(ABC / Giovanni Rufino)
Let’s not fool ourselves. The Deception TV show has been cancelled by ABC after just one season. The mid-season replacement made its debut on March 11, 2018, but even smoke and mirrors couldn’t disguise its lackluster Nielsen ratings performance.
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. Cameron is rocketing to the top, when scandal derails his show and his twin’s life. Now, this magician uses his tradecraft to help the Feds apprehend some of the most elusive criminals in the world and hopes to prove his brother, Jonathan (Cutmore-Scott), is an innocent man.
Jack Cutmore-Scott is an appealing actor. So far though, it seems he hasn’t found just the right vehicle. This is his second series in as many years not to survive past its freshman outing. Fox cancelled his comedy, Cooper Barrett’s Guide to Surviving Life after just one season in 2016.

What do you think? Did you enjoy season one of the Deception TV series. Should ABC have cancelled or renewed this TV show for season two?
It is such a shame to cancelled such a mind-thrilling tv show….i’v been patiently waited till the end of the episodes for what, just to found out that there will be no season 2, ouhh come on! I’v never been this serious about a tv show before and damn, Deception is the best i’v watched so far….please follow up the story….im a Malaysian and im giving my HARD YES on Deception for Season 2!!!!
After all, viewers need to find out what happen to Cameron Black now, dont we??
Or is it just me?? Hmmm
#season2 #deception #porfavor #miamor
How hell they can cancel it!!!
I love this show I really think they should make a season two. Season one was amazing
This breaks my heart! My kids and I look forward to Deception every Sunday and was sad when the season finale sleep aired. We got hooked and now it isn’t going to be brought back for season 2! My son literally had tears in his eyes when I told him they cancelled it!! I truly hope another station picks it up!
Please make season2 . my whole family love this season.this TV show is the best TV show
loved this show. Must be a season 2
Such a shame to cancell such a great show. Of course, I should know better than to get hooked on an ABC show. Every time I do it gets cancelled. The fact that it ended in a cliffhanger makes it even more painful. Hopefully another network will pick it up.
Yeah. Just like Quantico. I really liked it but they just had to cancel it. Totally unfair
Loved the show
I loved this show. Very entertaining. One of my favorites.
I truly, madly, deeply love Deception, I don’t love just the actors, I really enjoy the whole story and turn-arounds. Please, just please, give Deception a second chance ( and a second season ) and if you keep this good scenario, it will have a brilliant succes !
Do not cancel this show deception.i look forward to season 2
You should not have cancelled deception.i enjoyed watching this show and was looking forward to season 2….
Was one of the best new shows out there. My wife and I watched every show, and was looking forward to season two. How disappointing to see a great show cancelled…ABC is making a huge mistake by not renewing it!!! We may just stop watching ABC because every time we get hooked on a show they cancel it.
Finally, something worth watching on TV, and what happens to it? It gets canceled. Was always looking forward to watching Deception. Great show, and it will be missed! At least it was left open for the possibility of renewal.
Please tell me this excellent show isn’t being replaced by another mindless game show or worse! It’s a smart show with excellent actors. Please, ABC, think this through again!!
