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.

I am very disappointed that Taken wss canceled. Looked forward for season 2, and loved the story lines and cast.
Please, please keep Taken and the supreme cast, do not cancel. I look forward to it so much.
Please dont cancel Taken after season 2. It is one of my favorite shows if not my favorite.
Please don’t cancel Taken
I’m sad. I really liked the show. Wish you would b ring it back.
I enjoyed the first season of Taken much better then Season 2 because of the larger cast. Having said that I’m still hoping for a renewal of this show.
I love “Taken.” And Clive Standen. It seems every time my husband and I find a show we both like, it gets cancelled. So disappointed.
We are disappointed that this show is being cancelled. Please reconsider. We enjoyed every show. We would watch it any day/time, if you would reconsider.
Taken is such a well done show. We never miss it. Please don’t cancel it. It is complex, well written, and suspenseful with really nice chemistry between the characters.
we are also upset that taken has been cancelled please bring it back please please please bring it back this is so upsetting
I think Taken the show is better than Taken the movie! Switch the show to any other day of the week besides Friday or Saturday. I guarantee it’ll take off!
Season 2 was an improvement. Give it a chance.
Love this show I hope it’s not cancelled!
I just love the show! I hope it doesn’t get cancelled. It’s the only show I watch on NBC.
Taken is a super great show…one of the very best on t.v…as is Designated Survivor, and Blindspot.
