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?
Please bring this show backkkkk
Don’t know why there’s not a second series, I thoroughly enjoyed every episode. Brilliant acting by all.
please bring it back.one of the best realistic series I have ever watched
I really enjoyed the interesting unexpected twists in the story line in Hostages. It’s very disappointing to have a network produce a show and leave a viewer with a cliffhanger or unfinished storyline abruptly cut off. Very disappointed in the CBS network. Don’t believe I would likely trust a station that brings a show just to leave me hanging on a continuing plot I looked forward to. Not likely to trust the station on its series productions anymore.
Everytime a great show like hostages and notorious they cancel them but they leave on shows that aren’t half as good. Plesse bring them back or maybe usa can pick them up. Stalkers was great too
We want more, we want more, we want more…and maintain the cast!!
Yes I did enjoy it and have been waiting for the second series. This is very disappointing. Also Hatufim, why not another series? again very disappointing, excellent and Homeland is total rubbish in comparison – gave up on HOMELAND when Damian Lewis died. Thereafter I did not have to suffer the poor script and the appalling Clare Danes
Please bring back “Hostages”!! good show!!!
I loved Hostages, please bring it back with the same cast.
I wish netflix or someone would pick it up. All CBS does is depend on spin offs of other shows and that is getting old.
It’s now on Netflix!!!!
Please bring it back and maintain the cast
please bring it back and maintain the cast too
Bring it back we what it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I loved hostages. one of the best shows ever!!! been sitting at work googling season 2 then I find this… CBS must bring it back.
Agreeeed!!!
I LOVED hostages. I think there wasn’t enough marketing for their show. It was fast paced and so many twists involved that you never knew what was next. I wished there would be a follow up season with them same cast.
I loved this show because this show was the best show I ever seen, I can’t belive it’s been cancelled , I really hope they will make the second season one day. Please! We want to see more!
I enjoyed watching the tv show and I really wanted it to come back.
