If you were waiting anxiously to find out the identity of the mysterious Magic Man on ABC’s Happy Town, you’ll have to wait a bit longer.
Happy Town revolves around a bunch of strange disappearances and murders in a small town. The large cast includes Sam Neill, M.C. Gainey, Geoff Stults, Lauren German, Amy Acker, Steven Weber, Ben Schnetzer, Sarah Gadon, Jay Paulson, and Robert Wisdom.
After a disappointing start in the ratings, Happy Town was pulled off the airwaves for much of May. Before the show could return on June 2nd, ABC officially cancelled the series. Only eight episodes have been filmed but at least answers to some of the TV show’s mysteries will be revealed by the end.
Unfortunately, ABC has pulled the show off the air once again. Happy Town was scheduled to take next Wednesday off but return for June 30th and July 7th with the last installments. The network has decided, likely because Happy Town’s ratings have gotten really bad, to replace them with repeats of Castle.
It’s likely that ABC will get around to airing the last two episodes of Happy Town on a Saturday night sometime this summer. It won’t be soon though. On July 3rd, they’ll burn off the last episodes of the forgotten. On July 10th, the network’s airing the extra two episodes of Eastwick. Could Happy Town return on July 17th? Another mystery that we’ll have to wait to have solved.
What do you think? Are you upset that ABC has pulled the last two episodes of Happy Town? Do you think they’ll ever air?

My neice and I got together every week to watch the show. So boo to them for pulling it with only a few to go. Bring them back soon……..
if abc cancels a series so be it. but geez don’t leave your viewers hanging. air the final episodes in a timely manner and let us know when by airing promos.
I really enjoyed Happy Town! What has happened to tv today? A great show with suspense AND a plot (unlike all these reality shows that make you feel like a peeping tom). If I wanted to watch a boring reality show, I could just go next door and peep through my neighbor’s window! Come on ABC – why not be the first to step out of the box and air a real series. Or at least let this one conclude for all the faithful and loyal viewers ABC once had. Happy Town was one of the reasons I began watching… Read more »
I can’t believe happy town is cancelled already. I was gearing up for what seemed to be a great replacement for Lost. For now on I’ll just wait until a series has a few seasons under it’s belt before investing time in it.
I am ANGRY!!! Why was this great show canceled? All the actors are handsome, interesting characters and good acting. Do you rather have all the stupid reality programs ? I was ready to watch last Wednesday the program but no, it was some boring program for all the loosers who enjoy stupid programs. If it doesn’t come back I’ll never watch ABC ever again. NEJ
I was really bumbed,I would look forward to watching the mystrey unfold.Now that its not on I will problably start watching something else to take its place.
I really liked this show and want to know what happens…this always happens I get into watching a show and cant wait for it to be on the next week and then they decide to pull it! Do they not care that those of us that were watching it would like to see what happens and find out who the “Magic Man” really is ??????
This show is the best mystery show since Twin Peaks. It should definitely be continued. Shame on ABC executives if they won’t get it.
I’m very angry that this show is being canceled again and ABC will regret this decision I really liked this show and I think that ABC made the stupidest and absolute worst and dumbest decision of there lives of canceling the show! I’m really pissed off about this and i hope they can keep this show running for years to come! I don’t just hope they keep the show I demand it!!!!!!!!!! One more thing if they don’t bring the show back i will protest against and won’t watch there station ever again because I’m sick and tired of them… Read more »
I’m really disappointed with ABC. My husband and I both enjoyed this mini series. I really do hope they air the last episodes.
I am pissed and oh so disappointed. I thought abc finally was showing something worth while to watch. Ignorance is bliss, right abc!!!!!!!!!
I liked Happy Town and am tired of investing time in a series that gets cancelled!!!!!!!!!
This is exactly why I will not watch ABC anymore. They just keep yanking shows and don’t care about the viewers that were watching. At least have the curtesy to pretend you care about your viewers ABC and finish a show!!
I have two sisters and we texted each other during this program trying to fingure out any bizzare clues there were…we want to finish.

I’m upset. I really enjoyed Happy Town! I would rush home every Wednesday night to watch it, and believe me I enjoyed watching it besides the usual reality crap that’s on. I came home to watch it and discovered that Castle was recorded on my dvr instead-yuck-I hadn’t realized it had even been cancelled. There a lot of questions that won’t get answered and that bothers me…beside the network really didn’t give the show a chance. At least two seasons would’ve sufficed. All I can say is that I’m dissappointed and upset..hopefully it may be back on.
