As fans may already know, CBS has pulled the Doubt TV show from their schedule after only two episodes, making the show effectively cancelled. What do you think? Did the network end the series too soon?
The legal drama stars Katherine Heigl as Sadie Ellis, an ambitious attorney who falls for one of her clients, a pediatric surgeon accused of murdering his girlfriend. The cast also includes Steven Pasquale, Dulé Hill, Laverne Cox, Elliot Gould, and Dreama Walker.
Doubt premiered on February 15th to a lackluster 0.76 rating in the 18-49 demo and 5.31 million viewers — very low numbers for a CBS show. The series’ second episode dropped even further in the ratings, bringing in a 0.55 rating in the 18-49 demo and 4.03 million viewers.
CBS initially ordered 13 episodes of Doubt, which were all reportedly filmed. It remains uncertain when the remaining episodes will air, if they ever will.
What do you think? Have you seen Doubt? Was this CBS TV series cancelled too prematurely? Should the network have given it more time or, were they justified in pulling it after two very low-rated episodes?
I’m loving the episodes as they are now airing. I wish they’d bring it back. It was cancelled way too soon.
We have been watching the show on our DVR and really like it. It took a few episodes to get into all the characters but now we love it. Hate to see it end. Great scripts!
It was a great show! Big mistake to cancel. They didn’t even give it a chance!
I saw Doubt for the first time a couple of days ago and loved it. I am not interested in the shows that they say are replacing it. If CBS doesn’t pick it up again, maybe another station will be smart enough to air it.
I enjoy watching DOUBT, and hope it has a chance of returning to TV. I think Katherine Heigl comedy and wit makes for a balance drama. Please come back.
Yes it was canceled too soon!!! I was very excited when I found out that the rest of the series was airing this summer. I hope it is brought back, it is a great show
Yes I do, I have been watching the rest of the series. And they are even better than the first two. I don’t think it was given a fair chance!
I have been watching the episodes on Saturday night and I can’t understand why it was cancelled. I think it is a refreshing law series
I love this show do not cancel!!
Please don’t cancel this good show
Even if it is run in the summer.
This is a good show. Please don’t cancel it even if you show it in the summer instaed of all the reruns
This is a good show and was cancelled too quickly. Run it as a summer show but keep it on the air.
CBS didn’t give Doubt a fair trial run. I love this show and all the actors are great. Glad you are airing the 11 episodes that are left
Great show Can’t believe it was cancelled. Best show of the season.
Come on CBS! What is the matter with you? You have cancelled a number of wonderful shows and Doubt is definitely one of them. You have to give shows a chance. This is such a great show with a great cast. Shame on you.
I love this show, I have a hard time finding feel good shows like this on CBS.. Shameful it was canceled.
I think you hit the nail on the head: I see again and again that “feel good” shows get cancelled. It is very sad – heaven forbid we actually like all the people and there is no internal drama – they just like each other and try to do go work and be good people.
