The alphabet network has released details about the final episode of Last Resort. Though the network calls it a “season finale,” everyone involved with the show acknowledges that it won’t be back for season two.
Unlike fellow cancellation casualty 666 Park Avenue, at least we know that ABC will actually air the final episode of Last Resort. The last installments of 666 may air this summer.
Here’s the press release (beware of spoilers):
A VIOLENT BATTLE ERUPTS ON THE SUBMARINE – CAN MARCUS AND SAM TAKE CONTROL BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE? — ON THE SEASON FINALE OF ABC’S “LAST RESORT”
“Controlled Flight Into Terrain” – In the exciting season finale, a violent battle for control erupts on the submarine, which leaves the Colorado vulnerable to capture by a third party — one with an exploitative plan. Can Marcus and Sam take control of the sub before it’s too late? The season finale of “Last Resort” airs THURSDAY, JANUARY 24 (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) on the ABC Television Network.

Guest Cast: Michael Mosley as SCPO Hal Anders, Michael King as Petty Officer Kevin Hawkes, Chin Han as Mr. Zheng Min, Robert Davison as Kowalski, Jason Beghe as Wes Porter.

It’s a TRAGEDY that Last Resort isn’t being picked up and continued by FX, TNT or SOMEBODY!!!!!!! It is a fantastic show. The cast is great, the storyline is solid and excellent, and Andre Braugher is brilliant! I wish the writers would at least finish the story in a book! I’d buy and read it it! I want to know what happens to all of the characters, the Colorado and the country!!!!!!! Very sad!!!!!!
i cant believe they are cancelling this show…it is ridiculous. Its better than most shows on tv now a days..im thinking it has more to do with the fact they took risks than it does ratings. The government is media controlled so our precious president and congress probably didnt want it on the air …too close to whats going on in real life.
I love this show! It’s sad that this great show is getting canceled
Hi,
This is one of the few intelligent programs on TV. I wait all week to enjoy a new episode and the watch it again online. If ABC does not have the wisdom to give this show a chance I hope another network will.
This is a GREAT show. I have to watch it online, because of my work schedule. It is the only TV show that I can’t wait to watch every week.
I hope they change this decision!
am sorry to see Last Resort Go. Most TV programs these days are horrible, they
are largely sarcastic, belittling, dengrating, and it goes on.
I really like this show and it really sucks that another show that I like is getting axed!!! Enough already and let this show continue with what happens after they get back to washington etc etc….
I came online to read about how it was doing and was sorely disappointed to see that it is being canceled. ABC must have hired the same Fox executive(s) that killed “Firefly”: if it’s smart, good writing, with complex character-dynamics, get rid of it!
They need to add another letter and it should be the letter S that way it can it will say ABCS = ALL BUT COMMON SENSE Cause that is what they do not have COMMON SENSE
IMDB gives this show a 7.8 rating, which is pretty good. (Max of 10)
Honey Boo Boo gets a 2.2 rating and it gets promoted and a second chance!
What is wrong with this picture!
ABC… read the comments and keep Last Resort on!
Hmmm..Last Resort seems like it has some Benghazi undertones This cancellation may have been more political than just a ratings game. How interesting that the ratings have picked up in recent weeks..now, it is just getting to the underlying conspiracies
Pressure from the White House because it is getting too close to home and too close to the truth perhaps?
ABC continues to produce great shows and stick them in yucky timeslots. Thet did it with “Missing” and now they’ve done it again with Last Resort. I hope they will reconsider…
This is a good show … By getting it right … Sometimes your pressured to be shutdown
This is bull ****!!!! I hope another channel picks this up.
