NBC is done with this case. The network has cancelled the Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector TV show so it won’t be returning for a second season.
Based on the novel The Bone Collector by Jeffery Deaver, the drama series brings former NYPD detective and forensic genius Lincoln Rhyme (Russell Hornsby) out of retirement to hunt for an enigmatic serial killer who left him paralyzed. The cast also includes Arielle Kebbel, Brían F. O’Byrne, Tate Ellington, Courtney Grosbeck, Ramses Jimenez, Brooke Lyons, Roslyn Ruff, and Michael Imperioli.
Airing on Friday nights, the first season of Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector averaged a 0.47 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.66 million viewers.
While the show’s ratings were quite low, even for a Friday night show, it wasn’t NBC’s lowest-rated scripted series. Of the network’s shows for the 2019-20 season, Lincoln Rhyme ranked 14th out of 19 scripted series. Fellow first-year NBC shows Perfect Harmony and Sunnyside have also been cancelled.
What do you think? Have you seen Lincoln Rhyme: Hunt for the Bone Collector? Would you have watched season two on NBC?
Why do all the “good clean entertainment shows” all get cancelled? While so much garbage is left to air year after year. It’s to the point that watching TV has become a nightmare of constant channel surfing, only to find nothing good to watch except prerecorded reruns. Come on people leave the decent programming on and cut out some of the garbage we don’t want our kids to watch.
I agree with everyone else about what a good show that it was. The last show did show a sneak preview of Season 2 and now to find out that it was canceled. So why was a sneak preview of Season 2 even aired if you knew that it was going to be canceled? I was a loyal watcher and I saw some similarities between the movie and the series. I don’t know why the good shows get cancelled. Most of the shows that I do watch are on NBC but I will not mention the names of the shows.… Read more »
