*5/21/20 update: Emergence has been cancelled by ABC.
No why cancel its awesome
We just started watching Emergence on Hulu about a month ago (long after it aired on ABC. It’s a great story, with great acting, and interesting relationships. It’s a fresh idea and very well done. When we found out ABC cancelled a second season we had to write — there aren’t that many interesting, well-done and thought-provoking shows on network TV. Get it together ABC, there may be more interest in streaming than network shows — that’s us for sure.
It would be a shame if there wasn’t a second series. All the family thoroughly enjoyed Emergence. We couldn’t wait for a Monday evening as it was the only great show on the television. We could not get enough of this series. And it was never without its twists. Thought the actors were brilliant. And there NEEDS to be a second series … we loved it!
Cancelled ? Are you having laugh ?? Best new sci fi series for a long time ! What you ‘ll put on reality tv crap . But this the best thing in a long time and you cancelled it…… madness
I have an idea for the show, maybe that glowing thing they discovered could be the cause for Covid 19 and then the show can go on from there while they try to discover the cure and then the show will go on forever because that’s how long it seems it’s going to take!!!
There are not many Sci Fi shows on the Major Networks & I thought is was about time! & this show kept me interested they always left you for more! & for having a lot of unknown Actors didn’t make a bit of difference because they each held their own. Shame on you for ruining my only program on that night I had been looking forward to. I don’t understand you programmers? I know tons of people who are so disappointed, you don’t know what you got until it’s Gone!! GET IT BACK!!!!!
I really liked this show, and was anxiously waiting for season 2 to begin. I’m really mad to find out that Emergence had been cancelled. This was an excellent sy-fi show. I really hope they change their mind, or that another channel picks it up.
I dont want to see emergence canceled. I’m heartbroken and looked forward to seeing season 2 I had to have a new dish box and was looking to record it and am crushed you took it off the air.
How was the last show? Did they tie up anything or leave it hanging?
I won’t start watching shows until they’ve been on for 3 seasons, so I didn’t even begin this one. It sounded interesting and the preview looked good.
This gets frustrating!!! Seems like NBC is the king of the hill in good shows! CBS does well also and the cw! I was hoping I could find a good show on abc… Aah! Emergence absolutely!! Then it gets the ax! Bummer! Good comments from viewers about the show, I second those comments hoping and will reconsider and give it 2,3,4 seasons and check the ratings then. NOT after I nearly season, please!!!! Kens begging! Good show but BETTER storyline.
Will really miss this show. It was well written with great twists and turns. I will keep my fingers crossed that they change their minds about canceling it.
Emergence is canceled??? This was one of my favorite shows. Phenomenal acting and great storylines don’t seem to attract television viewers anymore. It’s really a shame. Allison’s previous show, Downward Dog, was fantastic and was also canceled. She’s such a great actress… any show she’s in should be a given hit. This show had it all.. I just don’t get it. I wish there was a streaming service that would offer all these great shows that get cancelled.
I totally agree with you, ABC has all those Fairytale shows & they put a good Sy-Fi & it’s Bye Bye!
this must not matter The percentage of users who rated this 3.5 stars or higher. to yal.it didnt to ABC either LMS
why in the h–emergence (tv series) cast canceled
I miss this show please bring it back
