As expected, there won’t be a second season for Lifetime’s future drama, The Lottery. The cable channel has cancelled the TV series after one season of 10 episodes.
The Lottery takes place in the year 2025 when our planet is in the midst of a fertility crisis. Women can no longer bear children and the human race faces extinction. After years of research researchers have been able to fertilize 100 eggs and a lottery is held to determine who can carry them to term. The cast of this thriller includes Marley Shelton, Martin Donovan, Yul Vasquez, Athena Karkanis, Michael Graziadei, David Alpay, and Shelley Conn.
The show premiered in July to 1.08 million viewers but lost more than 30% of its viewers in week two and the numbers kept sliding downward as the season progressed. The finale, which aired on September 28th, drew just 425,000. The season averaged 670,000 viewers, a far cry from Devious Maids’ 1.81 million average.
What do you think? Did you like The Lottery TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I am so pissed off!! How could they do this to me!! I loved ‘The Lottery’. I litteraly waited a whole year for this show to come back on just to find out IT IS NOT COMING BACK ON!!! I blame the advertising of the show if more people knew it was coming on they would’ve watched. I didn’t know anything about the show previews or nothing. I just happen to tune in one day and it was on.
Maybe move to SyFy?
i HATE liking a new show just to have it yanked away.
oh no!!! I had no idea there was not going to be a season 2. Great show I was looking forward to it
Loved his sho. And was really hoping for season. 2 but que sera sera
Am in disbelief! Ratings would have gone up, I am sure not enough advertisement for this great show. So sorry it is gone, just like the human race, if we do not take heed! Bring it back please please please!
It should have a season 2 🙁
I am so disappointed I really liked this show and was excited for it to come back on !! Please please have more seasons!!!!
I think it should’ve been reviewed for a second season. I thought it was very interesting. It’s always cool to see different ways the world could turn out.
