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.

Stalker is one of my favorite shows and I do not like too many shows that are on TV now. It’s interesting and suspenceful. It should definitely remain on CBS line-up. My friends all agree with me. Give it a chance.
We are huge fans of the show. Have no desire to watch CSI, it’s Stalker or NOTHING.
We hope that the network will reconsider and keep Stalker.
Wow CBS you need to give Stalker a chance to give a series only one season to build a following sucks then their excuses at the end of the season For canceling a show is the ratings fell but what was going on at the end of that season when ratings for being viewed WAS their a news events going on are was other televised specials that were that aren’t normally on at this time you have to look at the big picture not just the bottom line !!!! my hope is Netflix will pick up the series stalker and… Read more »
Yes, I’ll watch the remaining episodes. I love the show. Maybe with better marketing and time slot judgement it would do better.
This show is so great for me! But i think CBS cancelling it based not only on it’s low ratings. Stalker good only when it comes to suspense thriller part but fatal weak at detective aspect, unfortunately, for CBS, i don’t think they feel need to keep another cop procedural which give them nothing new. Male/female leads cliched the show which is another thing that destroying whole concept especially giving that Maggie Q/Dylan Mcdermott, surprisingly, don’t have any spark of chemistry on the screen. Maybe if they change certain things by the end and put more focus on dramatic/thriller part,… Read more »
Definitely would watch the rest of the season but more importantly would want at least another season. Stalker is much better than it’s Cyber replacement, much better than the NCIS New Orleans and much much better than Scorpion. Axe one of those and fit Stalker in the spot.
Seriously ..one series is enough time to make the decision to take it off the air..
The problem with this, we start flipping channels, and find something else,due to the disappointment of removing a great show.. 🙁 it might be months before we flip back to your channel !!
CSI overworked agree, but Scorpion is a must for excitement and educational service long overdue for the folks that are ignored, as exceptional, just as much as the bullying that goes on with those that are least exceptional. It’s called using a person in their best talent. Very insightful for those who have been pretty much ignored, but also bullied or not understood.
I love this show,one season is not enough time to decide of it’s a good show .
When you take a good show off the air, we find another channel.. 🙁
well first of all csi cyber might be on the same time slot, BUT different they air on different days. how’s that a point on their ratings. the network not making good judgment. give a show some time to grow.
Yes, I’ll watch the remaining episodes when CBS airs them. CBS if you’re not going to renew Stalker please wrap up the storyline and give us closure. The Loyal Fans Deserve That at the LEAST!!!!!!
NOW STALKER FANS: RALLY FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO WATCH THIS GREAT SHOW WHEN IT RETURNS!!!!!!
Unlike NBC its nice one of the networks have some common sense. Great show!
