Well, that was quick. After just two weeks, CBS has pulled their new Doubt TV show from the Wednesday schedule. Has the series been cancelled? Will it be back?
The Doubt TV show stars Katherine Heigl as Sadie Ellis; Elliot Gould as Isaiah Roth; Laverne Cox as Cameron Wirth; Dreama Walker as Tiffany Simon; and Kobi Libii as Nick Brady. Sadie is a brilliant attorney who starts to fall for her charismatic client. Pediatric surgeon Billy Brennan (Steven Pasquale) was recently accused of murdering his girlfriend, 24 years ago. Sadie has to hide her growing feelings from everyone, including her close friend and colleague, Albert Cobb (Dulé Hill). Getting involved with her client could put Sadie’s career and happiness at risk — particularly if Billy is found guilty. She must work all the harder to prove reasonable doubt, even while she has some doubts of her own.
When the series debuted two weeks ago, there was no “doubt” that the new CBS drama series was already in trouble. The premiere attracted a meager 0.76 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 5.31 million viewers. This week’s installment drew a 0.60 rating with 4.03 million. Those figures are just too low for “the most-watched network” and CBS has now pulled Doubt from the schedule.
On March 1st, Doubt will be replaced by a rerun of Bull and, on March 8th, CBS will launch the second season of Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders. While CBS has not officially cancelled Doubt, there’s no chance that they’ll be renewing it for a second season.
The network ordered 13 episodes of Doubt and all of them have reportedly been completed. Prior to the series being pulled, CBS had only scheduled four more installments of Doubt. In the past, CBS has burned off leftover episodes of cancelled series on Saturday nights over the summer months.
What do you think? Do you like the Doubt TV show? Do you think that CBS should cancel the series? Would you watch the remaining episodes?
Please don’t cancel this show. I love the cast. One of the better shows that is on.
I just found the show, and not happy that it is going to be cancelled. I appreciated the honest approach to face your wrongs you have done and the whole approach to the show. Shame on those who make the decision to cancel. I would give it more time.
This is a real good show. Definitely renew it. What’s wrong with u people that make these decisions? Compared to some of the junk in TV Doubt is st the top of my list to renew.
This show absolutely needs to be renewed. There are so many cliffhangers! Put it on next summer when everything else is just reruns!
I love this show! Please don’t cancel it! The acting is great and the story line keeps you wanting more! I would watch season 2!
A good show not given a chance. Ending it was another example of irrational network decision making.
I think the show is excellent and shouldn’t been pulled.
Please renew. It’s a great show being aired at a bad time for 18 to 25 year olds. They aren’t home on a Saturday night! But I am and I love this program.
My husband and I just started watching this show. My adrenaline was running high when Billy decided to take the stand. This show keeps me on the edge of my seat. Please don’t cancel.
I love this show, no one Evers gives people to watch, before they cancel. It needs to stay on!
My wife and I really like the show, of course we’re over 60 and don’t fit into the networks demos, so what do we know. We refuse to watch most of the reality TV shows.
I think doubt should come back for a second season. Please bring it back
Yes I feel doubt should come back for a second season
I think doubt should come back
I really enjoy this show.
