It looks like there won’t be a second season for NBC’s Deception. Deadline is reporting that the NBC TV series has been cancelled and is one of the first of the peacock’s shows to get the bad news.
On Deception, a wealthy party girl has been mysteriously murdered. Her childhood friend, now a San Francisco narcotics detective, is convinced by her former partner to go undercover into the wealthy world she thought she’d left behind. The cast includes Laz Alonso, Meagan Good, Victor Garber, Katherine LaNasa, Tate Donovan, Wes Brown, and Ella Rae Peck.
The series debuted in January to a 2.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.66 million total viewers. Those weren’t great numbers but, for NBC, they’d be enough.
The ratings dropped by more than 20% in week two and they kept going down in subsequent weeks. During the course of its 11 week run, Deception fell as low as a 1.1 in the demo and 3.08 million viewers.
Those numbers are terrible and just couldn’t justify bringing the show back for a second season. Unfortunately, the defacto series finale, which aired on March 18th, left viewers with plenty of unanswered questions.
What do you think? Are you sorry that Deception has been cancelled? Why do you think it didn’t catch on?
I hope some network picks this show up, loved it and it left u hanging at the end please someone pick it up
Very sad to see this one go, I liked the plot and was looking forward to the new season.
What would it take for this show to be brought back? My husband and I were hooked every week. We were definitely looking forward to season 2. Too many unanswered question. Maybe Oprah can pick it up on own???
Please bring it back!!!

They need to bring this show back! I am so tired of reality tv and this was the one show I could look forward to seeing that wasn’t reality and it was entertaining. Why don’t they just change the day and time??? Makes more sense then to completely cancel it. It probably conflicted with other shows on the day! Bring it back please!
Please bring it back. Love this show. Want to know what happen and what will happen. Please bring back.
