Telly’s Take
Will NBC cancel or renew Taken for season three? Based on the US broadcasts, it was likely to be cancelled after one season. However, the show’s success overseas played into its continuation, so we’ll have to wait and see if that holds true, again — with much lower US ratings this time around.

What do you think? Are you sorry to hear that Taken won’t be renewed for a third season? Do you think that NBC should have cancelled this TV show?
What a shame it’s not going to have a 3rd season. How do they know who likes anything? They never asked me. There are several shows I thought were the best shows ever made and then they cancel the season. I love Madame Secretary watch it be cancelled. Person of Interest was awesome. Longmire, Designated Survivor are just a few. Every time I find a great series they get cancelled, and some stupid awful sitcoms or series goes on forever. Whoever’s job to decide what goes should be fired, or some brains. What a shame they cancelled another good one.… Read more »
I have never voted or wrote something on a show or movie, but this show was good enough to take the time to say to bad it was a great show. I watched it in all in 2 days. What a shame.
Was very disappoined to hear that Taken tv series was cancelled. Hopefully they will decide to bring it back. I want to know what happens next! Maybe even add a couple more team members?? Fingers crossed!!
Yet another stupid decision to cancel a good show. Maybe they should have tried moving it to a different night or time before taking it off. I watched from the beginning and was so excited to have another show that was good to watch.
I can’t believe taken was cancelled. Bummer I watched from the beginning.
I cant believe taken was cancelled. I really like the show and cast. Wow……………
