Doctor Henry Morgan may be immortal but his TV show isn’t. ABC has cancelled the Forever TV series after one season of 22 episodes.
On the Forever TV show, New York City’s star medical examiner (Ioan Gruffudd) can ascertain things that most can not because of his vast experience — he’s been alive for 200 years but can’t figure out the how or the why. The rest of the cast includes Alana de la Garza, Lorraine Toussaint, Donnie Keshawarz, Joel David Moore, and Judd Hirsch.
The series debuted last September to a 1.5 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 8.26 million viewers. The ratings grew for episode two but they started falling after that.
Though the Forever series had some very passionate fans, that devotion didn’t translate into positive ratings. The numbers were pretty poor for much of the season and the show ended up averaging a 1.12 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 4.93 million viewers.
As a result, ABC has decided against ordering a second season of Forever. The last episode aired earlier this week and unfortunately left viewers with lots of unanswered questions.

this is the Best show I have seen in years pls do not cancel it
I’m gutted its gone

I looked forward to it every week; anticipating the eerie relationship between the Forensic Pathologist and the other “Older” Immortal Physician/Serial Killer. The father-son aspect of Judd Hirrsch as the son and Ioan Gruffudd as the Father was fascinating. The love interest played by the strikingly beautiful Detecive Martinez (Alana de La Garza) and her relationship with Dr. Henry Morgan (Ioan Gruffudd) was electric and almost magical. The wise-cracking… Read more »
Forever, was a great show. Entertaining, kept you interested, all age groups liked it. Intelligent, good writers. The execs liked it. Saw the next season and thought it was good. So, what happened? I heard that Astronaut Wives was the show to take its place. Watched it twice, and it’s low class, idiotic, and just ridiculous. Not intelligent or interesting. Like a bad soap opera. BRING BACK FOREVER! I am sure you won’t be sorry.
