Taken has been cancelled so there won’t be a third season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
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. For now though, I’ll keep an eye on the Nielsens and update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on any Taken cancellation or renewal news.

Why cancel an awesome TV Series!!!!
My husband and I have been waiting and waiting for 3rd season of Taken to return to TV. I finally googled to find out when it will return and surprise, surprise it has been canned!!!! Why, why pull the plug on such an awesome TV Series???? I really shouldn’t be surprised, for some reason when good shows are produced, who ever funds the shows don’t get they have a awesome TV Series and they pull the plug to soon!!!!
So agree, the only reason at the moment that I have prime is taken. Not happy Jan
Big mistake cancelling this show!! Everyone I have spoken to said one of the best!!! What is wrong with you people.. The polls all say we want a season three!!! N
It would be great if they return Taken. It’s plots are very unpredictable and very current with the times!
NBC be cancelling real awsome shows and be keeping on12seasons of foolishness , just sell it to Netflix !!!bring back TAKEN
You can’t just end Taken like that there’s no resolution to anything do at least do like a two hour special to have an end that actually makes sense…
Come on guys. IT is NEVER correct to just end a show without a wrap up. Even a wrap up that is a few “specials” long would be worth while.
Create a circumstance where everything changes, and everyone is in “trouble” then just close the door? considering the movie Taken that makes no sense. I would think that the holder of the franchise would not let this happen!
I am interested in the show Taken. I would like to see more seasons of it.
Absolutely would like season 3
Yes! Please do a season 3!
