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.
Hope CBS broadcasts the rest of the episodes very soon. Episode 17 ended with quite the cliffhanger. This is very good show and it’s a shame the ratings have not been higher. I love Maggie Q and have been a fan for years. The writing has been exciting and the acting has been very good.
I wish CBS would renew it as a ten to 13 episode annually series.

Please don’t cancel
Have watched from the beginning. Love crime shows and this one is different. Great actors but need the writers to get a little more creative with the story lines. Please keep for a second year as I do believe it will catch on to more viewers as people talk more about the show.
Don’t cancel love the show, please!
My mother just recently suggested watching the show Stalker.. I never have the time to see what is new.. or even think to look anymore.. but I took her suggestion and I was hooked from the first episode. All caught up and very disappointed to hear that it may be cancelled. Ugh.. I hate that they are using “CSI-CYBER” has already received better ratings. Of course it has, you stuck it in there at the time that stalker is supposed to be airing.. now it’s being watched by the people that were waiting and hoping that stalker has finally returned!… Read more »
Keep Stalker…. its really a great series… my mom and i love to watch it…
I love Stalker, much more than CSI Cyber. People must not know about it!
Please renew “Stalker” it’s a great show and has lost of potential to grow. If anything needs to be cancelled it should be “Big Brother” and “The Bachelor”. Bring back and keep quality Tv please!!!
Keep Stalker…it’s awesome! Get rid of CSI Cyber…it gets difficult to understand due to technicalities…
Please keep stalker!!! Love all the crime shows but this has a new twist!
Keep Stalker…love it!! Cancel CSI:Cyber…unless you are a “techy”, it can be difficult to understand…
Bring it back different is better!! And this show is different!! DON’T cancel it!!!
I was hooked on this show from the first episode. The characters were being developed and relationships were growing. The storylines were intriguing. Please bring this show back for the second season it deserves. Did we really need another CSI??
This is my favorite show on television! And I’m a fan of several shows that are well into their veteran seasons but I became a fam from the very beginning. It’s the only show I watch on CBS’ network other than the Big Bang Theory. I think it’s a huge mistake on CBS’ part to have replaced it with another run of the mill show. I really hope they bring it back and renew it or I hope another network picks it up.. I don’t care what network it’s on as long as it’s on the air. It’s sooooo good!
Don’t cancel! Have watched from the first episode!
