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?

OMG!!! WTH I LOVE THIS SHOW
ABC U SUCK
Yes yes yes I am disappointed.. what a bunch of CRAP ! At least put in on DVD then.. UGH…
ABC you need to start listening to us! WE are the ones who pay the bills! With the growing business of cable tv, the networks can’t afford to throw away customers. And right now we are ALL very unhappy with you! This “tease” the networks do by starting and stopping new shows has become very irritating to the point where we have no confidence in your programming anymore. BRING BACK HAPPY TOWN!!
Deffinatley think that this show should continue to play.
I enjoyed the show and was looking forward to finding out who the magic man is….if it’s true I guess I’ll never know.
Well I have been out on surgical leave for three weeks and had saved this show to watch. I just fibished the show where Tommy shot Dave. I am very disappointed that we won’t get to see this mystery end. Doctor and police shoes have gotten old with me too!
I loved Happy Town and I was getting really into it. I waited and waited and finally realized that I needed to look into it. I can’t believe they just pulled it from the network! They could at least suck it up for 2 more weeks to satisfy the people who have been watching! Come on ABC…get it together!
Another great show that was not promoted properly. Maybe an earlier time would have helped. this was a great show, full of great characters, excellant plot and multiple twists. Maybe HBO or someone will pick this up and work it so it can have a chance to find a fan base. This one could have went in a lot of different directions, it was great!
I am sooooo upset that Happy Town was cancelled they could have at least finished the series for the dedicated viewers that did watch
SOOO totally sick of this crap… I think I will boycott major networks and ONLY watch movies from now on…
Mindless programs for the masses is all ABC can do.
Thank the TV gods for cable and other choices.
I made the mistake of viewing another ABC series and as soon as I realized the show was done well, was interesting, and made us eager for the next episode, that is was doomed to be canceled. I am certain that there is a ****** behind the programming who enjoys getting people hooked and then pulling the plug. boo ABC! Shame on me for trying yet again….. I’m still miffed about Eli Stone.
OMG..I watched the last two episodes of Happy town online.. (which by the way I loved the Show…rasberries to you ABC!!) I’m still lost…did they not finish?? Cancelled and couldn’t give it its deserved ending…NBC CBS…your looking better!!!!
Enjoyed show and was well acted. Please finish off the series.
i am so sick of this happening to all of the great shows. We finally get a interesting show that doesnt involve doctors,hospitals or big city police station/FBI/Forensics,and they cancel it! At least finish the story so we arent left hanging….
I agree I looked forward to this show every week and they pulled it off the air. Dang it !!!
