An ABC crime drama from creator Chris Fedak, Deception stars Jack Cutmore-Scott as illusionist Cameron Black, with Ilfenesh Hadera, Lenora Crichlow, Amaury Nolasco, Justin Chon, Laila Robins, and Vinnie Jones. With big shows in Vegas and New York, Cameron is rocketing to the top, when scandal derails his show and his twin’s life.

What do you think? Were you hoping that the Deception TV show would be renewed for season two? Are you sorry that ABC cancelled this TV series, instead?
I am beyond sad that you are cancelling “Deception”!!! There are so few shows that are really worth watching!! Why don’t you cancel the likes of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette? They are unbelievably trashy, sleazy and absolutely worthless. ( sorry…I think the show absolutely debases positive human qualities…. hanging out with different partners at a time to decide which one best suits them??? That’s shameful! BRING BACK DECEPTION PLEEEAAASE!!!!Bring ABC back to good standards!!!!!
Please DO NOT CANCEL!!! It’s a great show…Why do yall insist on taking the good shows off & leaving the dumb ones on, makes no sense!! I will not watch another show on ABC again!!!
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL THIS SHOW AS IT IS AMONG THE BEST OF THE NEW SHOWS. GIVE A LITTLE TIME TO FIND ITS FOOTING. GREAT SHOW
Really?! I’ve had it with ABC. I’ll invest NO more time in ANY ABC show, because it’s clear they invest less than I do. I’m sick of being left hangingl I don’t know who makes their programming decisions, but it’s apparrently an ADHD teenager. ABC premiers lots of great shows only to suddenly end them. Is there anyone not stupid among the decision-making persons at ABC?
Great show. Bring it back! Give it a chance to find it’s audience.
ABC needs to stop canceling great shows after just one season! It’s ridiculous! The Crossing and Deception are really great shows, and they deserve to be renewed for several more seasons! If ABC continues to cancel great shows, I will never watch their shows again!
I so want it to be renewed!! Its a great show! I think it definitely has the potential to be renewed. #FingersCrossed
One of the most awesome TV shows that I have ever watched
Please don’t cancel Deception, my husband, daughter and I really love this show and Jack Cuttmore Scott, give it a chance after all look how long they’ve kept shows like The Simpson’s and Family Guy and they’re not even close to as good as Deception.
My husband and I love this show, and Jack-Cutmore Scott. Please don’t cancel it.
This is a great show. Every time a great show comes on it gets cancelled before it has even been given a chance. Not fair. Let it have a second season to find its niche.
I totally agree! Give it a chance! This show is good and once people get exposed it will spread like wild fire! Deception needs to be renewed!!
My husband and I love this show. The cast works very well together. Great storyline and it keeps you guessing. The illusions and humor also add to the show.
The show got stronger with each episode. My daughter and my 11 year old grandson watch it together and he can’t wait till the next episode. He likes discussing it with his mother and tries to predict what will happen next,and how a problem might be solved. This is what we need.The show is great. If the writers keep making the storyline stronger as they have… it should stay
Just discovered this show today and have been binge watching it on the ABC app. I really hope that it is renewed for a second season. It’s very entertaining and kept me hooked from beginning to end.
I like this show a lot. Just binge watched the whole season to date. Glad to see so many future episodes, just hope ABC airs them. Can only hope for Season two.
Please bring this show back for a 2nd season! We love it!! The cast, the chemistry, the magic, all of it!!
I love love love the show please bring it back waiting for season 2
