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?

Not one person for the shows abrupt ending. It’s a breath of fresh air when a non cops, lawyers, doctors show makes it to prime time………and bingo it’s gone.
Where’s TV lands mind, give us a break, give something different time to develop.
ABC = Already Been Cancelled????!!!!!! I agree with them all. Shame on you idiots!
sorry one last thing..someone made a good point..ITS SUMMER TIME!! most people dont watch TV during that time..kids to attend to, vactions, etc… many dont have time for TV during summer months..
bs. ! How can you take a show off just when it’s getting good. what a bunch of s…
Did anyone catch my point…i said id stop watching ABC if “Happytown” was pulled…how would ABC know this, theres nothing out there monitoring what I watch and im just one in millions that dont have anything monitoring what they watch, so how in the heck could they pull something based off of ratings..ABC what are you doing!
THis is BS…where do they get their ratings from…we all know that the census for ratings is soooooo in aqurate so how in the heck do they decide to pull a show based off of ratings…there is nothing out there to monitor TRUE ratings …screw you ABC this is that last time i ever watch ABC shows again.
I really loved this show – need answers – watched last 2 episodes last nite and thought I would have closure, BUT still have nothing.
Is there a movie of this show – that is complete, or a book that will reveal the ending?
Since there is very little on TV during the summer months I became quite interested in Happy Town only to find out it is unlikely we will have an ending. SHAME ON YOU!!!
Maybe I will stop watching all of your programs—–
you cant get someone hooked on a show, then pull it. seriously makes me wanna not give ANY new shows a chance! Fans that gave ABC the benefit of the doubt, by watching this new show, in the midst of a TON of summer reality blockbusters, are really getting the shaft here. Sure ABC… see if we come back for the next (non police) pilot.
Very dissapointed!
what low ratings? nobody asked me ! finally a show worth stayin’ at home for, and now
it’s the same story as Eastwick, Threshold etc.
better cancel all the reality shows instead.

Everyone I know has been enjoying Happy Town!!!!! I am so mad right now i could spit nails!!!!
Hey ABC, ever heard of DVR? Morons! Replacing it Castle and Eastwick??? Common’!
CBS saw Harpers Island all the way through, just saying.
This is the third time ABC’s pulled something I was enjoying without an ending. Done with thier summer series if it always going to end with RE-RUNS of other shows anyway!

I already wrote them….took me 3 entries as they limit you to 500 characters 🙂
ABC probably won’t listen, but who knows; it’s worth a shot.
