Syfy has been cleaning house and getting rid of a bunch of their existing shows while introducing new ones. Will new shows like Hunters attract bigger audiences than the shows they’re dropping? Will Hunters be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
On Hunters, the beloved wife of a decorated FBI agent (Nathan Phillips) is mysteriously abducted. When it becomes clear that her abduction is tied to a group of ruthless and extraterrestrial terrorists called Hunters, the agent is recruited by a secret government organization called the Exo-Terrorism Unit (ETU) to bring the aliens down. The show also stars Laura Gordon, Shannon Berry, Britne Oldford, Lewis Fitz-Gerald, Mark Coles Smith, Gareth Davies, and Julian McMahon.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
7/8 update: Syfy has cancelled Hunters after one season. Details here.

What do you think? Do you like the Hunters TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Man, I really liked and got into that show too, seems all the scifi shows that are a little different get cancelled… I hope there is a change of heart on this…
Hunters is an awesome show and I really don’t understand why it’s cancelled, it was different, full of action and mystery, the storyline and actors were superb. Syfy should give it a second chance and let people catch on, nowadays people live super busy lives and don’t have time to watch shows the day they air, most of us watch them when we have time and as a mother of 2, that’s whenever.
The show has been CANCELLED! Yes CANCELLED! KUPUT! DONE! GONE! Goodbye!
I really enjoyed watching Hunter’s and hope it returns! It seems like all the good shows are cancelled and the stupid reality shows are kept! I don’t understand the logic but I do know if this continues I am going to just stop watching TV and getting into show’s for them to be cancelled!
Hunters Should be renewed it’s way better then most the other shows that get kept shoot its a hell of a lot better than the movies that get played also smh….. I love Syfy but Its sad that everytime a person gets into certain shows then they get cancelled over low rating what about the people that gave the show a chance and got hooked what are they supposed to watch now? Its just not fair
It is so aggravating to get invested in a show only to have it cancelled. I really was interested in the story line and characters and was looking forward to another season. Certainly discourages me from wanting to start another one.
Hunters has been CANCELLED. A show has to average better than a 0.10 in order to be renewed, for the moment. Will this barrier be broken next season? We’ll find out.
If your gonna cancel sthing cancel Dark Matters this shows much better
Hey now! Lay off Dark Matters! There’s room for Hunters and Dark Matter. It was a huge mistake to cancel Hunters and I hope they will reconsider. Maybe someone can give us a movie.
It was a good show. I wish it was renewed
Its just now gettting really good RENEW IT
So with fake low ratings they are going to cancel a Gale Anne Hurd produced show now?
Sorry I’m not sure, how are these ratings fake? Are there any other alternative sources that can give us a different take on how many viewers are watching? The Network changed the time slot too, so that isn’t a good sign of confidence. Sucks. I was starting to like it. Needs more humour though.
What in the world does the name of the producer have to do with anything? The producers of Stargate SG1 and Atlantis had 15 years of successful seasons, and they then produced a terrible series called SGU and it tanked because it wasn’t what the majority of fans wanted to watch. It would have tanked after one season but they had a two season deal from the start. And the rating aren’t fake…that’s ridiculous!
SGU was an excellent series, but it was much darker than the other Stargates. People weren’t prepared for its intensity, I think, compared to the other series. But, in my opinion, the acting was fantastic and it really showcased some young talented people. I’m happy it lasted as long as it did, and at least they ended SGU with some closure for everyone.
There were some pretty big plot holes in the series that hurt it as well. Like the space suits they found in storage were all deteriorated except for two of them, and yet the satin sheets on the beds they meeded for the love scenes all survived 10,000 years without any deterioration…. Lol. But mostly it was the decision in the beginning to taint all the actors, exactly like BSG did in the third season. It was intentional as mentioned by Brad Wright. Problem is, BSG lost their fan base in the third season because of that decision, and the… Read more »
WOW! A 0.07 and a 0.06 for the last episodes. Maybe one episode left? Absolutely Zero chance of averaging a 0.10 per episode, and probably Zero chance of renewal. Just as it should be.
Please bring back The Hunters next season
I really like this series. It started out slowly, but has become much more intense as the plot unfolds. I really hope they renew it or at least give us closure before this season ends.
I agree, it got better as the episodes went on. Very rocky start but it didn’t end up being as predictable as I thought it would be. I eventually started to like some of the characters and now I’m rooting for the Aliens, but I don’t think we will get closure in the finale, I think the writing is aimed as a longer story we might not get to see. Maybe have to read the book for closure 🙂
I actually like this Hunters series! And i would like to see it renewed.
Just discovered it. Late time slot! I love it! Keep ’em coming!!!
