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?
Loved that show and will miss it. Hope ABC decides to sell it’s rights and someone else picks it up?
I am so sad. It is a great family show (which we need!!!) Stupid, stupid, stupid decision to cancel it!!!!!!!
I loved,loved that show!!!!!!!!!!!ABC u kept that stupid show last man standing? Then cancelled a heart warming and very funny show The Neighbor’s. Please bring back The Neighbors!!!!!!!!!
I am SO sad to see it cancelled. It made me laugh every time I watched it. I will definitely miss it.
Loved the show! So disappointed!
I’m so disappointed that The Neighbors is not coming back. I loved all the characters and was looking forward to seeing where they would be going next season. I will really miss this show and all the characters and the actors. Just sad.
Noooo! Say it ain’t so!!
I cannot believe that this show has been cancelled. It was so humorous and so very, very clever! I could not watch it on TV because of the day/time it was shown and always looked forward to watching it on my computer.
ABC…you really missed the mark on this one! You had a diamond and just needed to find the right setting!
Another typical example of tv execs no appreciating a good series when it cones around.
Bear in mind monty Python wasn’t a ratings hit the first time around.
Narrow minded and cannot realise that every channel needs to take a hit to engage the audience now and again.
So not happy with ABC, I live this show. Its good,quality, family humor! Its so gud! I dnt watch series alot bt I fell in love with this on the spot. Pls ABC, if u hv any love for ur viewers, bring this show back
I LOVED this show and would watch it again on Hulu. ABC please consider bringing it back!
Nooooo
It has humour at every level
I am absoulutly furious with abc. This was my favorite shown. I will come down to their office and give them na stern talking to.
It was obvious when you moved it to Friday night that you had no hope for its success. This show was so enjoyable to our family and good for family viewing. Wish you had considered running it on one of your subsidiary cable networks
Go big or go home!
Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE BRING BACK “THE NEIGHBORS”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY GRANDKIDS AND I ARE SO UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU THINKING ABC???????????????????????
I loved every episode of it! Stupid decision to cancel it, they definitely didn’t gave it enough time to get successful. After I told a few of my friends about it, they also loved the show… So stupid stupid decision..
