Cinemax is saying goodbye to Outcast. Deadline reports the network has cancelled the TV show after two seasons.
Based on the comics by Robert Kirkman, the horror series centers on Kyle Barnes (Patrick Fugit), who has been plagued by demonic possession all his life. The cast also includes Philip Glenister, Wrenn Schmidt, David Denman, Reg E. Cathey, Kate Lyn Sheil, Julia Crockett, and Brent Spiner.
Ratings have never been strong for Outcast and season two was no different. The Cinemax series, which just wrapped its second season, earned an average rating of .04 in the 18-49 demo and only 110,000 viewers.
What do you think? Have you seen Outcast? Do you think it deserved a third season?
I am very disappointed. I really liked the cast and the story line.
I absolutely love the show “Outcast”. It is one of the best shows on Cinemax. I normally do not watch that channel but I did for “Outcast”. The storyline was great and all of the actors was fantastic. I especially liked Patrick Fugit. He is a great actor and also good-looking. Please let the TV Gods bring it back and start a season 3. It will be well worth it.
Oh my god that totally sucks I really enjoyed watching Outcast it was one of my favourite shows so pissed!! that’s what these people do you know they get you hooked on their shows and then they bloody cancel it for no reason
“No reason”.
You’re on a ratings site yet you don’t even follow ratings, or understand what they are, and what they mean for a show’s livelihood.
I was disappointed to read that there won’t be a seaon 3 for Outcast. It was one of the few shows that I actually liked. Most of the acting was great (the exception being the child “actors”There is so much ******** on t.v. now, horrible acting, no plot, or character devolpment. Reality “stars” that are only famous for being paparotzi and media/entertainment whores and have no actual talent in ANYTHING! I’m referring to anything on E! They glorify plastic surgory and completley fake unrealstic so called beauty standards. I am disgusted. If this is the future of humanity maybe an… Read more »
Outcast is really good.I would watch a season 3
This is heartbreaking I have loved this show from the start. A session 3 would have been great. This show was never promoted properly. The acting is great the story original and a break from the traditional posession stories. I hope that maybe Outcast can be brought back on another network
I think it deserved a third season,I loved this show!!They Always cancel the good shows nowadays .It sucks.
The show was awesome. Hope someone picks it up. Terrible promotion/advertising. This show deserves a chance. Hope Netflix or Amazon picks it up.
I am so upset that this show has been cancelled. It was getting so good. Last weeks show was phenomenal. I feel the show should be given another season. I need to know what happens. The acting is incredible and the story line riveting. Is there a way to protest this? Is it possible it could continue on Netflix or another channel? What can we do as fans to help save this show?!
I watched season one and two one after the other. I didn’t have Cinemax until this year. I would love to have more! Kirkman is a a known commodity! Come on please!?
Must have a season 3! Any show that makes people think gets cancelled. Cinemax, you are making a big mistake. Just cancelled my subscription. Hopefully Netflix/Amazon/Hulu will pick it up!
Very disappointed that this excellent show as cancelled.
I LOVED season 2!!!!! I want to see what happens!!!!! Its not the shows fault you didn’t deliver the show on time!!! Or keep the fans updated! I had to stalk the web over a year to see what the hell was going on and why the second season wasn’t on!!!!! You suck and I hope Netflix picks it up and you go out of business because I am canceling my cable upgrade for your channel!
Outcast was awesome. The problem was that it wasn’t advertised enough. I had never heard of it until a few weeks ago and i binged it all in a week. I hope someone else picks it up. Great show.
Plus the 2nd season didn’t come out for 2 years after the 1st
Season 2 aired in the UK nearly a year and a half ago, so anyone that wanted to, could’ve watched in on-line already. That didn’t help the numbers, plus the second season wasn’t nearly as good as the first. People probably forgot it was even on because of the two years between seasons in the US.
Tried to watch online here in the US. Not available until about a week ago. I’m so upset I cancelled my Cinemax subscription!
