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 love this show ! it’s fast paced, authentic with the courtroom scenes. I can’t believe they would cancel this show. there are terrible shows on tv right now, this is a good one !!! please keep it on.
Please bring this show back … it was canceled before it was even given a chance! I think it is so much better than a lot of other shows that have been renewed.
I’m disappointed that this series is being cancelled! I thought it was interesting and well done! Reconsider please
I will this show. Great cast!!!! Definitely a mistake to cancel
I’m not going to try and say its the best show ever, but having now caught most of the season I think its an easy call that CBS acted way, way too quickly. Doubt has a top-notch cast and some interesting story lines. It’s a shame CBS jumped the gun. A little development and some effort, this could have been a hit.
I love this show. I can not believe it was cancelled. Very clever and so perfect for current day topics!
I think the show was cancelled to soon. It a great show and it should be bought back. I hope another network pick it up.
I love legal drama shows. I’ve been watching Doubt–even knowing it’s been cancelled–because it’s such a good show. Please renew this show. All the actors and the scripts are excellent.
I love this show & have been binge watching to catch up. Ms Cox is a star. Love it! Please renew.
I too just discovered the show & have been binge watching to catch up. It is a great show with an excellent cast Lavern Cox & Elliot Gould are scene stealers. Love this show! Please renew & give it another chance.
I love this show, but only discovered it a few weeks ago. Too bad CBS didn’t give people a chance to grab on to it before it was cancelled.
I don’t understand why a sharp, fast paced show like this would be cancelled after so short a run! CBS has lost it’s mind right now. NO more Reality shows, just good drama, please!
Doubt was cancelled way too soon! My wife and I thoroughly enjoy this show! Very talented actors! Don’t quite understand what networks think we viewers like. So many shows that are kept on the air are so undeserving!
Who ever made the decision to cancell “Doubt” didn’t give it a chance! Katherine Heigel and
Dule’ Hill are great together!
You guys are morons! I never saw any advertising / promotion of the show. I just happened upon it while pursuing through the shows on my iPhone. I was immediately committed to watching the series.
All the time left between shows like The Good Fight & Madam Secretary, cause viewers to look elsewhere for a good series to watch, as on ABC or NBC.
I am absolutely glued to the TV when this show is on. Doubt has a lot to offer which makes me wonder why CBS cancelled it so quickly. I think they made a bad call and hope this show finds a place on the lineup.
