The doctor is out. USA Network has decided to cancel their Rush TV show after one season of 10 episodes.
Rush revolves around a talented and handsome physician (Tom Ellis) who had it all — but then lost it in one fateful night. Six years later, he’s a private doctor who treats less-than-squeaky-clean clientele in Los Angeles. The rest of the cast includes Harry Hamlin, Larenz Tate, Odette Annable, and Sarah Habel.
Debuting mid-July, the first episode of Rush attracted 1.7 million viewers with a 0.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic. Not a very good start. The numbers for later episodes went up and down and the season averaged 1.65 million with a 0.4 in the demo.
Satisfaction, another new drama, had very similar ratings and either show could have been cancelled or renewed. USA ultimately chose to drop Rush and renew Satisfaction. The defacto series finale aired on September 18th.
What do you think? Did you like Rush? Would you have watched a second season?
I hope some network picks it up, great show
I am baffled, I don’t understand why the show is cancelled.
I looked forward to watching every episodes, it was edgy, and Ellis oh my
was so sexy to watch and played the role well. I believe the Network
should reconsider, and bring it back. I am very disappointed!!!!
This show is one of my favorites please bring this back. You canceling this show is a BIG MISTAKE!!
Please bring Rush back for a second season and give it an actual chance before just canceling it! It’s a great show and Mr. Ellis plays the part perfectly, to many good shows being cancelled before getting the chance to show how great they are going to become.
Bring Rush back, it’s such a great show with the cliff hanger leaving some much potential for a second season!!!’
We loved this show! Please bring it back!
How upsetting. . I really liked watching rush !! I got all my friends into it… sad!!
Rush was a witty, funny, and addictive show. I am so disappointed, we told all of our friends about it….bummer.
Really liked Rush with the different approach to medicine. Good acting too. Why do all my favorite USA shows disappear?
Really disappointed that Rush has been cancelled. Thought it was a different concept and really enjoyed the show. Thought Tom Ellis was excellent. Certainly better than Satisfaction which is not a patch on Rush. Bad decision
Disappointing that Rush not being renewed !
I really looked forward to watching it. I even got friends and family In and out of state interested. Bummer
I loved rush I’m very angry about them taking it off I looked forward to that every Thursday I for got about all the other shows when it was on. …I think they should consider bringing it back….
very disappointed!
just when you get addicted to a new tv series ….they up and cancel it….now there is a void in my life…why not just renw it???
What a disappointment that Rush is not coming back for season 2. This show I look forward to every week… Not satisfied with Satisfaction!
