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?
Please renew The Family. Was a very good drama and now we are left with a lot of questions.
Are you joking? This show is a keeper! Please bring it back. It was suspenseful, thrilling, interesting, the characters were perfectly flawed, just like real life. This was so real. Please bring this show back.
I loved The Family it was just thrilling. I just now found out it was cancelled! How can I find out how things played out? I need it back
I loved this show and would really enjoy watching more to find out what happens. I’m also really tired of network tv airing a show which I get hooked on and then it just disappears. Nothing gets a chance to find an audience. Please bring back this show
Please renew. Amazing drama! Not many out there!
Please reconsider cancellation of The Family! Many of my friends and I are terribly upset and disappointed that ABC cancelled yet another great show. There wasn’t another show like it on tv and every week kept me wanting more. Very suspenseful and great characters. Talented cast too! Please reconsider!!!!
What is wrong with ABC? NASHVILLE and The Family? Sad.
This is a shame! What is wrong with abc? Idiots canceled nashville too.
Please don’t cancel The Family! They’re just isn’t enough shows like it anymore for us “old schoolers”. It has a great storyline, awesome actors, and always leaves me wanting more! I agree with other comments I’ve read here….Drop the (fake) so called reality shows!
I’m sure others would agree, we were really left hanging on the edge of our seats. And I’m dying to know what Adam is going to do when he makes it “HOME”! Please bring back!
Please bring back THE FAMILY or let Netflix pick it up. It’s one of the best shows on tv. It has great acting and has so many shocking moments!! PLEASE BRING IT BACK FOR ATLEAST ONE MORE SEASON!!
Please don’t cancel this show. It was great to have a good Sunday night mystery/ thriller. My husband and I look forward to out sleuthing each other.
Yes, I agree! The show should hav a 2nd season!!
Please a second season for the family I am going to guite watching abc u cancel all my show
This show is awesome, it can’t be cancelled. There were way too many unanswered possibilities for the following season. Please bring it back and get rid of some of these dumb “reality shows” that are still on the air.
Please keep this show on! It’s freaking awesome!
Please renew this show. I know of a lot of people who really enjoyed season 1! Don’t cancel!
