(Spike TV)
It seems the fog has burned off. Spike has cancelled The Mist TV show after just one season. Based on the Stephen King novella, The Mist first premiered on Spike TV on June 22, 2017. The Viacom-owned channel will rebrand as “Paramount Network,” in early 2018. A few months prior to its first and only season debut, Kevin Kay, president of Paramount Network, TV Land and CMT said the new TV series had “potential,” and that they would renew it for season two, if the first season found “success” on Spike.
Airing on the Spike cable channel, The Mist stars Morgan Spector, Alyssa Sutherland, Gus Birney, Danica Curcic, Okezie Morro, Luke Cosgrove, Darren Pettie, Russell Posner, Dan Butler, Isiah Whitlock Jr., and Frances Conroy. After the Copeland family’s daughter survives a brutal attack, an ominous mist overwhelms the town of Bridgeville, Maine. As it spreads, it threatens the very foundations of the town.
The Mist: A Look at the Ratings
The first season of The Mist averaged a 0.14 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 462,000 viewers. Because The Mist was the cable channel’s first original scripted series, we don’t have ratings data from other Spike TV shows to which we can compare it.
Deadline has confirmed The Mist cancellation with Spike.
What do you think? Did you watch the first season of The Mist TV series? Should Spike have cancelled or renewed it for a second season? Let us know, below.
Totally bring back the mist. I didn’t know the show from spike didn’t even know it was it was aired on tv. I watch the entire season on Netflix and love it. Don’t go by spike rating go by Netflix ratings and bring back the mist.
loved the show it was some thing different also be fan of the movie to so bring back the mist
We really enjoyed “The Mist”. Loved it, in fact! Wish they would reconsider and make another season!!
Yal suck ass that was a good show
Please make a second season the first one was fantastic and everyone I shouldn’t show it to loves the mist.
I’m pretty sure it was cancelled because one of the producers is Harvey Weinstein…… sigh…. so unfair because I love this show.
It was cancelled because it was poorly done, lame characters and a very weak plot with no development. The movie and novella were so good….this was a spit in the eye.
I really liked the show & wish it hadnt been cancelled.
sucha good ******* show I’m so sad there will be no season 2 but you know if they would of aired this on like AMC or something it would of took the **** off the walking dead did pretty ******* awesome and this show was way better than that show they needed to target a different audience it was a mistake to put this show on spike I hope someone one sees the potential this show has and continues it
this show should not be cancelled!! please bring back the show. it is a hit and needs to be continued.!!!!!
Just finished watching on Netflix. Why sis the military kicking people off the train? What is the military involvement with the Mist? I must know!!
Please Netflix pickup the show and conclude with season 2.
I would have loved for a second season to come around. The first season had me and it was really good. I want to see what happens next and…I would relish in Adrian dying. That little cockroach, and Jay shouldn’t have died. The dad, thief, and Brian Hunt were good and I want to see where they go. Alright, Spike/Paramount Network, bring it back like a good little zombie.
I reaaly love this show! I’m hoping for season 2! Please
Hate it when I get into a TV show only to get disappointed when finding out there will be no more seasons…
Please make season 2 for the mist.
I really wish this tv show had not been cancelled, but yet again I got drawn into it just to be disappointed to now know there will be no second series. I am really fed up now of these tv shows starting and then being cancelled. And why the hell they don’t bring a satisfactory conclusion to the end when they obviously know it’s going to be dropped. I’m seriously thinking of cancelling my Netflix account now just so as I don’t start watching something else just to be totally fed up at the end.
