The show about people returning from the dead — is now dead itself. ABC has cancelled their Resurrection TV series after two seasons on the air.
On Resurrection, a small town in Missouri is turned upside down when long-dead loved ones return after 30 years. The cast includes Omar Epps, Frances Fisher, Matt Craven, Devin Kelley, Mark Hildreth, Samaire Armstrong, Sam Hazeldine, Landon Gimenez, and Kurtwood Smith.
The series debuted well but the ratings declined over the course of its first season — averaging a 2.52 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.32 million viewers. The network brought it back anyway and the second season debut was down by more than 40% when compared to the series debut.
By the end of the second season, Resurrection’s second year ratings average was at a 1.26 rating in the demo with 4.67 million — a season-to-season decline of 50%.
The last episode aired on January 25th and sadly didn’t offer viewers a resolution to the story.
What do you think? Did you like this series? Are you sorry that Resurrection won’t be returning for a third season?
I am still greatly disappointed for Resurrection being cancelled. I enjoyed it so much and was looking forward to at least have an end to the story hoping for some characters to come back and others to finish their journey. Never been so disappointed before with other shows or series. This one was unique and different.
We really liked Resurrection and just now got to the last one. Am disappointed that there aren’t anymore.
Still waiting.
I am really disappointed this show was cancelled. I was ssssoooo intrigued and could not wait foe next episode! Please please finish the story. I see there is a similar show starting called the crossing. I will be watching it only hope it can fascinate & captivate me to fill the void of The Reurrection.
I agree! They owe us an ending or an explanation as to why they can’t. I loved this show too. Please resurrect this show and give us the ending we are all asking for.
it was rude on ABC,S part to have canceled ressurection ABC has lost me as a viewer.
this sucks I was just getting into it..waiting
So upset this show ended without an explanation. Such an interesting storyline. If you are going to drop a series….at least make an ending to it.
I really liked it, but would watch it on Demand, a few episodes at a time. It’d get scary and emotional so I’d wait and regroup for more!
Loved, Loved, this show, please bring it back…great cast, story line was was awesome,…
OMG, What an awesome series; Please bring it back. Talented cast, great story line. A 3rd season would be awesome to bring this series to closure.
Every time I think about it, I get teary. Such a great series, yes, very talented cast. They should do another season at least. Other series not as good and they are still playing
I just binge-watched the whole series. Really enjoyed it. Again. Wish it was still on. I think they had an enormous pool of material and a talented cast.
