Lifetime has given Lizzie Borden the ax. The cable channel has cancelled The Lizzie Borden Chronicles after one season of eight episodes.
A continuation of the story started in the TV movie Lizzie Borden Took an Ax, The Lizzie Borden Chronicles unveils a fictionalized account of actual events and people surrounding her life after her controversial acquittal of the horrific double murder of her father and stepmother in 1892. The show stars Christina Ricci, Clea DuVall, and Cole Hauser. Other characters are played by Olivia Llewellyn, John Ralston, Dylan Taylor, Bradley Stryker, Jeff Wincott, Jessy Schram, Rhys Coiro, Adrian G. Griffiths, Chris Bauer, and Matthew Le Nevez.
The limited series debuted in April and ran for eight episodes. They averaged a 0.27 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 820,000 viewers. The season (now series) finale aired on May 24th.
What do you think? Do you like this series? Should it have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season?
I really enjoyed the show it was cast perfectly
Oh yes I loved the show
What are we expecting? People have such high expectations and are so entitled. It makes me sick. Take a tv show for what it is! This show was great with Ricci becoming the notorious Lizzie Borden. She’s always been a little dark and mysterious and I thought the show was great for what it was. I was hoping for Season 2!! Guess not because 18 year olds aren’t into it? So dumb. Anyway, my 2 cents. Go ahead and crucify, you little entitled @$$holes! lol! 😀
Great show, great acting, great writing…..was looking forward to it coming back
This was a great show, was waiting for it to continue. Acting was excellent. Very upset that it is not on.
Movie not so great. The series was good, though! Renew the damn thing
Renewed
This was a great show. It should be brought back. Definitely worth watching and waiting for.
Loved this show ,don’t cancel the show, cancel your promotion department , more spending on introducing the show, it’ll explode, some promoted shows aren’t worth a promotion dollar, this show is primetime
I loved it I can’t believed it was cancelled PLEASE BRING IT BACK!
Please bring it back, it was a good story
Bring the show back please I need a season two
I really enjoyed it just found out about it not coming back I’m disappointed
I wished it had of continued. I enjoyed the suspense and looked forward to next week’s episodes.
I wish it were continuing; hate watching a season only to realize that it was cancelled. Hope some network picks it up and continues.
I think it’should a good series and should not have been cancelled! Although it should be kept for adults only no kids or no under aged people. Maybe put as a warning when showed.
