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?
I would love to see the Assets tv on DVD. I loved the program and was looking forward to watching it until the last part. Please whoever makes the decision put this program on DVD and I will buy it.
I would like to see the mini series. Put it on Saturdays if you have to.
You did not give it a chance with only 2 episodes
Yes I want to see the entire series! What a dissappointment.
Seriously guys? Historical, true, IMPORTANT historical docudrama cancelled? Oh right. Must make room for more Bad Girls, Real Housewives of (fill in the blank), Couples Therapy, Mob Wives, Teenage Moms, Snooki & Jwow, Honey Freaking Boo Boo, The Kardashians blah, blah, blah. I completely understand. Why would anyone watch something of value when there’s so much crap out there to ‘entertain’ and enrich us. Shame. Shame. Shame.
Want to see the rest of the episodes! Can’t believe it was pulled in the middle of the story.
Well, I guess I’ll have to buy the book to get the rest of the story. But seriously, it was only an 8 week gig; so I think ABC could have found another day and timeslot to finish the series. I realize that networks run a “standing” game but come on…was ABC that bad in predicting if this series would be watched? I guess I’ll just have to rely on FOX for The Following and CBS for shows like Persons of Interest and Criminal Minds.
Want to see the remaining episodes
want to see the rest of the mini series the assets. my family was fascinated by the history represented. please put it back on!
I like the series and would appreciate 2 things from you:
1. Finish this series by showing it – don’t care what day – I DVR it anyhow.
2. Refrain from pulling the plug on something you don’t like. We still watch “Cougar Town”, it’s much funnier now and you obviously lost out.
Thank you
What a disappointment that they will not show the remaining six episodes. I found this show to be very interesting. Maybe the network should have marketed it better. I stumbled on it by accident and was hooked five minutes in.
I was truly enjoying that series! It was wonderful to see something with intelligence! I would gladly watch it Saturday night, late night or any night! Please make it available for viewing.
I was anxious to see the whole miniseries of The Assets. I kept looking for it in the guide but found other shows instead. I don’t see why the network couldn’t show the entire miniseries instead of taking it off after only 2 episodes. I guess most of our TV audience likes the trashy and brainless shows. It is very disappointing. I would at least like to see the remaining episodes. Saturday nights would be fine with me.
I loved this show. I can’t believe that CBS couldn’t at least show the rest of the episodes on Hulu or even just on ABC.com. I’m sure they filmed them. Wouldn’t have hurt for them o have advertised it more.
No wonder ABC is not doing who well!!!!
Sucks
My husband and I really enjoyed Assets and very disappointed it was pulled. I would love to see the last 6 shows.
I, too, enjoyed this mini series and was very disappointed when I found out it was not to be continued. No wonder ABC is at the bottom.
