Josh Holloway enjoyed a long run on Lost but unfortunately he hasn’t been as lucky with Intelligence. The CBS TV show has now been cancelled after one season of 13 episodes.
On Intelligence, Gabriel Vaughn (Holloway) is a high-tech intelligence operative who’s been enhanced with a super-computer microchip in his brain. It allows him to be connected directly into the global information grid. Other castmembers include Marg Helgenberger, Meghan Ory, Michael Rady, John Billingsley, P. J. Byrne, Tomas Arana, Lance Reddick, and Peter Coyote.
After the failure of Hostages, the network was hoping for Intelligence to be a ratings hit to fill their Mondays at 10pm timeslot. It wasn’t to be. Despite some impressive star talent and special effects, the show couldn’t draw enough viewers.
The network debuted it after NCIS on a Tuesday night and the show drew decent numbers but, once it moved to its regular Monday night slot, the ratings tanked. The season of 13 episodes averaged a 1.3 demo rating with 6.85 million viewer, making it one of the lowest-rated shows on the network.
That wasn’t good enough to mandate a second season renewal so Intelligence has been cancelled. The final episode aired on March 31st.
What do you think? Did you like this Josh Holloway series? Should it have been cancelled or renewed for a second season? Why do you think it didn’t catch on?
This is plain stupidity on the network’s part. This was a quality show. Not everything has to have zombies, vampires, singing and dancing. They should bring it back.
this is a sad day to find out that there is not going to be a second season
Bring back intelligence, show was absolutely the best! What’s on now? Exactly
This was one of my favorite shows. Bring it back! The time slot problem was an executive error and had nothing to do with the quality of the show.
This was one of my favorite shows. Why do they cancel the good ones. Should have put it in a better time slot. This was the fault if program managers not the show itself
This show brought action, drama, and comedy together perfectly. I really think it would be an incredible idea to renew the show. My whole family loved the show. We promise if you start it up again, you will have higher ratings and more viewers.
I enjoyed watching an was hoping it will come back for another season.Next time they should put it in a time slot where they need to stop trying these stupid reality shows or shows that are being canceled after the first 2 or3 episodes,but still keep showing the remaining shows they have left trying to fill the remaining timeslot thinking people would still watch.”PLEASE GIVE US A REAK!”
I loved this show!! Can’t believe there won’t be a second season. Major miss for the network.
I can’t believe this is really going to happen. This show is wonderful. Much more entertaining than a lot of garbage shows on now.
I loved this show. Change it to a different night. Bring it back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is such crap! That was a great show! So much better than most of the garbage that is on the air
Great show! Bring it back!
My husband and me love this show please bring back season 2 we r waiting go see it back again soon is a wonderful show fill with action
I’m crying, because I love this tv show…
The show has good potential to compete with the cyborg shows going around. Please release season 2 and find a good time to give viewer a chance to watch it. I love it.
