After pulling Day Break from the ABC primetime schedule in December, the network said that it would release the remaining seven episodes online. Fans were shocked by the cancellation and then enraged when the episodes didn’t appear on the ABC website (reportedly due to online music rights issues). Then, to add fuel to the fire, the Day Break page was removed for the network site. Last week, ABC Entertainment President Stephen McPhearson announced that the remaining episodes would be released by late February at the latest. It now appears Day Break fans finally have a pleasant surprise.
ABC has now said that the previously aired episodes, as well as three new episodes will be streamed from ABC.com starting January 29th. A new episode will then be posted each Monday afterwards until all 13 episodes in the series have been released online. The series finale will be available on February 19th. It’s unclear if older episodes will be pulled as the new ones are made available (as NBC did with Kidnapped).
If, for whatever reason, you can’t view these Day Break episodes online and/or you’d like to see Detective Hopper’s story continue past the single season of Day Break, stop by our online petition and sign it. We’ll be sending it off to the network, production companies and Taye Diggs soon. Stay tuned!
BRING IT BACK DAMNIT!!!! I enjoyed the show and the enjoyed the man. What else is there to say
Can’t wait till the 29th. Wife and I really did enjoy the show and was were mad when it was cancelled.
we were mad when u found out it was’ent on we were injoying the perimer when it sudenly got pulled from abc….. :[
It’s amazing that a company pulls a great show and there are still three days a week when I have nothing to watch!Why not move it to another day!
Please bring Day Break Back the first 6 episodes were fantastic and I miss it so much. It’s as good as the 24 series. I’m in the UK and there are a few people over here that miss watching the show aswell.
Please Please Please bring it back ABC.
I really enjoyed the show and was so mad when it was abruptly cancelled. It was only a 13 episode show that was in a tough position since it started airing during the holiday season. I remember when a network would stick with a show and let it find it’s audience, like NBC did with the early seasons of Seinfeld. With the shooting already completed, ABC could have changed the time slot to accomodate the lower ratings and loyal fans would have followed. No one is going to stick around for reruns of Jim Belushi’s show (see I can’t even… Read more »
We loved this show! The ratings were good and my wife and I were loyal viewers. We fell for all of the advertising hype two-months in advance, then ABC yanks it after 4 great episodes! What, does ABC expect us to watch there replacements on Wednesday night at 9? No, I don’t think so! It’s bad enough that we have to put up with more and more comercial interuptions on top of pay TV, but this takes the cake! Did ABC even notice the great actors and compeling story line?
The Show was aweasome, The twist and turns. I know it may be hard to keep the viewers interested as the show gets longer. But i mean its a good show. You know just make his correction of one day oe episode. Like 24 kinda, GREAT SHOW BRING IT BACK ABC
I was shocked to see that ABC pulled Day Break. What a great show. I was hooked and looking forward to the next episode when suddenly ….GONE. My favorite episode was “What if the snook is awakened”. THAT was the coolest.
Unfortunately this does us in Canada no good since we will not be able to view it on the ABC website
This show was awesome! How can the networks keep asking us to watch new TV shows, if they are going to yank them off the air before they are finished?
Of course they had low ratings, isn’t that why they took Lost off the air for the holiday season? They were setting themselves up for failure before they got started!
Bring this show back, or I will delete ABC from my channels!
Was stunned this fine series was pulled. Compared to other fare on ABC, someone should be fired. I watch shows like LOST and DAY BREAK because the acting sparks, and the writing delivers surprises. If I can say ‘Whoa! Didn’t see that one coming!’ more than twice an episode, then my time with a show is well spent. As a baby boomer who grew up with TV, I can usually figure the end of a show 10 minutes into it. Writers have to work harder to keep my interest. The writing, concept and execution of this series was amazing. Unlike… Read more »
I just checked out ABC’s website and there it was. Hopefully, more people find out about this. Sorry to hear about those outside the US. Go sign the petition on this site so they’ll release it on DVD. Click on that “Save Day Break” button above.
I was really enjoying the show prior to its cancellation. Unfortunately if ABC releases it only online I don’t think the viewers here in Canada will be able to watch it.
I loved the show (DayBreak) I really can’t believe they pulled it. Will it ever come back????
