It’s time for the aliens to go home. ABC has cancelled The Neighbors after two seasons and 44 episodes.
A family sitcom, The Neighbors follows the Weaver clan as they try to live in a beautiful gated community that’s filled with alien visitors from the planet Zabvron. The ensemble castmembers are Jami Gertz, Lenny Venito, Simon Templeman, Toks Olagundoye, Tim Jo, Clara Mamet, Ian Patrick, Isabella Cramp, and Max Charles.
After a first season of mediocre ratings, the series could have been cancelled last May. However, ABC decided to stick with it and scheduled it on Friday nights. Expectations on Fridays are lower but The Neighbors’ ratings ended up being too low for a third season renewal.
Castmate Olagundoye tweeted the news, “Tweeps, I have known since last night, but was not able to share the news until it was announced publicly. #TheNeighbirs has been cancelled”
What do you think? Are you sorry that there won’t be a third season? If you ran the network, would you have cancelled this show?
Please bring back The Neighbors! It was funny, intelligently written and emotionally engaging. The storylines were clever and included a great use of music. I truly believe it was one of the best network shows in a long time. Please bring back Our Neighbors!
My family enjoyed this show & I’m disappointed that it’s cancelled.
This series was so good! Even with the Reggie and Amber thing there was so much growth in characters that were already unique and lovable. I don’t care for very many shows but this was one of my favorites. I also loved how family friendly it was. I could watch this with any of my family members regardless of age and not have to worry about anything apart from a “damn” or “ass”. I liked how Larry Bird referenced that he didn’t expect them to be there long but I wasn’t ready for them to leave so soon.
My husband just asked me to check online to see when the Neighbors would be back on… WE ARE SOOOOoooo Disappointed to hear its been cancelled!… We don’t have very many shows that both of us enjoy together but that was one of them… We don’t care what night it is on because no matter the night we would DVR it and watch it together at a different time if we couldn’t watch it when it was on… Please bring it back!
The cancel The Neighbors, and they keep that piece of s**t Modern Family??????? WRONG, WRONG, WRONG……
I loved The Neighbors!!!!! I’m very saddened that it’s not returning. TV station made a huge mistake! I watch very few tv shows and now you just made my list smaller. Very disappointed!!!!
Nooo! I loved that show! And I really liked it on Friday nights! That’s my family’s “hang out at home” night and it gave us something to watch that we all liked! 🙁
This is so SAD!!! They need to bring it back
I really liked this show , sad to see it go
I loved this show! I’m sorry it was cancelled too.
I was so sad to hear about this. I can’t believe it, I do not want to believe it. Will another network pick it up….PLEASE!!!!!!!
It was such a great show.
I agree with Natalie; this was a great show! It is such a shame that these shows just aren’t given time to pick up more viewers the way they did in the past. I loved this show; it was a great way to end the week and the show always made me laugh! Another great show given the boot and left us with so many unanswered questions. I sure do hope that another network picks up the show along with Trophy Wife…
Please bring it back!! I loved this show….what a mistake.
I am so sad to hear that this show has been cancelled! I loved it!! It was really well written, I guess they did not give it a chance. They needed to find a really good spot for it and it would have caught on.
SO SAD!!!! I had been looking for it and hoping it was coming back.
My whole family loved this show…. Sad to see it go….
I am really sad to hear the show will not be returning. After seeing some of this stuff that is still on just doesn’t make sense. This show was funny and I enjoyed watching it. Its just to bad others did not feel the same way. The show was good and clean, I guess that’s why it didn’t make it.
