ABC is trying a new thriller TV series, The Family, on Sunday nights. The previous timeslot occupant, Blood & Oil, was cancelled after one short season. Will The Family perform any better in the ratings? Cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
The Family TV show revolves around the return of a politician’s young son who’s been presumed dead since he disappeared over 10 years ago. As the mysterious teen is welcomed back into his family, suspicions begin to emerge. Is Adam Warren really who he says he is? The series stars Joan Allen, Alison Pill, Margot Bingham, Zach Gilford, Liam James, Floriana Lima, Madeleine Arthur, Rarmian Newton, Rupert Graves, Floriana Lima, and Andrew McCarthy.

What do you think? Do you like The Family TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for second season?
This is a fantastic show, please don’t cancel it. !!!
OMG! I just heard you may cancel this show. PLEASE DON’T cancel!!! I have to know about the real Adam (I think Ben feels responsible, but didn’t kill him)!!!!
Please don’t cancel The Family, my family and I are so curious to know about the real Adam! And does Ben meet his real mom and how did the reporter died, did Willow do it? So many questions unanswered!!
Please don’t cancel!!! My son and I love watching the twists and turns and trying to figure out what is going to happen,
Please don’t cancel. The best drama on TV !!!!!
I love this show. Sometimes it’s a bit implausible but I love the complicated characters and twists and turns. Joan Allen shines. Renew this show so that I am not left hanging wondering what’s happened to these engaging characters!
Please bring this show back my hole chemistry department at works loves this we talk about it every Monday!!!
I love this show, I can’t believe they are thinking of canceling it. My son and I will be really upset if we don’t get to see what happens next.
PLEASE renew the family for a least one more year to rap it up. I would love a full series, believe me, but at least let the die hard fans like me and almost EVERYONE I know get some asnwers. This was honestly one of the most intriging shows I ever saw. If you can’t please someone else pick it up. I’m sick over this!!
My family and I would group text every week as we watched the show! The best drama we’ve seen in a long time!! Please renew it!
I loved watching this show with my family. Great story! Please renew it!
Please don’t cancel! One of the best shows I’ve seen in a while. Kept me on the edge of my seat. Renew it please!!
My whole family loved this show! We couldn’t wait for it each week. Is there any way to save it?
Please bring the show back! Love all the characters and cannot wait to see what happens next!
My husband & I r addicted to this amazing drama!! We got our daughter in college also hooked on this show!! None of us can wait for each new episode to air. It definitely needs to have at least another season to answer all of the questions remaining. We all need to get more people watching!
