Rebel may have a second shot. IMDb TV is looking to possibly revive the cancelled ABC series, per Deadline. Episodes from the first season will be released on the streaming service, and if those episodes receive enough attention from viewers – a second season is possible.
Katey Sagal, Andy Garcia, John Corbett, James Lesure, Lex Scott Davis, Tamala Jones, Ariela Barer, Kevin Zegers, and Sam Palladio star in the series which is loosely based on the life of Erin Brokovich. ABC cancelled Rebel five episodes into its first season following a heavy promotional push.
Fans immediately wanted Rebel to be saved but no broadcaster or streaming service jumped in to pull Rebel out of the cancellation pool – until now. The cast is still under contract, so a save is still possible.
IMDb TV gave For Life a similar opportunity on the service. Episodes of the cancelled ABC arrived on the streaming service earlier this month. It is not known when IMDb TV will make a decision about the future of either drama.
What do you think? Do you still want a second season of Rebel? Do you plan to watch season one of Rebel on IMDb TV?
I love the show. Something different and fiesty. Please bring the show back. Of all shows that should be canceled, Rebel isn’t one of them. The cast are an amazing bunch. It’s great to see someone fighting for the underdogs and fighting the big profiteers who are clueless.
Great show and ensemble cast. Couldn’t believe they cancelled so quickly. Didn’t give it a chance. Definitely needs a season 2.
So true. I love watching it. Love Rebel.
YES TO REBEL! What a great show, great cast, great stories…I’m very invested in this awesome show already! Katie brings it!!! They all do. I have been hoping for this news…yes, please give Rebel a chance at new life!
Rebel was the best show of the season. Very talented acting and interesting story line. I couldn’t wait for the following weeks episode. A show the entire family could watch together and enjoy.
Please please bring this show back!!!! Very enjoyable.
Please return rebel to your line up
I really love this show
ABC is famous for cancelling GREAT shows like REBEL. The show was just hitting its stride in all areas ie story lines, acting, directing etc. when ABC cancelled it. I will support any group that brings the show back for season 2 and beyond. Even though I have already watched all of the shows of REBEL for season 1 I will be more than excited to watch the streaming season 1 again. I believe, given a reasonable chance this should could be long lasting and something to look forward to watching. So YES for streaming, watching and looking forward to… Read more »
YEAH!!! I check EVERY SINGLE DAY on tvseriesfinale.com to see if they are bringing it back. I LOVE that show! The acting is EXCELLENT, the story was so interesting. I’m looking forward to what case they will be working on next season. What else can I say??? BRING IT BACK!
Totally agree!!!
YES!!!! I love this show. AlreadyBeenCancelled sucks- maybe another network will give it the treatment it deserves!
YES YES YES please pick it up. We love this fun show and don’t want it cancelled. Thank you for considering it!
Loved it please bring it back soon
Fingers crossed it does get picked up .. but it would be preferable if it were by one of the major networks as opposed to a streaming service that not everyone has access to! Just sayin’.
People have Prime Video. If not, then it is free on the IMDb app.
If you have Amazon Prime, they stream the IMDB TV channel as part of your Amazon Prime membership. IMDB TV brought back Leverage – the new Leverage:Redemption series and we watched every episode for free. If IMDB TV would air Season 1 of Rebel and greenlight a new Season 2 of Rebel, I’d be happy to see Season 1 again and the new Season 2. Writing and casting were great.
Loved the show….BRING IT BACK!
A great show. Please don’t cancel it! The cast really fits together. One of the better shows on awhile!
I sure hope they do! I thought the show was excellent!
