To no surprise, ABC has pulled its very low-rated mini-series The Assets from the Thursday lineup.
For the next three weeks, the 10pm timeslot will be filled by Shark Tank reruns. It’s unclear what will fill the timeslot after that. Scandal is expected to return on February 27th.
It’s unclear what will become of the remaining six episodes of The Assets.
What do you think? Did you enjoy the series? Would you like to see the leftover episodes released online, on DVD as part of a full series set, or aired on Saturday nights?
What happened? The show was so interesting. I was waiting for the 3d episode but… For me it was a special show. My Dad served in US army in Moscow embassy, fell in love with a Russian woman, my Mom, and was forced to stay in the USSR. I wrote a book about it – Stationed in Moscow… for good which was on Amazon best sellers list. I cannot figure out why it was cancelled, especially now.
This story was so interesting. I could not wait for the third episode. Why the show was cancelled? I was born in Russia. My Dad served in the US army and was stationed in Moscow US Embassy after WW two, fell in love with a Russian woman, my Mom, and was forced to stay in the Soviet Union by KGB. I wrote a book about it – Stationed in Moscow… for good. It is on Amazon and was on best sellers list. So for me the show Assets was very interesting. I am very upset!
We enjoyed the and are disappointed it has been cancelled
I remember the story and was very interested in watching the series. Can’t believe some of the junk that they will put on tv, then cancel a show that has some serious content.
We loved the show and have been looking everywhere for it!!! Shark tank really!!!!! Please put it back on!!!
If ABC pulls with no notice….how do they expect to keep their fans for other shows?
I enjoyed the first two of THE ASSETS…..and with no notice….couldn’t find it moving forward…..not impressed with ABC!
Please finish the series. I rarely watch a series on reegular TV (love SCANDAL)…..does this mean I need to go back to promoting cable TV stations…HBO, SHOWTIME?????
Keep us updated!!!
I enjoyed the show, can’t believe it was canceled. Please show the rest of the show!
Loved the show and the interesting history involved. This is the ONLY series that was interesting enough for my husband to watch!
I would love it if the remaining series would be made available either on DVD or on Cable On Demand.
Loved the show. Had some great interesting history to it. Same that they didn’t make a better announcement in cancelling and have people searching their local listings for it.
The fact there was no publicity a about them cancelling was disgusting. I was looking forward to the 3rd show and got a rerun of a jerky show.
Loved the show!
Seriously? Just leave viewers hanging?
I DVR the first two shows and was looking for the third. Very disappointed that it was cancelled. Shame on ABC.
Come on! Finally a great show with history and it gets canceled. No wonder I couldn’t find it. Please air the remanding episcopes.
Really liked the show. Not sure why it was cancelled. Hopefully they will air at a later time. Really disappointed with ABC. Really the Shark Tank. Isn’t one night enough for this show.
We are so disappointed that ABC cancelled this interesting and thought provoking show. Please sell the remaining episodes to another network.
Irks us too, RL! And, yes, they will probably air one of those adult cartoons in its place so kids can watch inappropriate, meaningless shows, or a silly “reality” show…
Yes, network people, we would really appreciate it if you would please air the remaining episodes (or all eight) on Saturday evenings. As we did with the first two, we will record them and watch them when we find the time.
My husband and I were enjoying the episodes that did air and we were telling others about it. Then we were all disappointed when we could not find it on tv. Thankfully we found out here what happened. Yes we would like to continue with the other episodes.
It is a weird feeling not finishing it.
I was really looking forward to seeing this mini-series. I thought it was very good so I was surprised when I went to watch the 3rd episode that I couldn’t find it. I didn’t think they would cancel a mini-series. What a shame. I hope they show the rest of it sometime even if it’s in the middle of the night. I’ll record it.
