A&E has dropped Chloe Sevigny’s drama Those Who Kill from their schedule after two episodes.
Those Who Kill revolves around homicide detective Catherine Jensen (Sevigny) and academic forensic psychologist Thomas Schaeffer (James D’Arcy) who work to solve crimes in Pittsburgh. Others in the cast include James Morrison, Omid Abtahi, Kerry O’Malley, Bruce Davison, Kathy Baker, Michael Rispoli, and Anne Dudek.
The new detective series debuted to 1.4 million viewers. That was less than half of its lead-in, Bates Motel, whose second season premiere drew 3.07 million. Then, in week two, just 830,000 tuned in to watch Kill.
Now that Those Who Kill has been pulled, the cable channel will shift Bates Motel to the 10pm timeslot. A rerun will air at 9pm.
Though the ratings for Kill have been very poor, A&E hasn’t cancelled it. Though things certainly don’t look good, they reportedly believe in the show and want to find another timeslot where it can build an audience. That day/time will be determined later. There are eight unaired episodes remaining.
What do you think? Do you like Those Who Kill? Will you watch when it returns or, do you think it should be cancelled?
I love this show.. have seen 7 episodes and it just gets better and better… Don’t say it’s so to be cancelled….. AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I hope it does not get cancelled. I found the show by accident and just love it!! It’s a great tv show!
I love the show. Those Who Kill will do well so get it back on. It’s the Bates Motel that should be cancelled.
I would really hope they would bring it back and this time let people know it is out there. The acting and the story line is very good. The problem may be the title !! not the show.
Love the show bring it back.
Love the show please bring it back to at least conclude a season.
This show was crazy awesome!!! Can’t believe they pulled it!!!!
Loved the show missed the last episode looked on ON Demand on cable and couldn’t find it wondered what happened.
This show captivated me right from the start. Maybe you would have had a better viewing if there had been some build up or advertising. I came across the first episode by accident, and happy I did. What a let down to know it was pulled after only two episodes.
loved this show! I keep looking for it .
