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 HATE Hollywood. I HATE ratings. I think there should be an entertainment law in place that if you start a show, you are required to FINISH IT. END OF STORY.
Outcast is a good show with a lot of potential. It was a little slow at times which might contribute to a decline of viewers. It really should stay on cable, however, because it would change the rating making it a PG show, and would soften the horror genre. Please bring it back and make it scarier!
I was very disappointed to discover that Outcast season 3 has been canceled, was so excited to check on the status of season 3. Getting frustrated that all the great television shows are being canceled, and not finished. Going to cancel my subscription to Cinemax tomorrow the only reason I kept it was for this series, can get the movies on my other pay channels, everybody else should do the same, enough people cancel maybe they’ll bring Outcast back. Please, please bring it back and finish the story.
Love love loved outcast . Put it on reg station then . I only reason ppl wouldn’t watch is if they had no clue it was on .
I will soooooo miss this series
I absolutely love outcast I got into watching it please bring back the show. I’m hooked on it
U can’t b serious… I binge watched two seasons of Outcast, loving every second, couldn’t wait for the next episode, literally on the edge of my seat to know what happens next and I look to c when season 3 will b aired to find out its been canceled…….. I’m crushed. This isn’t fair. I don’t find a whole lot of shows that I want more of and u guys cancel it after only two seasons……. I’m very disappointed… The show needs to finish. Come on… Plz
Outcast is phenomenal! this show warrants a 3rd season.
I loved Outcast. I’m bombed that it is not returning for season 3. As another fan wrote, there was no other series like Outcast. It was unpredictable. I hope Netflix or Hulu-Somebody picks it up! Seriously, what else is there to watch on Cinemax?!
Outcast was an awesome series!! I watched both seasons in 2 days! I couldn’t stop & am so sad there won’t be another season. I bought a subscription to Cinemax just to watch it, guess I’ll cancel now there won’t be another one coming out.
I watched the series on demand, and I’m upset that they just left me hanging. I was looking forward to the third season
I absolutely LOVE OUTCAST!! I am so disappointed that it wasn’t picked up for a 3rd season! What about moving to another network or streaming network like Netflix or Hulu?? I think it has so much potential & very capable of success!! Especially with a streaming network!! I can only hope!
Cinamax, the killer of even the best shows. If it was on anything else it would have had a chance.
It’s a great show. Not like anything else on, that’s why I like it. So many shows are so similar that they get boring, but it not this one. You never knew what was going to happen next, kept you on the edge of your seat. I wish they would reconsider or at least another network picks it up. They should have at least given it an ending ( added a couple of episodes to wrap it up ) I hate when shows just stop, and leave you hanging. That’s the # 1 complaint with shows, they just stop and… Read more »
I missed season 2 and am now just watching it. Its great. A 3rd season is a must. I bet if you put it on netflix there would be more seasons. It’s just a lot of people don’t have cable or cenamax anymore.
People dont appreciate unique stories anymore. This show should have done well, but the average veiwer clearly has no taste.
