It looks like fans of Frequency are out of luck. Deadline reports The CW has cancelled the TV show after only one season.
Based on the 2000 movie of the same name, the drama revolves around a young police detective (Peyton List) who manages to communicate with her deceased father (Riley Smith) through time but there are serious and unforeseen consequences to her actions. The cast also includes Devin Kelley, Anthony Ruivivar, Mekhi Phifer, Lenny Jacobson, and Daniel Bonjour.
It was only a matter of time before The CW cancelled Frequency. Season one of the series delivered poor ratings, earning an average of .27 in the 18-49 demo and only 936,000 viewers. These numbers made the freshman series one of the network’s lowest-rated and least-watched shows for the 2016-2017 season.
There was a chance for a renewal if Frequency performed well on Netflix, but it seems that did not happen. Instead, The CW has decided to move on. The network has also cancelled No Tomorrow after one season. Details here.
What do you think? Did you watch Frequency? Do you think it should’ve been renewed?
Watching right now. On Episode 6. Amazing. What a shame it’s been cancelled. Wish some of the other tripe would get cancelled.
Give frequency another chance. IT WAS A GREAT SHOW!!! MUCH BETTER THEN MOST OTHERS THAT ARE SO MUCH ALIKE. PLEASE!!!!!!
We just started watching tonight and have watched the first two episodes and are about to start the third. This is a riviting program and we can’t believe it has been cancelled. Wow, we’re really disappointed.
Bummer. Now please reprise Lisa Snart and take Leonard’s place with the Legends. Please!
Yes, it was better then a lot of cop show with it’s unusual twist. Low rating, yes but so did the original Star Trek that was almost canceled but due to complaints was given a second chance (season) So how many spin offs and movies did it have once given that chance?
Will there be closure? I remember reading if the show is canceled, there would be a final episode.
Well, I should have expected this. Usually it’s one of the three major networks who pull this, which is why I watch only a few of their shows. I hope someone picks it up, but I won’t hold my breath.
They should get rid off CW & have all the shows under CW taking over by a better channel.
Good luck with that, cbs, abc, and nbc aren’t much better.
Steven Lewis, anything is better than CW. They have Flash but it’s one of the worst shows, they cancelled Dexter, huh they ruined it, it has so much possibility and they ruined it.
I hereby announce CW the worst tv network in the world, even worse than bbc
I think it was a brilliant show & should be given another chance & do a season 2.
Yes, Great Show, should have been given a better time slot, and better advertising. Good Family show. I guess their was not enough sex to sell?
Yes loved the show at least give it a second season to wrap up with her parents getting back together and her finding love, and catching the real killer.
Bummed. Great movie and great show. Hope someone else picks it up. Big mistake by CW.
I loved the movie & the show. CW should have promoted Frequency. Definitely better than most of the crap on television these days!
I like the show CW gets rid of to many good shows
Too bad. I looked forward to this show every week. It was the only show I watched on the CW.
