CBS recently dropped Stalker from their schedule and replaced it with a new TV show, CSI: Cyber. Now, there’s word that it’s coming back on the air — but for how long?
A cop thriller, Stalker follows the work of the LAPD’s Threat Assessment Unit, a team that investigates incidents of stalking. The TV show stars Dylan McDermott, Maggie Q, Victor Rasuk, and Mariana Klaveno.
After airing 17 of the show’s first season episodes, CBS took Stalker off the air. However, according to star Maggie Q, fans will get a chance to see the remaining episodes. She recently tweeted, “That’s a wrap on Stalker Season 1! We are back on the air at the end of the month! Thank you so much for your support!”
So far, there’s been no official word from the network regarding the unaired episodes. That seems a little unusual considering there’s less than two weeks left in the March.
While it’s good news that viewers will (hopefully) get a chance to see the remaining unaired episodes, it doesn’t change the fact that Stalker’s unlikely to be renewed for a second season. The ratings have been a disappointment at best and, so far, CSI: Cyber’s been doing much better in the same timeslot.
What do you think? Will you be watching the remaining episodes of Stalker — whenever they air? Do you think the series should be cancelled or renewed?
4/1 update: Stalker returns on May 4th. Details here.
I enjoy Stocker very much, and do not want to see it canceled. How can you say a show does not have good enough ratings when you kept using its time slot for anything you wanted to? Then turn around and blame it with bad ratings. It’s a good show and needs a chance. Any good series has to have time for it’s public to get to know the character. You have a great series with a following which will get bigger if you would just give it a chance.
RENEW RENEW RENEW – Really it is a good show. Keep it on.
I love the show and was very disappointed to hear that is cancelled!!
I agree with Christine, waaayyyy too many CSI’s, lets watch something exciting and different with great acting, like Stalker.
Honestly! I love this show. Every freaking show I love is taken off the air practically. There is SO MUCH garbage that somehow remains on, and yet these suspenseful, intriguing shows get canceled. (Plus, they are the ones with the superior actors, too.)
Why are we subjected to the mindless drivel that requires no thought—please KEEP AT LEAST ONE SERIES—this ONE—on for US.
Stalker is a fantastic show!!! Please don’t cancel it! I’m rapidly awaiting every week for it to be on!
My daughter and I love Stalker. We have looked forward to it every week. The show is not only a thriller it has great actors that make story line come alive. My daughter has 3 babies under 4 years old, so she makes sure that Stalker is recorded so she can see them later. Her husband and mine have become great fans, too.
Renew
Stalker is a much better show than CSI Cyber. I have tried to like the latter with no success. I would hope Stalker might be considered for another season. I look forward to seeing the remaining episodes for this first season.
I am so glad the remaining episodes of Stalker will be shown but please consider renewing for at least one more season. Give it a chance and you might be surprised. It is actually very good and will bring new viewers who haven’t had a chance to discover it yet.
I sure friggin hope it comes back, the wife and I really enjoy the show!!
I believe it is one of the best shows on. The networks dont give shows a chance and the writers dont seem to be writing good plots anymore. And ofcourse they dont allow the shows to run long enough with out interruptions ie football rtc.
So glad to hear Stalker is coming back! Please renew this show. One of the best new shows in a long time.
Stalker is well acted and has a good plot. I don’t understand why this show might be cancelled while The Bachelor and other trashy reality shows survive. Many tv viewers must be of an adolescent mind set. Too bad!
Please renew Stalker. I loved it. I am looking forward to the episodes which were not aired. You really left us hanging with the last episode played.
LOVE Stalker!! Bring it back! I do DVR it, as well as Criminal Minds and watch when I get home from the gym. I don’t even know what Cyber is, don’t watch it, don’t care to either.
Too many CSI’s…..done with them. Stalker is more original….and Dylan McDermott is not too bad on the eye!! I also loved him on Hostages and was disappointed when that ended. I don’t think networks give people enough time to get really invested in shows.
