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?
I really like this show ,its different . It had me hooked the first episode give this show another chance. I find it hard to believe it lacked audience . I really think this show has potential

You people are the most selfish people if you stopped this tv show. really bothering us if you going to cancel it.
This just proves how the world and most of Tv viewers on US are IDIOTS, they like sitcoms and bad acted cops shows, but when you put on them a “Intelligence show” (ironically) their RETARDED brains explode, fkn silly chimps…
We really liked this show. So please bring it back many people are so excited for the 2nd season. Dont you know many countries love this show. And many people are looking forward to the next season. Please, maybe others wont like the show, but how about us we liked how the show runs. I was so sad when i saw that it was canceled.So please bring it back.
I was sad to see the show tanked and was not renewed for a second season. I DVR’d the show and always watched it on the weekends when I had more time. I wish there was a way to factor in the amount of people who regularly set their DVR devices to record the show. They might discover there were plenty of people watching the show. Intelligence was a smart show. I loved the chemistry between Josh Holloway and Meghan Ory. John Billingsley and Lance Reddick were added bonuses to watch as well. It seems like all the intelligent shows… Read more »
