Which Network Cancels TV Shows the Quickest?

by Jessica Pena, June 21, 2016

Wicked City TV show on ABC: canceled

In November 2015, ABC cancelled their new serial killer drama Wicked City after only three episodes. In March, the network did themselves one better when they axed the biblical drama Of Kings and Prophets after just two episodes. But ABC is hardly the only network with a heavy trigger finger. What do you think?

Which network doesn’t give their shows enough time to catch on? Which show were you sad to see dropped so quickly? We want to know.

Tell us in the comments which network you think cancels shows the quickest?

ANC Chanda Rimes shows. Private Practice & Scandal cancelled way too early. How to Get Away with Murder on the other hand dug its grave by end of season 2. I’m glad Scandal at least went as long as it did.

Up until a few years ago FOX canceled a lot of new shows after a few episodes.

Though all of them are BAD, I would have to say two: ABC and FOX. These network companies are horrible to spend GOOD money on useless shows, entice their viewers, and then cancel them. Why don’t they spend that GOOD money to shows that really had true potential?
