Today brought good news for Switched at Birth fans as the series was renewed for a fourth season. Unfortunately, the news wasn’t good for fans of the Twisted TV show. It’s been cancelled and won’t be back for a second season.
A mystery/thriller series, Twisted revolves around 17 year old Danny Desai (Avan Jogia). Six years ago, he was charged with killing his aunt and he ended up spending five years in juvenile detention. Now, he’s been released and has returned to his small hometown in New York. As he tries to resume his life, a classmate is killed and Danny becomes a key suspect. The cast also includes Madelaine Hasson, Kylie Bunbury, Ashton Moio, Kimberly Quinn, Denise Richards, and Sam Robards.
The pilot episode of Twisted aired as a special preview in March 2013 and drew 1.19 million viewers. It wasn’t a great start but the ratings picked up when the regular season started in June. They quickly started falling again.
The cable channel split the season into two parts and, starting in February of this year, gave it the advantage of airing after Pretty Little Liars, their most popular show. Unfortunately, that didn’t seem to help and the ratings got worse and worse. The final two episodes of the season drew just 726,000 and 773,000 viewers.
TVLine now reports that ABC Family has pulled the plug on the Twisted series, leaving viewers with a lot of unanswered questions.
What do you think? Do you think that Twisted should have been renewed for a second season? Are there any ABC Family shows you would have cancelled instead?
Can’t believe that they cancelled Twisted. It was one of my favorite shows. I will no longer watch that channel. There are no other shows worth watching. Hate that we got left with a lot of unanswered questions!!!!
this really sucks, I just binged watched Twisted on netflix, too only find out there is no season 2, after being left on that amazing cliff hanger. ABC, needs to bring the show back, at least to explain what happened next. Because this is just wrong on so many levels. Someone needs to complain to ABC about this, maybe make a petition to get it to come back. I don’t know, I just need to know what happened.
They cancelled twisted after a season with a promising future. PLL is the dumbest show ever. It drags on about nothing. If that show could survive then this would definitely be able to hold it’s own
They should not have cancelled Twisted or Ravenswood and bring on asinine shows like Mystery Girls and Young and Hungry. ABC Family keeps the stupid shows and cancels the shows that have an ounce of intelligence. I will no longer watch ABC Family. It’s not worth my time.
ABC Family shouldn’t have ended it on a cliff hanger is they weren’t planning on bringing it back! They should stop bringing new shows and end the original ones properly!! Twisted should be renewed before Twisted I didn’t watch any show on ABC Family except Pretty Little Liars
CAN’T BELIEVE IT…I HAVE BEEN WAITING AND WAITING TRYING TO FIND OUT WHEN SEASON 2 STARTS. SOMEBODY MADE A HUGE MISTAKE. THIS SHOW WAS GREAT. DON’T GET IT!!!
This is just absolutely ridiculous. This show is friggen good. U didnt need to cancel twisted just so the other shows could stay on. It was on at a different time then the other shows. Honestly I’m beginning to wonder what the heck is wrong with abc ffamily. They have canceled such great shows that I’m just do sick of abc family .Like the nine lives of Chloe king. That show was different and so good and they left us with major cliff hangers. And Jane by design was also awesome. And ravenswood. All such good shows that jus kept… Read more »
i am so tired of not getting to see twisted again , i mean abc family network brings the stupidest shows like switched at birth and the fosters , twisted is a great show and i know there is alot of viewers agree . and i watch abc all the time but i think twisted needs to be put back on…….
Zarrie’
ABC Family Will never cancel Switched At Birth and The Fosters both of these shows deserved too be renewed for more seasons I love these shows let me remind you that abc family wants viewers too watch these shows if people aren’t willing to watch them then Tom will have to have no choice to get all pink slip to every single show on the abc family and cancel all of the shows then abc family network will be shutdown completely do you all want to see that
it’s just like Ravenswood I hope that Ravenswood would return back on the abc family
They should’ve definitely renewed Twisted for a season 2. It was good and was left hanging. ABC also did the same thing to Ravenswood. They should at least give closure not only for the audience but for the characters and story as well. Everything is about ratings. Most shows don’t get popular in the beginning, it builds as long as the show is good which Twisted was!
they should have twisted do a 2nd episode cause the show was the best and really what a way to excite your audience with them not knowing what is going to happen next through out the show switch at birth should have been canceled
Twisted desevered to be canceled I help the abc family by the cancellation bear to twisted and I so so so so happy its finally canceled so now PLL Switched At Birth The Fosters can be renewed for more seasons
I am so done with ABCfamily now. Twisted was literally all I cared to watch. Now I’m done. I hope the entire channel goes down. Switched at birth sucks, The Fosters sucks, I am done.
I am so tired of abc family cancelling the shows i like first they cancel Jane By Design when it ended with a MAJOR cliffhanger and they did the same thing with Twisted and i hate it!!!
Yes they should have renew it and cancelled the foster
I agree
If you don’t like watching the abc family network and their shows then don’t watch them at all the fosters PLL and swiched at birth is one of my fav show and I am not gonna let you cancel them they’re really good show I am really tired of this
