Emma and Charles won’t get to continue to work things out during the 2023-24 broadcast season. ABC has cancelled The Company You Keep, so that it won’t return for a second season.
A drama series, The Company You Keep TV show stars Milo Ventimiglia, Catherine Haena Kim, William Fichtner, Tim Chiou, Freda Foh Shen, James Saito, Sarah Wayne Callies, Felisha Terrell, and Polly Draper. Sachin Bhatt recurs. In the story, Charlie Nicoletti (Ventimiglia) is a masterful high-stakes con man who commits crimes with his family. He also runs a bar with his bossy older sister, Birdie (Calles). Their con parents are former steelworker Leo (Fichtner) and his wife, Fran (Draper). Meanwhile, Emma Hill (Kim) is an undercover CIA officer. Her father, Joseph Hill (Saito), is the patriarch of a political dynasty and is married to Grace (Shen). Emma’s brother, David (Chiou), is an incumbent Senator running for re-election. Charlie and Emma meet and a night of passion leads to love between two people who are unknowingly on a collision course professionally. While Charlie ramps up the “family business” so he can get out for good, Emma’s closing in on the vengeful criminal who holds Charlie’s family debts in hand — forcing them to reckon with the lies they’ve told so they can save themselves and their families from disastrous consequences.
Airing on Sunday nights, the first season of The Company You Keep averages a 0.25 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.23 million viewers. It was one of ABC’s lowest-rated scripted series in the demo and total viewers compared to other shows on the network.
The show added 70% more viewers in the live+7 day ratings, but that was not good enough to secure a second-season renewal.
The first season of 1o episodes finished airing last Sunday night.
What do you think? Have you enjoyed watching The Company You Keep TV show on ABC? Are you disappointed that this drama won’t see a second season? Did you suspect that it might be cancelled?
I loved this show!! It is the ONLY show on ABC that I watch!!! I guess I won’t be watching ABC anymore! It’d the show had good ratings why cancel it??!!
What?? It’s been cancelled??? Unbelievable. It was a great show, well written, with wonderful actors. It had a bit of everything drama, romance intrigue and comedy. I agree with others, ABC leaves the crap on and cancels the good shows. They need to rethink this bad decision!! BRING IT BACK!
i LOVED THIS SHOW, I COULD NOT WAIT FOR SUNDAY I AM VERY SAD TO SEE THIS SHOW IS CANCELLED. i THOUGHT IT WAS A QUALITY SHOW WITH GREAT PLOTS AND ACTION AND VERY VERY VERY SEXY.
This was such a great show that had a unique story line from many of the other shows. So disappointed that they cancelled this show after only one season. That figures that ABC cancels the good shows and leaves the crap on. How about cancelling trashy hateful shows like the View???
I loved the show. I hate that they are canceling it.
Very disappointed that it’s canceled. They should keep it and put it in a better time slot. 10 pm on Sunday is too late. I watched it the next day on Hulu.
Surprised this was cancelled I’d have thought maybe abc would’ve given it a second season. But it’s numbers are pretty bad.
This is awful news! ABC needs to learn the good shows from the bad ones! Too bad they didn’t check with their viewers first!!! Looks like they wanted to keep it on! It’s a very good show!!!
I can’t believe this show was cancelled let it have a second season the second season might get higher ratings. Very disappointed as for The cancellation of Big Sky and Alaska Daily . #SaveThe Company You Keep, #SaveBig Sky, and #SaveAlaska Daily. This shows are too good to just be cancelled on the spot at least give the one more chance or a final season or something. Give this shows a chance to gain a bigger audience.
This is awful news, our family has really enjoyed this show. Hope they will reconsider.
Very disappointed!! I enjoyed this show very much. I am sorry to see it end. Please reconsider!
I can’t believe this show is cancelled. I stayed up to watch this on Sunday nights. VERY DISAPPONTED!!!! I looked forward to seeing the chemistry with Charlie and Emma every Sunday
VERY disappointed that this show was canceled.
ABC Need to stop cancelled good shows
It was one of the only shows lately that i couldn’t wait to see and even supported by watching a second time on Hulu good shows never make it anymore. Sad
