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?
Love Last Resort…pissed that it is cancelled…so damn tired of the fake so-called reality shows that are not reality at all and no were near even being closed to anyones real life…the only real life reality shows are cooking shows. Last Resort has not even been given a fair chance. I didn’t start watching Scandel until the second season. Last Resort is great drama with sitting on the edge excitement. It is like watching the Bourne Identity and Mission Impossible all in one.
I am close to boycotting ABC. Every show I like gets cancelled. NBC and CBS are looking better every disappointment ABC pulls. Last Resort is an awesome show ! Full of suspense drama and excellent actors. Huge mistake ABC !
I LOVE this show!!! Don’t cancel it please.
i REALLY ENJOY LAST RESORT, IT SEEMS TO ME A GREAT IDEA!!!
its one of the only real shows left some of us like to watch real tv not reality , everytime i find a good show it gets canned y?
I really enjoyed last resort, it was entertaining and even at times believable. Good show with good acting. ABC, what are you thinking????? My 2 sons would come over on Thursday to watch the show. Another good show taken away…..

Our family is so disappointed to find out you have canceled this show. We all could
not wait for thurs. night to watch this show. It was family night in front of the TV.
Can you maybe reconcider????? Please!!!!!
Best new drama series on TV. ABC needs to give it a chance. It is so much better than the rest of the garbage on TV. Hopefully, some cable channel will pick it up and will make ABC very sad that they let it go.
Great show! Kept me and my husband on the edge of our seats every week and was the conversation of the day at work the next day. So tired of all the sex and extra marital affairs on tv but when a show of excellent, intelligent caliber comes along it’s cancelled without a second thought! So Sad!! Hopefully either USA or TNT will pick this series up and we’ll be able to get back on the US Colorado and see how the crew continues to deal with the island people and the Gov’t. YOU’VE BEEN WARNED!!

wow man this show was great i recorded all 5 epispodes , it was my favorite show and couldnt wait to see it every week, what a bummer , its gone, i never even watch ,abc this was the reason i did, anyway where can i see the rest of the unplayed episodes,
FINALLY an awesome show comes along…..with a plot line and acting like that…could have been a real big success. ABC should be ashamed. I am sooo sick of this reality crap that has taken over. They should at the very least have done another season in a different time slot. I hate getting into a new show …only to have it cancelled.
gotta agreed with rest, a good show, unique style. then asinine boredom crapany coz of low ratings. very tired of the cheapy reality, dancing, singing, oversex amish crappy carp. tv shows stinks like ethyl mercaptan, heated catbizz, burnt transformer, swamp cabbage gas. bad as cheapy vinnie mickeyman wrestling.
Huge mistake…my family was so into this show. Better than the normal everyday drama shows that are trashy. ABC you messed up big time. My son just got back from Army basic training and said this was the best show on TV. You should have left this show on as a tribute to the men and women who serve our country. Shame on you!
I have purposely boycotted tv for 10 yrs. Last Resort was my first venture back into TV and I really thought it a fantastic story played out by talented actors. Nonsensical to cancel. Going away from TV again!
