The little sitcom that caused a lot of controversy last summer has quietly ended its run. NBC has cancelled Outsourced after one season on the air.
Outsourced follows a US sales manager, Todd Dempsey (Ben Rappaport), who’s assigned to supervise his company’s call center in India. The sitcom also stars Anisha Nagarajan, Diedrich Bader, Parvesh Cheena, Pippa Black, Rebecca Hazelwood, Rizwan Manji, and Sacha Dhawan.
The NBC sitcom started out decently and it looked like NBC might have a keeper on its hands. Last September, Outsourced debuted to a 3.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 7.49 million viewers. In week two, the demo number fell 22% to a 2.8 rating and 5.85 million viewers but that was still pretty healthy by NBC standards.

Unfortunately, over the course of the season, the ratings just kept dwindling downward. The ratings have gone as low as a 1.4 in the demo with just 2.97 million viewers. Those are horrible numbers for a major network, even NBC.
Outsourced’s season currently averages a 2.1 demo rating and 4.55 million viewers. For NBC, that’s not too bad but the average is only that high because of the early season ratings.
It’s certainly not a shocker than NBC has cancelled Outsourced after just one season. The 22nd and final episode, titled “Rajiv Ties the Bharat, part two,” aired last night.
What do you think? Are you disappointed that there won’t be a second season of Outsourced? Why do you think the TV show didn’t catch on?

Please dont let go such great story
MAKE SEASON 2 OF OUTSOURCED
Outsourced is unique and one of a kind.
It cannot be compared with other commedies.
So, plz start again 🙁
the series totally called my attention now that they are showing season one in Latinamerica. I think the serie will probably be more succesful in countries like in Europe. Probably not many Americans are ready for intercultural exchange, and theydon’t care about other cultures.
This is the reachness of this series that can impove with time in their jokes and themes. But the ideas of learning every time a bit of how this fascinating and so different clulture lives there life is very intresting, and they make it fun.
a total shame not to try a second season
Outsourced iz a really great movie guys.Pls dnt let a great story like that go waste.PLEASE!
WE NEED OUR BEST MOVIE BACK
HELP US WITH THIS AND GOD WILL RICHLY BLESS YOU
