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 loved the show give it a chance. At least until people get a chance to see it.
Too soon!! Please at least post the rest of the episodes on your page or sell to Hulu!!
Best ensemble of actors I’ve seen in a long time, this show needs a chance to develop an audience. CBS needs to show some patience and let things happen in time. CBS gave them 13 episodes to be shown, lets see if there is audience after 13 episodes.
Good show. I planned to continue watching it. I’ve been looking all over to see where it had been moved to & now just read this! Boo! I disagree with the cancellation . This was one of the few new shows that had promise. 🙁
Ridiculous!! I only got to see one episode, but really liked it.
At least let us see the entire season please.
All set to watch tonight’s episode and just found out that the show has been cancelled. At least CBS could have finished out the story line before dropping the show. It had potential and had an interesting mix of characters. Much better than The Goldbergs – how does that stay on the air.
All set to watch tonight’s episode and just now discovered it’s been cancelled. Sorry that the network didn’t give it a chance.
Canceled way too soon. The storyline was great. I personally feel if they had kept the show serious instead of trying to have a “cute sideline” would have been better. I really want to know if the guy is guilty or not.
Yes cancelled too quickly as are most shows for more mature audiences. I think it showed real promise and was looking forward to watching something more interestesting than the usual inane comedies.
Yes, it was cancelled too quickly!! Just starting to get to know the players!
Should have given it a chance. I liked it. Show would make it.
Really liked this show!! Loved the characters and how they meshed together. Was so surprised to find it wasn’t on this week!! Come on–give it a chance!! Really–only 2 weeks. You have to give it a better chance than that!! I’d rather watch this and Code Black than stupid Survivor!! Put this on at 8pm and move Survivor to 10pm!!!
I really liked this show I went on line today to find out why it was not on and was very disappointed to learn it was taken off I really think they pulled the plug too soon ! Hoping you will reconsider ! The cast is remarkable
They didn’t give it a chance. I wad looking forward to seeing it develop. My only criticism is each time the being her on a program, they have her ro.antically involved. Why can’t she be a strong woman without going to bed with everyone.
This show was great and cancelled way too soon! I was looking forward to watching it and it was GONE! It had an excellent cast of characters and whether you like Heigl or not, she is a quality actor. The show should not have been cancelled! Please bring it back!
