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?
Loved the show and was so disappointed to find that it had been pulled. Best new series in a long time. I thought it was another one of those stupid reality shows and didn’t intend to watch it. The title sounds like a reality show and I didn’t see any advertising about it. Comcast Cable connected the two shows together on their Xfinity On Demand channel or I would have missed it. I never would have watched it with that reality show title. Hate reality shows. I couldn’t wait for the 3rd episode and was furious when I found out… Read more »
Everytime a quality series comes on, the fricking higher ups cancel it or move it. This show rocked, why can’t they see it.
Bring It BACK!!!!!!
Liked it excellent acting , a&e should find a different time slot
I loved it . I really hope they bring it back
We loved it. Been wondering when it was goiing to be on again
So unfortunate! This show wasn’t even given a chance…..just two episodes? Really….how can a “following” be established after that short of a period. Please….please…please find another night or time-slot for this show…..it has great potential! I will be on the look-out and am hopeful of it’s return.
I would definitely watch.
I am also bummed. I like edgy cop shows and Chloe sure brought that. How can you tell after only 2 episodes. Please find another time slot. You have to count DVR viewings. We
all do that now.
oh come on A&E….this is a great show !!! edgy , suspenseful & dark……this is great drama !!! and I love chloe in the role…….what a deep character………waiting to see more how she developes……….please find another time slot for this show…………..please give it another chance………we need more intense cop dramas like this !!!
Bring it back. Great show, story line. Believable cast.
Very disappointed in what remains/or took its place.
they should bring it back i love it
i was wondering where it was the other night? i really liked the show and was bummed!!! now i’m PO>
Very disappointed!! Was looking threw DVR and noticed it wasn’t there. Went to this site and found out cancelled. Just told a friend to watch because we love Criminal Minds. She loved the show also. Bring it BACK!!
I was wondering what happen! I love the show
They should get the show back on soon because I don’t feel 2 episodes makes or breaks a show you need more time then that. Personally I loved it but that how it goes with the good ones then they will replace this show with another stupid reality show ! Bring it back
