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?
Im mad that’s why NBC is always LOSING!!! EVEN THEIR LOCAL NEWS HERE IN MY CITY SUCKS! I would have loved to see this show develop into more! I mean dang so many unanswered questions!
Yeah,another example of why nbc network executive decisions suck…
YES I LOVED THE SHOW NOW NO ONE WILL WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO ANYONE I THINK IT IS A SHAME THAT YOU COULD NOT LEAVE IT ON VERY UPSET MAY NOT WATCH YOUR NETWORK ANY LONGER AND I KNOW ALOT THAT ARE UPSET
Few times we have had the opportunity to see a different kinds of drama as a family, we enjoy this serie…it is not fair that these kind of decisions are made now …. Who Could let us know the end of this great serie? … no intention to see any other ABC series without a guarantee to see the end!
This was a great show. Could have at least given an ending!
I am SO disappointed that “Resurrection” will not be back. I loved the cast and characters and really wanted to see what the 3rd season would hold. It was fun trying to figure out what was going on and why. I really feel like there is no sense of closure…to be melodramatic…and feel like we are just left hanging with no idea what the outcome was. Bummer for sure! Hopefully, another network will pick this show up and run with it! Would LOVE to see it “alive again”!
I have been waiting for this to return. I decided to google and find out when it was coming back on. GREATLY disappointed that this is not coming back on. This is one of my favorite shows. NO ONE was disturb me when I was watching this series. I hope that someone changes there mind on this series. I love it…it’s outstanding.
I enjoyed the show. It satisfied my fondness for mystery and science fiction. Too bad it was canceled but I’ve learned many good shows get the boot…and many shows stay on past their expiration date.
Well, that stinks. My family enjoyed watching a show with no cussing. That is a rarity in this day and time.. I guess we will have to find another family type show to watch and make our own conclusion to this wonderful show.
I enjoyed the show and was looking forward to its return :(.
My 8 year old son and I lived this show. I am very sad that it did not come back on. We were anxious awaiting to find out what caused them to return….
Yes I loved the show I am really wanted to see what came next sad that its over.
I can’t believe you’re canceling the show and are keeping us hanging. It would be nice to have a finale if you’re going to end the show. Imy wally getting feed up with my shows being given canceled. It seems you get totally involved in a show just to have it canceled. I’m at the point right now where I don’t want to watch new shows anymore because I don’t want to get involved just to have it canceled on me again. I couldn’t wait for this show to come on Sunday nights. I am truly pissed off that I… Read more »
I really liked this show wish it wasn’t cancelled. I hope the network changes there minds or another network picks it up to make a couple more season. So we can at least end with knowing way love ones are returning from the dead.
I LOVED this show. I dont watch many if any modern day tv series, but I did this one. Maybe another network will pick it up and continue the story a few more seasons to a final reason as to why our loved ones were returning from the grave. I am going to miss this one very much. Extremely sorry to see it go!!!!
I’m sorry that it wasn’t given more of a chance.I followed the series, and would have enjoyed seeing more. it was original and not just another repeat of every other program on the air
