The mystery won’t be solved on Emergence. ABC has revealed they’ve cancelled the Tuesday night drama series so there won’t be a second season.
The Emergence TV series follows Jo Evans (Allison Tolman), a newly divorced police chief who ends up taking in a young child named Piper (Alexa Swinton) who is found at the site of a mysterious accident and she has no memory of what happened. Jo’s investigation into the child’s mystery draws her into a conspiracy that is larger than she could have imagined. The cast also includes Alexa Swinton, Owain Yeoman, Ashley Aufderheide, Robert Bailey Jr., Zabryna Guevara, Donald Faison, and Clancy Brown.
The first season of Emergence, which wrapped in January 2020, averaged a 0.49 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.71 million viewers.
Despite having an enthusiastic fan base, Emergence ended up losing half of its audience over the course of the season and ended up being one of the network’s worst-performing shows.
What do you think? Did you enjoy watching the Emergence TV series? Would you have watched season two on ABC?
Aww man I loved that show now I’ll never no.. time to fan fiction the end
Sorry to hear this. I don’t watch tv much anymore. This show and Manifest peaked my interest. I wish some other network would take it over.
Every time a good show comes on like this show where someone has powers or anything like that they cancel it. That was one of my favorite shows that I looked forward to watching every week and couldn’t wait for another season then I found out they are cancelling it. There are some shows that I can’t stand and they bring back those all the time but the real good ones get cancelled I don’t get it
Emergence had me glued to the TV. It was one of my favorite shows together with Stumptown and The Good Doctor. Very very very disappointed it’s cancelled. I thought the show was cast perfectly as well.
I’m sad that the show was cancelled.
Season 2 would have been awesome.
How many AI’s are out there???
I enjoyed the show Emergence and looked forward to another season.
I really, really, really liked this show!!!!! Not only did I like the show but they filmed most of the episodes in my town and nearby towns. Watching the actors and everybody involved was a show in itself. So sorry you cancelled another one of my favorites!
I really liked the show Emergence. I was looking forward to seeing season two. I’m very disappointed.
I really liked the dynamics of Emergence and am sorry it won’t be coming back.
Emergence was a great show!! I recorded it when I could not watch. I was waiting for season 2. What’s wrong with y’all at ABC? It’s like every time I get hooked on a show, y’all cancel!! I really wanted it to be solved. Give us season 2!! Plz.
I am so sick of ABC cancelling good series. Will not start to watch another series for ABC to up and cancel it. Has ABC ever given it a thought that perhaps folks don’t get involved in a series because they know ABC will cancel it. WOW…I am tired of ABC and their quickness to cancel a TV series. I had promised myself that I would not get involved with any TV series on ABC. I went back on my word, got all involved with the Emergence series and true to form ABC cancelled it. The new series Big Sky… Read more »
I agree!
I’m just gonna stop watching TV. All the shows I like, get canceled after only 1-2 Seasons. Emergence was an awesome show. And I hate unsolved mysteries like this…
I’m very very very disappointed that emergence was canceled me and my family and friends enjoyed every episode and the acting was unbelievable so why cancel a show that was destined to be a GREAT !!!! Renew season 2 !!!!
My wife and I both enjoyed this program. We will miss it.
I wish you would reconsider giving Emergence another try!! It was a really good show!! I was looking forward to the next season to see what happened!
