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 did quite the same as you, David H. For many years now I’ve stayed away from major network television, and stuck with CW, SyFy, TNT, Lifetime, TBS, and the like. The only reason I’m watching a CBS show now is because it has Maggie Q in it. I loved her as Nikita, and I love her in this show… I love this show! So I guess that’s why it’s going to be cancelled, because God forbid anyone should actually be able to enjoy something without it being jerked out from under them. If Stalker goes (and Forever on ABC,… Read more »
It would be a shame if this show does not come back! What an amazing show and cast! I very much hope that if CBS does not bring it back that one of the other networks will.
I absolutely wil be waiting to watch it. I loved it, thought it was different. I hate when this happens. I hope they at least show the rest and end it with us knowng what happens to the characters.
Hi there. I would really like to see the rest of season one of Stalker as well as any other seasons that can be made. I thought it was a brilliant series. I live in South Africa and got to watch the series through a friend. I think that the producers show carry in making the series and perhaps have someone other than CBS View it. I don’t know how it works in America and who has the right to say yes or no to more seasons but I personally believe that it is wrong to not give the show… Read more »
PLEASE let us see the remaining episodes! And renew for next season. I love it! It is one of my favorite shows! All of my friends and family love it too. I don’t understand why the good shows like this get cancelled. CSI Cyber is ok but Stalker is by far a better show. Love all the characters and the theme of it. I was so very disappointed when it was replaced! What I’d wrong with you people?
I like STALKER — it’s different, the characters are likeable, and the scares are much more frightening than zombies or vampires. Stalking actually happens. I’ll watch any remaining episodes and hope the powers to be decide to give the show another season.
Yes, of course I will watch the remaining shows.. I really enjoy it.
Please don’t cancel Stalker! It is one of my favorite shows 🙁 I’d be over the moon if Stalker makes a second season.
I love this show. I’m disappointed
Please do not cancel this show! Enough CSI programs!!!!
Need to keep this show, let some of the other shows go. csi cyber. maybe if you keep the good shows people would start watching them
yes I will watch the remaining shows! why do they put shows on for one season and then get rid of them. I love the show STALKER and I don’t think you give these shows a chance, there are so many to watch when they all first come out it takes awhile to sort through them all to find your fav’s! yet you smother us with any and all reality shows out there!!!
I totally agree with you. Well said. Thank u.
This is an awesome show! It is way better than CSI-Cyber, no comparison! Please bring it back for a second season!
I agree. Stalker is great and I love Maggie Q. CSI-Cyber is too technical and therefore boring.
I followed this show from the start. Mean to leave us with so many hanging threads. I definitely would want to see this season resolve and give the cast another season to see their characters develop.
I imagine the executives at NBC,CBS,and ABC sit in staff meetings wondering why their shows that have great actors,story lines and drama fail to get ratings. I think it is because the viewing audiences do not trust them anymore. Many years ago I switched to the cable networks like AMC,TNT,SCI-FY etc. when deciding what series to follow as they seem to be more loyal to their followers. The series on cable stations seem to have more staying power. It takes more than 4 or 5 episodes to create a loyal following. I am going to stop investing time in the… Read more »
