CBS called Hostages a “limited series” but that didn’t mean that it couldn’t return for a second season if the ratings were strong enough. They weren’t and now, the network has officially cancelled it.
On Hostages, the lives of a prominent surgeon’s family are threatened by terrorists who want her to kill the President of the United States. The cast of this thriller includes Toni Collette, Dylan McDermott, James Naughton, Rhys Coiro, Billy Brown, Sandrine Holt, Tate Donovan, Quinn Shephard, and Mateus Ward.
The series debuted to weak ratings back in September and the numbers fell even lower in subsequent weeks. It was clear that this show was going to be cancelled, the only questions was “When?”. To their credit, CBS kept Hostages on the air for all 15 episodes.
They’ve now officially cancelled Hostages. Fortunately for the fans who stuck with it, the show was given some closure in the final episode.
What do you think? Did you like Hostages? Were you hoping for a second season? Maybe with some of the same characters or all new ones?
I had never heard of the show until it was recommended to me by Netflix. I sat through all 15 episodes in less than 24 hours and enjoyed the drama of the show as well as the ending. Well done!!
The ratings may not have been that good, but theshow was absolutely excellent! I enjoyed all 15 episodes ! Those that didn’t watch or didn’t want to watch, missed a really great opportunity to watch something finally WORTH watching on TV. No season 2, is suicide for the network !
I really enjoyed hostages really sad there wont be a second one
i really liked it too, it was really good and sad their wont be more seasons
my family loved hostages!!! We want a new season.
I absolutely loved Hostages!!!! I am so disappointed to know that it is canceled. It was truly one of the better shows on television. What a let down!!!!
My husband and i loved it! We recorded it never watched it live. But it was great!was waiting for another season! I think they could do more I was not ready for it to end!!
I knew when I started watching it that the series would be limited. Because seriously, how would you continue with the next season? Unless it’s going to be a whole new casts with new hostages. Or some of the casts stays the same just not in the same situation. Either way. I didn’t expect another season. Too bad though. Because I really did like the show.
One of the best shoes I’ve watched in a while, when will it return.
I really enjoyed the tv show Hostages.. I do hope you bring it back for more series.
