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?
I do not understand I really loved Time after Time !!!! I won’t be watching a game show
Replaced by a game show?! I was really loving Time After Time 🙁
I liked the show sorry it was canceled
i loved time after time. it was great and you left us with a cliff hanger. Put it back on for people who cant stand tv game shows
Time After Time is a great show. Give the show a good time slot so that it’s got a real chance. Putting the show in a slot that doesn’t have to fight a show that have a big fan base. Personally I would rather watch anything than a reality show.
Shame! Shame! Shame! Not enough good shows on TV. Replaced by a dumb game show with Alec Baldwin no less. What is ABC thinking.
Match Game or Time After Time? I would take Time After Time. Wish the powers that be, would have allowed the show to remain on the air until the last episode.
It truly is a shame if Time After Time was canceled. Even more a shame to be replaced with a celebrity game show. I seldom watch ABC, they don’t seem to have a winning formula. This Time After Time show captured me as a viewer, but now I will move on to other net work programming.
I am so disappointed to hear that Time After Time has been cancelled (or will be)!!! It was a fantastic show with so much promise. I hope and pray that ABC will give it a second chance on another day and time. I think it would do well with more episodes under its belt.
I hate that Time after Time’s beeh cancelled, I loved the first 5 episodes. Is 5 weeks long enough to judge a TV series? I personally don’t think so, but I watch them, I don’t get to make the decisions. Bring it back, give it a chance!!!!!!
Good show, was just started getting exciting,too bad it was cancelled maybe one of the cable channels could pickup the show.Match game sucks especially Mr Nasty Hollywood Alec Baldwin!!! Rather and do. Watch Old Match Game with Gene Rayburn, better quality of show.
I really liked the show so dissapointed with you cancelling.I wont be watching the match game i dont like it.You really didnt give the show a chance
I really liked the show.You should have at least finished the series.I hate the match show i wont be watching that
Really liked this show and we were looking for the next airing. Even telling friends to watch it. It needs more time
Like this show would like to see to the end
