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?
Yep, another great show cancelled, while those insipid, brain-cell-zapping shows like Kardashians, The Bachelor, Every-Reality-Show-I-Don’t-Have-Time-To-List – – – – get renewed again and again. And left us all hanging to boot. Who ARE these overpaid, out of touch executives making these decisions?
Very disappointed! Very good series and different from others shows out there to watch!
Agreed!!!!
Resurrection was a great show, you made a mistake cancelling it.
I loved loved the show!!! I really hope they reconsider and bring it back. All my friends and I are just devistated they ended it. Please bring it back!!!!!
Why do all the thought provoking shows get cancelled and the moronic ones get renewed?
I can not believe this was cancelled. This was my favorite show. Please bring it back. : (
I like this show. Bring it back..
I think it was a great series. It was a much better shows than some if the others out there.
So upset. My Husband and I kept waiting and wondering when it would return this fall. We are so curious about how the plot would unfold and now terribly disappointed to be left hanging.
Was an awesome show!!!!!!!
So sad to see the show go 🙁 I loved watching it please bring it back!!!
This show was really good. At least they could have explained everything.
How are we to live without the reason those folks returning was never divulged?
I kept missing the regular broadcasts but was able to binge watch via Hulu. Good show although it dragged a bit. No resolution,as usual,sucks. I am tired of investing time in a show and it has no end, why not rip out the last the pages of every book on Amazon, same effect.
This is the worst news. I am disappointed to say the least!
I loved the resurrection and sorry it was cancelled. Was my favorite show. Why was it cancelled, you are disappointing me and my friends who loved the show also.
