Yesterday, we reported that Legend of the Seeker there were strong rumors that the TV show had been cancelled after two seasons on the air. ABC Studios, which produces the program, hasn’t made an official announcement. However, two of the show’s most vocal supporters have.
Actress Bridget Reagan (Confessor Kahlan) wrote, via Twitter, “Got some sad news that Seeker is no more. So sad to say goodbye to my NZ family but excited for what’s next.”
Via his own Twitter account, producer Mike Sussman wrote, “The quest is complete. Thank you so much to our amazing cast, crew & all our fans, it’s been an awesome two years. We will miss you all.”
What do you think? Was Legend of the Seeker worth watching? Why do you think the show’s ratings were on the decline?

I just watched both series on Netflix. Seeing some of the moronic situation comedies broadcast today I find it hard to believe that Legend of the Seeker has been cancelled. I thoroughly enjoyed it and mourn its passing.
Honestly, its no supprise to see this go; talk about crappy acting. Its easy to see they hired a face, not tallent. Combined absolute crap acting with a simi good story and throw in some lesbians with long pony tails and all the sudden people are addicted to this show *I know I was* but truthfully it was terrible! It has the “doctor who”effect though… somthing about it is good enough to watch week after week after week. Thus said, I will miss the show, the actors had beautifull faces and the cara female/female kissing scene will be emblazoned upon… Read more »
The good shows always get canceled way too early. I love Legend of the Seeker – I’m so sad to see it go… Just like Fireflies and Kings was cut too soon. I agree, American Idol needs to go, what a waste of a time slot. Bring back one of the good ones that deserves to still be on the air.
This breaks my eart that they are cancelling Legend of the Seeker 🙁
I never thought I’d like the show..but I did. I even stayed home on Saturday nigts, just to watch the shows (that’s how much I love it). They keep crappy shows like Dancing with the stars, and get rid of good shows..STUPID tv execs.
I have read and own all the books! granted the series is loosly based on the books it is still a GREAT show! it would be AWSOME if someone made a movie version closer to the books or even go with a movie version of the tv show! for 11 years I have wanted to see The Sword of Truth series as a movie!! It will be sadly missed!!!
My very favorite shows are Legend of the Seeker and Ghost Whisperer. I can’t believe that they are both being canceled! Cancel V instead!
What can we do do bring them back? I have nothing to look forward to the Fall TV season now….. Please bring them back!
thank you god! i hated this show! i read the books and the show made me want to thrust my fist into my monitor!
y did u keep watching if u hated it
actually Steve, no one cares you hate it. we, fans of the show, come here to mourn! let us…go back reading the manuscript and stay there!
UR THE DUMB ONE. YOU PROBABLY LIKE AMERICAN IDOL AND STUPID REALITY SHOWS.THAT’S WHY YOU DON’T KNOW WHAT A GOOD TV SHOW IS EVEN IF IT SLAPS YOU IN THE FACE.THE SEEKER IS AN AWESOME SHOW. iT DOESNT HAVE TO MATCH THE BOOKS. U SUCK!!!
Really wish they would keep Legend of the Seeker and Merlin. I think about every show I like is being cancelled. Cancel the stupid reality show’s.
I really liked the plots in these shows and the action in Legend and Merlin, very action and family oriented, show’s with heart. Do more advertisment and set your DVR to record no matter the time it airs.
Keep the family shows and remove the junk.
cancelled? this is ridiculous! they didn’t even have time to get into the rest of the plot! This was a great show and its just too bad that someone couldn’t cough up to let it go on longer. all anyone ever cares about is profit, and its sad to see a bazillion shows all similar on tv all the time (Axe csi Miami for gods sake, or american idol) a true seeker fan, i am most disappointed in the lack of support for a show that should have lasted at least three seasons.
This show was the best. Great storytelling, and fantastic acting made this show memorable for a long time to come. Whats funny is that NBC is rolling out 12 new series this year. Really? Didnt somebody try to pitch this gem to the geniuses at NBC. Of all the dumb ass new shows for this upcoming season this show will be sorley missed .
I’M so tired of getting into a tv series to just be canceled that is one reason why I don’t care to get involved with any series Legand of the Seeker was good show and it came on at 2:00 in the morning what the hell are they going to put in it’s place? another silly ass show we have enough of them . Trauma is anothrer show that I liked that was also canceled I think I”m going to stop watching the tv station all together since they are the ones doing the canceling of the shows I watch… Read more »
This was one of my favorite shows!!! I can’t believe the network is canceling it after only two seasons. I love fantasy/sci-fi series and I guess I am going back to reading books. I do not plan to watch any crime, drama, reality, or game shows. The only shows worth watching on ABC is Legend of the Seeker, Lost, Flash Forward, or V. I have listed the shows on how well I liked them and now it seems I will not be watching ABC. I hope maybe CW network will pick up the show. Please see if any other networks… Read more »

I like the show! I can’t believe they are cancelled. This is one of my favorites and my other favorite is Ghost Whisper and it has been cancelled too! Bring them both back.
Wish it wasn’t being cancelled. This show is awesome.Cancel American Idol and Dancing With The Stars.
Amen. Great writing canceled while inane high school-style popularity contests rule the cultural landscape. Ack.
