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?

they need to uncancel the show. it is really good.
I am so dissapointed that this network has chosen to pull Happy Town. They did not even give it a fair chance, this show was the best one I have seen this network introduce in quite awile. I was taping it every week and my grandaughter and I would get together every weekend to watch it together. This network just gets worse all of the time. Thank god for cable, at least they give new shows a fair chance and they do not just show the same type of shows over and over. Happy Town was a great mystery and… Read more »
Very upset that this show has been cancelled. It was very interiguing, loved the characters and loved the cast. This is one of the better shows that are on. Maybe the night show was on and time slot should be re-thought, but please!!!!! Put this show back on!!! Everyone loves a good mystery that is not solved in just one episode. ABC re-think your decision!!!!
I am SOOO sick of moronic reality shows. How about ahows that have some semblance of thought? Happy Town at least provided the reader with something to ponder…. Please bring it back!
BRING HAPPY TOWN BACK!!!!!!!! My mother and I couldn’t wait for the show to begin and have had it set to record every week from the beginning just in case we missed it. Please bring it back!
My partner and I really enjoy Happy Town and we were really looking forward to it’s continuance. We have a really hard time with ABC cancelling it. Is Network television really just becoming the common place of moronic Reality TV, CSI in every major city and Medical and Legal Profession Romances? What about those of us who enjoy a good Plot and some Mystery and Suspense? Network Television is really beginning to SUCK. At least we have the Cable Networks that are continually providing more stimulating entertainment. Perhaps ABC and their counter parts need to make a concerted effort to… Read more »
I really like this show!!!!!Then to leave us without ending it is horrible. Come on- at least give us those last episodes!!!!!!!
THIS REALLY SUCKS! I WAS GETTING INTO THE MYSTERY SIDE OF ABC. I DEMAND THAT THEY BRING HAPPYTOWN BACK IT WAS THE BEST SHOW YET! ABC IS REALLY DUMB THEY SHOULD’VE WAITED UNTIL FALL TO SHOW IT. MORE RATINGS!!!!!! BUT SINCE YOU’VE DID NOT THEN FINISH WHAT YOU STARTED. LET US SEE THE FINAL EPISODES.
Can’t believe they would cancel Happy Town.
I really liked Happy Town. It seems like every time I get into a show you CANCEL it! I don’t even watch ABC much anymore because of this! GRRRRRR
i agree. they did the same thing with LIFE. ugh!
really disappointed they cancelled happy town. Bring it back!!!!!!
really disappointed they cancelled happy town. i’m done w/ abc after this.
I am SO angry that they cancelled Happy Town! Why do they always cancel the good ones and the crap just keeps going and going?! Did I see that Hawthorne will be back for a new season?!?!?!
I never watch NETWORK TV. It is usually GARBAGE with stupid reality shows like American Idol, Dancing with the STARS or fat people losing weight. Do not get me started on the sitcoms which are made for mindless dopes who have the mind of a pea. This show was decent and I used to watch it on tape on the DVR through FIOS. In the end, some dope who works for ABC and DISNEY made this decision. Why not finish what you started? The same can be said for the 4400 which was pulled after 3 years on USA channel.… Read more »
Loved Happy Town. Bring it back
