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 Katherine Heigl! I will watch anything with her in it! I was very disappointed that the series was cancelled. Please give it another chance!!
I just finished watching the first 2 episodes and was shocked to see it was cancelled. They have hooked me because I want to see how the show ends. It was poor judgment to cancel after just 2 episodes.Give it a chance!
YES! Doubt was cancelled too quickly.
YES! Doubt was cancelled too quickly.
It was well acted. Well written. Smart. Witty….compelling and thius gets cancelled after 2 episodes when sophomoric ignorant shows like Married With Children lasts seasons….sad statement on society’s taste.
Doubt was very promising. Ridiculous move to pull tho show. Poor judgement if you ask me. Another bad network decision.
Cancelled too soon!!!!
What the hell. I watched two episodes . Give it a chance or bring it back in the summer when everything else is in hiatus. How can you decide after two shows. Tv has gotten crazy
This is insane. I just learned of this series…and made an effort to find it in the CBS evening line-up…and NO GO!! IMO, they should fire the executives responsible for this silly (and irresponsible) behavior!!
so they air TWO episodes and yank it? Shame on CBS. I LOVED THIS SHOW. Sick of watching stuff, getting hooked and then it’s off the air. What is wrong with CBS? Yet they keep junk on.
If the people that ordered the 13 episodes didn’t get fired too , then the show should get another chance. Show us the remaining episodes at least.
Looked like a good story but wouldn’t watch because I can’t stand Katherine Heigl. I can’t believe CBS took a chance on her. Maybe they should consider re-casting.
I do think it should have been given more of a chance. At least there wasn’t a season with a cliff hanger finale and no ending.
What does her behind the scenes antics have anything to do with viewers? She is in actress – not your friend! Really!! I think it was a good show. It was not given a chance.
Agree with cancelling! Terrible show!
I disagree…this show had great promise and a great cast. Foolish move to ax it !
