Sorry Reckless fans, there won’t be a second season of the steamy summer legal drama. CBS has cancelled the series after one season of 13 episodes.
Reckless revolves around a beautiful litigator from the north and a charming southern attorney who must hide their intense mutual attraction as a police sex scandal erupts in Charleston, South Carolina. The TV show’s cast includes Cam Gigandet, Anna Wood, Shawn Hatosy, Georgina Haig, Adam Rodríguez, Michael Gladis, Kim Wayans, and Gregory Harrison.
The series debuted in late June to just a 0.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.99 million total viewers. The numbers didn’t get much better over the course of the season and ended up averaging just a 0.6 demo rating with 3.91 million viewers. The network burned off the final episodes on a Saturday night.
What do you think? Did you like the Reckless TV show? Do you think that it should have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season?
I can’t believe another show is cancelled..It seems like as soon as I start enjoying a show, its gone…Just like Hostages…Everything I watch is on CBS…Now I wonder if thats a good thing…..very mad right now…
NO! DON’T CANCEL IT!!!!

Reckless has strong, vibrant, compelling characters who never show a crack. Credit that largely to the writers who also weave an intriguing story that bends and flows in delightfully sinister ways. Nothing ever seems incongruous or frivolous in the entire production. The actors are beautiful people who are beautifully cast. They appear to take on their individual roles as if they were born to them. And the location wraps this package in delicious colors and textures. Why would you cancel a show that surpasses the quality of the most celebrated productions on TV? To do so after only one season… Read more »

CBS once again believes that the America public would prefer to watch someone getting embarrassed, beat up or lost on a fake reality show. Unbelievable. They finally had a good show and threw it away before even giving it a chance.

C’mon, CBS. We get a GREAT show in the Summer line-up and it’s cancelled. The dialogue is intelligent, the actors are attractive and intriguing to watch. I don’t believe it was given a fair shake to get the ratings it needed to stay. The show just came out of nowhere with very little hype or advertising to get people interested. There were times when the show didn’t air at it’s scheduled time, which wasn’t helpful either. I’ve seen some new shows advertised to the point of wanting to scream, to make certain viewers watched. They were touted as “The funniest”… Read more »
