups huge revenues if people start looking at things differently like religon and all the profit it makes off the backs of common folk who never see it for the sham it is! And Damien is the show that threatens these huge religous corporations!!!! Evil/sex/violence sells…..If DAMIEN is so ‘evil’, then why aint He selling????????? Bribes and payouts, that is why!
I was excited to see a season 2 and when i found out it was cancelled, i was very disappointed. I thought the show was brilliant; there is still so much to explain and share when it comes to the future (and past) of Damien Thorn. Cancelling the show while keeping all these stupid reality shows was a horrible call…shows what most of america truly feeds off of….drama and stupidity.
