You know that old line about “Please, don’t shoot the messenger”? Well, The CW has done just that. The network has cancelled The Messengers after one season. Only three episodes have aired thus far.
On The Messengers TV show, a mysterious object plummets to Earth and explodes in a blinding flash. It sends out a shock wave that instantly connects five strangers. They receive extraordinary gifts, from inexplicable strength to the ability to heal others. The cast includes Shantel VanSanten, Jon Fletcher, Sofia Black-D’Elia, J. D. Pardo, Joel Courtney, Anna Diop, and Diogo Morgado.
The move to cancel the series doesn’t come as much of a surprise. The Messengers has performed quite poorly so far, even for a Friday night show. Last week’s installment hit a new low with just 650,000 viewers and a 0.2 rating in the 18-49 demographic.
For now, it looks like the series will stay on the air to finish out its run of 13 total episodes.
What do you think? Do you like The Messengers? Do you think that it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I just heard about this show last week and now I’m hooked! I find it so well-written and acted. I truly hope this will be given a second chance!
Nooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! Come on give the Messengers a chance!! I am a Christian and even though its not quite biblical, I really really love it and I like the line-up of actors! I have really been enjoy the story and what to see more!! Please CW reconsider, the show has only been out for three weeks and so yeah the viewing would kinda be low cuz it hasn’t BEEN OUT THAT LONG!! No one has had a chance to know about it or discover it!! If anyone from the CW is reading this REVIVE THIS SHOW,REVIVE THIS SHOW, GIVE IT A… Read more »
This is a publicity stunt to get more viewers, trouble is most people don’t have the American channels,
so they watch online, so how can you count those views?
I agree with the other comments about keeping the show on the air.
Hopefully it gets more viewers because the show is really good so far
Re-evaluate this decision give it a chance CW …… shame on you guys!
The show is great! I happen to see it on Hulu like most of our shows, unfortunately, we are on able to watch tv like most people. So, we watch Hulu. When we saw the show we found it to be exciting and a different take on the devil and angel concept. No No Don’t Cancel the show. This show could go as far as Vanpire Diaries or Supernatural.
I think it is mess up because I really like this show and CW has some nerve to canceled the show CW has canceled the tomorrow people and the messengers and I think it’s not fair, because Why put the show on the air if it’s going to get canceled after 3 episodes CW you have made alot of people upset because we Really like this show but CW doesn’t care
I think it is mess up because I really like this show and Center has some nerve to canceled the show Center has canceled the tomorrow people and the messengers and I think it’s not fair, because Why put the show on the air if it’s going to get canceled after 3 episodes CW you have made slot of people upset because we Really like this show but CW doesn’t care
I just happened to come across the show and we actually like it… I think it is very unfair to cancel the show so early on and maybe they should promote the show a little more like the CW does with flash, arrow, and supernatural… But I am kinda disappointed that there is not going to be another series
i like the show uou guys are idiots
After the promos, I was really looking forward to watching this show. And I have always enjoyed CW shows. This one was terrible! The premise is interesting. But the acting is torturous, as is the script. I caught myself rolling my eyes several times, especially when one of the actors said something really trite. Good call, CW. Give that space for something good.
Please don’t cancel this show i love it
They should renew the show. It’s really good. I find it intresting and entertaining. Please make a season 2.
GIVE THE SHOW A CHANCE…………..We would like to request the reevaluation/rediscovery of the new CW TV series “The Messengers”. The series just started and is really very good. We just happened to stumble upon it. I am not sure how much marketing was done for the series, maybe more could have been done…but we are pretty glad we discovered it! We are all anxious to see who the seventh ‘gifted’ person is going to be as well as how as a team they handle the devils obstacles in addition to each of their own demons/pasts. The show is still in… Read more »
I second the reevaluation CW… please!
