Word is circulating today that Legend of the Seeker has been cancelled after two seasons. There hasn’t been an official announcement yet but it doesn’t look like there will be a third season.
Legend of the Seeker is a fantasy series about a young woodsman (Craig Horner) who discovers he is actually destined to be a heroic Seeker. The series also stars Bridget Regan, Bruce Spence, Craig Parker, and Kevin J. Wilson.
Things haven’t been looking so good for the syndicated series for awhile. The ratings had dropped and, last month, the Tribune company (which owns a lot of local stations that air LOS) decided not to pick it up for a third year.
ABC Studios and show producers said that the show had not being cancelled yet and that the studio was searching for other local stations to fill in for the Tribune stations.
There had been unofficial word that that process was going well. However, now it seems that ABC couldn’t find enough takers for LOS.
Sad as this news might be, it doesn’t come as a big surprise. The season’s viewership started at about 2.5 million in November and the April 10th episode barely brought in two million. That’s not an attractive trend for a new buyers.
Hopefully, the producers will be able to include some degree of closure to the final episode.
What do you think? Are you sorry to hear there won’t be a third season of Legend of the Seeker?

Bring back the Seeker! Watch its fan base grow.
YOU HAVE TO PUT LEGEND OF THE SEEKER BACK ON. EVERYONE IS GETTING SO TIRED OF ALL THESE REALITY SHOWS. FINALLY A GREAT SHOW COMES ALONG AND YOU WANT TO CANCEL IT. GIVE US A BREAK IT IS A GREAT SHOW AND DEFINATELY SHOULD CONTINUE. A LOT OF PEOPLE I SPOKE TO SAY THEAY WOULD DEFINATELY BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IF IT WAS CANCELLED. BRING IT BACK!!!!!!
LOS doesnt need to be cancelled it’s such a great show and i wish they would come out with the third season!!! Please!!!
i am almost 70 years old and love legend of the seeker not much else exciting on tv thesedays. iwould love a season 3. i sure hope something will work out . please make an older lady happy.
Cancel the Seeker???? I will be upset beyond belief. This is one of the best shows on tv. I started watching it during Season 1 and was hooked. Like the others have said, there is not very many good shows to watch. Out of all the shows that are on, this is the ONLY ONE that I look forward to watching. Please, Please, Please do not cancel this show. Everything about this show is the best, the actors, the scenery, everything. I desparately need to have this show to make my Seeker Fix!!!!
It is real shame that another great show like: eastwick, sg-atlantis, melrose place, and angel and buffy a few years ago is also cancelled. Presently, it appears that there are going to be more fashion influenced and gossip /rumor inspired shows that to me are uninteresting. When this show is becoming interesting and after so much has happened it ends. No one will know if the seeker and the mother confessor will wed or darken rahl will return to his former evil ways now that he is alive again. Weekends will be boring without The legend of the seeker.
I only came across the t.v series on net flix but I was drawn in by it. I only hope that they won’t let the show go off air. I can say I would gladly watch more episodes. I hope my voice counts
Ive read every one of the sword of truth series. They were the best books of fantasy ive ever read and i dont care that the show doesnt follow the books. I just want the show to continue. As they say in showbiz THE SHOW MUST GO ON!!!!!
Pleaseeee do not cancel Legend of the seeker.I have never missed an episode,I don’t whatch much Tv but it would break my heart not to see this show go forward to season 3,4, etc.All the junk we see on the Tv this show is one of the best…..Im asking please dont cancel..Thank you.
“Michelle”, thanks for your comment about The Office. Gawd, I thought I was the only one who couldn’t stomach that show. I love a good parody, but these people are so mind-numbingly stupid it kinda hurts to watch. By comparison, LOS is an extremely intelligent show. It surprises me how much I like it, because before this I though Terry Goodkind was something of a no-talent hack, after “The Sword of Shanarra” many years ago. But LOS shows maturity, and thoughtfulness, and a willingness to shake up the Sword and Sorcery genre a bit. I LOVE the fact that–although the… Read more »
i am a nigerian and i have been watching this series pls dont cancel it
I haven’t read the books and don’t care that the TV series doesn’t follow it exactly. That was never the point when Goodkind gave the green light to make the series. The actors are great, the action is very cool and the plot lines have so many twists and turns that you can’t predict what’s going to happen. I like that very much. I’m appalled that ABC and Tribune canceled the show citing low ratings as the reason. I live in Seattle and couldn’t find the show on TV to save my soul. I had to watch in on Hulu.… Read more »
I was just starting to LOS until they made the lesbian scene. I am not anti gay, my niece is gay and I love her dearly, I just thought they were using the old “jump the shark” trick. I do hope they have some kind of series finally.
It would be a terrible loss to cancel this very creative program. I look forward to watching Legend of the Seeker every week, and when I heard it was to be cancelled, I was truly shocked.
It is a very well acted, imaginative program and there are so few shows that have the artistry of LOS. I hope that the producers of the program and I really hope the suits at the CW reconsider. LOS is getting very popular and it would be a terrible mistake to cancel such a show.
