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 look forward to watching this every Friday
I just found out about the show and think it is great. CW needs to advertise it better. It’s about time we have a good show to watch besides reality TV nonsense.
I love this show they shouldn’t cancel it I need a show that is good since vampire diaries ended and the originals second season is over I have to wait for the third and the messengers is a good show to watch even if those shows were still playing.
I really enjoy this show I find it to be very intriguing. The story line is actually something will all can learn more about
Show is really great, should not be canceled. Cw only wants really young viewers!
I just love this show. I’ve just realized that the show was cancelled. Is there a way to make it come back?
There were things on that show I didn’t like and scared me it’s about the raitings if the raitings are bad then mark pedowitz will forced to cancel the series
I Tivoed this show and it looked promising. Then to find out it was cancelled out of the box. They need to remember thst even trains need time to build up speed ( and trains are still around). Bring it back CW. Butween this, Flash, Supernatural and Arrow you hit a home run.
I don’t see why they canceled the show, I was just getting into it and now nothing. That’s why people are not watching TV like they used to,
because as soon as they start liking a show its cancel. Put the damn show back on.
This show is nice compared to the trashy garbage on tv. If this show is cancelled then god help us. Why wouldn’t people want to see angels vanquish Satan?
I was unaware of this show until I saw coming attractions for it’s next show, immediately, I went on-demand and watched all of the episodes. I even set it up to automatically record The Messengers. I can’t express how much I love this show and I don’t understand why you would cancel this show? Hopefully, you will reconsider and renew The Messengers!
I hope they would re-consider to still air. This show-The Messengers and the A.D. The Bible continues are the only good shows around that is about Faith in GOD and some truth similar to shows like Touch by an Angel. All other shows are just so meaningless and just to entertain us no depth to it
I have just started to get into the show and I just found out it was cancelled before it even began. I really think the CW needs to give it a shot before axing it.
Such a shame to see this cancelled, the whole family were starting to enjoy it and always looked forward to the next episode. Too much reality TV rubbish on nowadays (rather watch paint dry!)….who watches that crap anyway?
That show was not given a fair chance to be successful. Friday is a terrible night and it would have done much better after or before supernatural. This network is stupid.
To cancel a show after only 3 or 4 episodes is ludicrous .. no promotion that I’ve seen has gone into this; so they should have given it a chance to catch on. It seems these idiots in TVland are cancelling all the shows I like; no wonder ratings are down; people are afraid to watch a new show & get into it for fear it’ll be cancelled. The TVland idiots are also sabotaging there shows by show 4 or 5 episode and them taking long breaks of 4 – 8 weeks between episodes; this ruins shows, and when this… Read more »
So sad that any show that might be family friendly or even hint at religion gets the axe. This show has some merit – I would love it if the networks would get rid of stupid Survivor. Just shows that the majority of people are mindless twits. You actually have to pay attention to watch this one. I almost don’t want to watch the rest – why get involved with characters if they are not coming back.
