Last Resort has been sunk. ABC has cancelled the newbie drama. The network plans to air all 13 episodes but won’t order a back nine or a second season. ABC also cancelled 666 Park Avenue today and CBS dropped Partners as well.
The TV series takes place in the submarine Colorado when its officers are mysteriously ordered to destroy Pakistan. Sensing that something isn’t right, they require confirmation and are subsequently fired upon and hunted.
The cast of Last Resort includes Andre Braugher, Scott Speedman, Daisy Betts, Robert Patrick, Daniel Lissing, Dichen Lachman, Camille de Pazzis, Sahr Ngaujah, Jessy Schrams, and Autumn Reeser.
Though it received a lot of promotion, Last Resort debuted to mediocre ratings; a 2.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.31 million viewers.
The numbers declined over the course of the season and last night hit a new low with a 1.2 rating and 5.68 million viewers.
What do you think? Will you miss Last Resort? Given the ratings, should ABC have cancelled it?
I truly believe that last resort was an excellent series!
I kept looking for last resort, then decided to check online.
I’m sorry that ABC Decided to cancel a good show and leave the less desirable shows on the air.
I do have to concur with 666 being canceled, I just have a hard time with that kind of a show.
What’s so much evil in the world to have a show that talks about it is something that I prefer not to see
Was a great show. Was canceled cause it too closely resembled what ought to happen to this administration. But we’re too cowardly to kick Obama out
I loved last resort, I watch all my network shows on Hulu, maybe the network should consider viewers watching the show via other media outlets, I hate to see this show go, I really enjoyed and looked forward to watching this show.
Another good show canceled, ABC is doing something very stupid, they keep bringing back the stupid reality shows like, Dancing with the Stars, the Bachelor , and some other ridiculous shows
I love Last Resort and 666 Park Avenue. Why on earth would they cancel good shows and leave the stinky ones on??? Please Please Please ABC, bring back Last Resort & 666 Park Avenue.
Quite ironic that Zero Hour had half of the viewership Last Resort had. Hopefully Andre Braugher realizes that ABC execs know nothing about television. If I were an advertiser I would not support a network who gets the income fixed and then drops the programming for that timespace…Idiots!!!
I am very disappointed with ABC they can’t keep any decent shows on. All they want to air is reality shows. I think that last resort should summit its scripts to a different channel and see how they do then.
With an unfavorable view of the American government it goes the way of Jericho. Hollywood will not tolerate this stance on our government regardless of quality.
The shows with good scripts never stand a chance. Last Resorts was not given a chance. So having over 5 million viewers is not enough, that’s just doesn’t make any sense.
I enjoyed it more as the show went on. I think shows are chopped too early these days, they are not given time to grow. Just because a racing horse doesn’t run all that well to begin with, doesn’t mean you should get rid of it. Things can improve and get better with time. Not everything or every show is perfect in the beginning, that’s what’s makes them better. If it was great from the start wouldn’t we get bored?
Loved the show; made you think and ponder what you might do. Great show to watch with the family. Sad that it is not returning.
I cannot believe that ABC would not give Last Resort more time to develop viewers. I could not wait for the next episode to air. It was the most enjoyable and entertaining show for me this season. Family and I would talk for hours about what happened and what we thought would take place. Shame on ABC.
Stupid move. I know how about another stupid music,dance,sing off show…
I agree!! Tired of all the same crappy reality and so disgusted by not having any good scripted show to get involved with anymore!!! I think I’m finally sick of TV!!! Jackie
I love aLast Resort. I am really disappointed that it has been cancelled.
Can Last Resort be seen via the Internet??? Sorry to see the show terminated. I enjoyed it.
