Things aren’t looking good for Time After Time. ABC has announced they’re replacing the low-rated series with episodes of Match Game on Sunday nights.
The drama follows a young H.G. Wells (Freddie Stroma) as he travels to the present in pursuit of of the brilliant and engaging surgeon, Dr. John Stevenson (Josh Bowman) a.k.a. “Jack the Ripper.” The cast also includes Génesis Rodríguez, Nicole Ari Parker, Will Chase, Jordan Sparks, and Jennifer Ferrin.
Time After Time premiered on March 5th to very low ratings. The show’s debut received a 0.65 rating in the 18-49 demo and only 2.54 million viewers. The series’ numbers have only declined from there. Only five episodes in, the drama is averaging a 0.54 rating in the 18-49 demo and 2.20 million viewers, making it one of the network’s lowest-rated series for the 2016-2017 season.
While ABC has not officially announced a cancellation (networks rarely do), it seems certain that it’s cancelled, given the terrible ratings and the show being pulled from the schedule. Match Game will air in place of Time After Time beginning April 2nd. There are currently no plans to air the remaining installments.
What do you think? Have you seen Time After Time? Do you think it should have been cancelled?
One thing about ABC is they never give anything enough time and I probably will stpop watching anything new there again because nothing gets a chance on ABC. This is an outstanding show as well
Time after time it a great show
They could at least air the remaining episodes. I’m angry 🙁
I think the show is fantastic and truly watchable. I am disappointed the remaining episodes will not be aired.
I thought the show had great potential with a lot of different story lines unfolding but apparently the network didn’t think so. I’m so tired of getting interested in a new show just to have it cancelled. Guess we should stick with the veteran shows. This show was on the same time as something else I watched but I always watched it on demand but I probably won’t watch Match Game on demand. So what is the sense in cancelling a good show to put on a game show.
I thought the show was great. well written. great characters. good story concept. I looked forward to watching it every week. it was the only show worth watching on sunday night in my opinion. abc did this same crap with resurrection. which was another great show they made the poor choice of putting on sundays . at the very least, if they are going to cancel it, air the remaining episodes. like the one that was supposed to be on tonight instead of yet another crappy game show.
It was fantastic – I am shocked they didn’t give it more time.
the first show that me and my fiance enjoyed together ): this is heart breaking
The show was one of the BEST! It just needed to be moved to a different day and time slot! Bring it back please.
Shame on you for canceling Time After Time. It’s a fantastic show.
Shame on you. Time After Time is a fantastic show.
Please find a home for this show; again, smartly written, different type of concept; enjoyable to watch vs yet another game show 🙁
I loved the show! Please don’t cancel it!
