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?

I want to capture the Magic Man….or woman….myself lol. This is just beyond stupid, I want more and now there will not be!!!
What the heck, man!?! This is frickin’ ridiculous!! At least post the last two episodes to hulu/fancast so us “fans” can have a resolved ending. Boo on you, ABC…
i enjoyed the show and wish it would just come back to life
It sounds if the networks, instead of just cancelling shows, need to get rid of the staff involved in pulling these shows. Why is it that they do this mid way through the season. I have recently found out that four of my favorite programs have been taken off the air. At least give it a second season to see what viewers think. Maybe they/we have not heard of a program until part way thru the season, get hooked, just to get it yanked from the airways! Very disappointing/frustrating when good shows get cancelled and some of the “crap” remains!
What the heck! Why do these retarted networks just CANCEL SHOWS like this?! Because of ratings? They should at least give the creators of shows like this a deadline to finish their stories!
I say lets get a lot, and I mean a lot of people together to make a real tv station that will support good tv with shows that have nothing but these mystery show they keep canceling on us to put these pre-teen sappy reality shows that low intelligent people enjoy watching.
Very upsetting!!!! I loved this show, was recording them they were so awesome!!! Very disappointing!!
I really am disappointed that they removed “Happy Town”. I was really enjoying it. It kept me on my toes and I am still waiting to see what happened to that girl and to see who really is “THE MAGIC MAN”. I believe it is the detective honestly, but we’ll never know because ABC is a pain in my rear and doesnt like the ratings. Maybe they should have advertised the show more than they did.
I am so upset!!! I was totally hooked! I want to know who the magic man is! I feel like if they pulled it they atleast owe it to us to tell us who is!!!!!!
Pathetic, why cancel shows like this? I forget which network Heroes ran on, but the same thing was done. Stupid. You can’t leave shows open like that. It’s totally unprofessional. It’s all about money these days. It’s like the people who watched the show are non-important. You gotta at least bring an end to a show. I actually liked the show.
If we stop supporting the networks that keep doing this, maybe they will get the point.

it saddens me for this… its only because it had a bad spot… my coworkers and I (who all work night shift) always watched it online… i so thought it was coming back 🙁
thats so true! I would always hulu it like religously!
I hate that they cancelled the show but even worse is when they do so without at least resolving the issues. Who is the magic man?
hey, idont happy town to end it was so awesome I wana find out who the magic man is????? does anyone know???????????
I am still waiting for the answers. I really hate when I get involved in a good show and end up with no resolution. Please play the finale episodes!!!
This was a really good show, they need to put it back on!!
