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?
This was a great show was really looking forward to Wednesday nights to view it there are so many shows on that don’t interest me but this one was great! the cast were so interesting and looked,like this was going to be a great show ! I wish CBS would reconsider and bring it back ! At least give it a fighting chance !
I was really enjoying this show and was trying to find out why it wasn’t on last week and why it’s not on the schedule for this week. I would definitely continue to watch this show if it doesn’t get permanently cancelled.
I really liked this show and absolutely love Katherine Heigl! I thought the show had some meat to it and some humor. All of the actors were very solid. I’m really sorry that CBS won’t be keeping this show!
I loved the show couldn’t wait to see the next episodes. They do cancel good shows but will keep crap shows
Why do great shows get cancelled…and crap like The Bachelor and others still are on?
agree
finally get something i like and its cancelled. back to Netflix!
I am sooo upset that doubt has been cancelled. I love all the actors and love the story line. Now I have to guess what happened next…please bring it back!!
I’d watch it and did. Thought it was pretty good start —it needs time to find more viewers.
I really liked this show and was looking forward to future ones…..it had a good story line and Katherine Heigl is a great actress. Too may shows are all alike, and they cancel the better ones and keep all the crap. Please keep this show going.
Laverne Cox was amazing! I don’t understand why they don’t give it more time.
Bull is just the same type of show you see everywhere – an arrogant dude being smarter than everyone else.
Thanks to all tasteful viewers for NOT watching this awful show. We got it canceled!
I’m ready for more episodes. I will watch if it comes back on.
I like the show and I’d watch it if it came back on. It’s like the new kid at school, we have to give the show a better.
I like the show, it’s passionate and keeps me on the edge of me seat. Did he do it or didn’t he? Will relationships crumble or rise to the challenge? Is the risk they are taking work it? This show has the potential to go the distance. Please don’t leave us at a cliff hanger, those are the worst. You have my view if/when the show comes back. Hey, I just watched both episodes back to back and I’m ready for more! The laywers in this show don’t quite that easy . I can only hope CBS takes the risk… Read more »
I like the show, it’s passionate and keeps me on the edge of my seat. Did he do it or didn’t he? Will their relationship become a romantic one? Is the risk they are taking worth it? This show has the potential to go the distance. Please don’t leave us at a cliff hanger, those are the worst. You have my view if the show comes back. Hey, I even watched the 2 episodes back to back and I’m ready for more!
I was starting to really like that show! I don’t know why they didn’t just give it a chance and promote it more so that their audience could grow? This was a promising show with good actors.
I liked the show too. I t held my interest, no gory scenes. I really got into the story line, and the acting was great too. I hope they bring it back.
