This evening, we say goodbye to Sam and Eddie from the Take Two TV show. While the alphabet network hasn’t cancelled the summer TV show, it does seem highly unlikely that they’ll renew it for a second season. What do you think?
An ABC crime comedy-drama from Castle creators Terri Edda Miller and Andrew W. Marlowe, Take Two stars Rachel Bilson, Eddie Cibrian, Xavier de Guzman, Aliyah O’Brien, Alice Lee, and Jordan Gavaris. The story centers on actress Sam Swift (Bilson), who, after an epic, viral breakdown has to rehab her image and rebuild her career. She asks to shadow lone-wolf private investigator, Eddie Valetik (Cibrian), who resents the gig, but soon finds her acting experience comes in handy on the job.
The Take Two series debuted in June and got off to a poor start, attracting a 0.50 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 3.36 million viewers. The ratings dropped lower during the course of the season and perked up occasionally.
To be fair, the series was pre-empted a few times over the course of the season which surely didn’t help things. Take Two also had to sometimes contend with football game pre-emptions and delays in some markets. Those didn’t help the ratings but the show just didn’t attract much of an audience right from the start.
There were some boosts in delayed viewing but, delayed viewing doesn’t typically generate commercial revenue for a network. It seems unlikely that ABC will renew Take Two for a second season but, because it’s a summer show, there’s a chance they may decide to revamp the program a bit and give it another try in 2019.
What do you think? Do you like the Take Two TV show? Would you like to see it be renewed for a second season or, do you think it should be cancelled?
Please renew Take Two. I really enjoyed the show, and always looked forward to the next episode.
Please renew. Good show that’s entertaining and makes me look forward to it coming on each week!! Do not cancel!!!
Yes loved this show! Please renew!!!
Yes I loved this show. Please renew!!!
Please renew. It was funny and entertaining.
Please renew. I really enjoyed this show
Yes there should definitely be a season two!! So many of the current shows are so dark and even though this one is about murder it has great characters and some comedy as well
Yes please let there be a season two
Yes Please it is fun
Please renew this show. It seems like every good show gets the boot before it can really catch on. This show is a wonderful show, great story lines and character development and good for the whole family.
Yes, please renew! Should be regular, not just summer series.
Why do the networks take off good shows with plots and keep renewing these crap reality shows? I am sick of this, I think I’ll leave T.V. along and go back to reading good books.
Yes, please renew! My husband and I both loved Take Two and looked forward to watching it every week. We will be extremely disappointed if you don’t renew it. We were faithful Castle watchers and I always remarked about how talented the writers were! The fact that Take Two is created by the same writers, I’m confident that you have another winner on your hands! Please give it a fair chance by airing it during the regular season.
It was a light hearted show perfect for summer. I’d watch another season. Eddie Cibrian is great in the role.
I just started watching Take Two 3 weeks ago and caught up with season 1. The show is entertaining and interesting. I would like to see a season 2! To many shows get the boot when they should be given time for more people to catch on to them.
