There won’t be a third season of magic for the ladies of Witches of East End on Lifetime. The cable channel has cancelled the supernatural drama after two seasons on the air.
Witches of East End revolves around the ladies of the Beauchamp family who’ve discovered that they are witches with ancient magical powers. They must defeat unearthly enemies while keeping their abilities a secret from the other townspeople. The cast includes Julia Ormond, Jenna Dewan Tatum, Rachel Boston, Mädchen Amick, Eric Winter, Daniel DiTomasso, and Christian Cooke.
The first season of the series averaged 1.67 million viewers and a 0.6 rating in the 18-49 demographic — good enough to secure a second season renewal. The second season dropped 32% in viewers to 1.13 million and dropped 24% in the demo, falling to a 0.5 rating.
Unfortunately, the second season ended with several unresolved cliffhangers. Hopefully the producers will share how things would have been resolved at some point.
What do you think? Did you like this Lifetime series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
I am also very disappointed in this show being cancelled. The season ended with the promise of great things in Season 3 and for those of us who loved the show, this is really disappointing. Poor decision for those of us who enjoyed the Witches journey.
I DONT BELIEVE IT IS TRUE …….WHY WOULD THEY CANCELL WITCHES OF EAST END / SUCH A GREAT SHOW!?
They should have a season 3. Too many unresolved issues!! A lot of people enjoyed the show, including me! C’mon Lifetime, i’d be surprised if all your other shows command super ratings!!
I think they should renew for a third season. there are alot of unanswered questions. Who is the sister that wendi ends up with in the end of season 2. whats her part in the series. will they try to bring back wendi like they did ingrid and freya. what about freddie? who kills him in the end and writes in blood on the floor.
I am soo in love with this show that I would truly hate to see it end an I think that the main reason that the show had a bad report was maybe because it was in the summer time that the second season was an that is normally when everyone is out side an playing an if u made the show during the winter an fall times then it would be a lot better but I would really hate for this show to end because I am hooked on it an I cant stop watching please, please don’t stop… Read more »
Lifetime have the AUDACITY to show repeats of the series knowing full well they are going to upset the great fans of the series again and also new viewers as I doubt they have informed people before the episodes start that there will be no more after series 2. OUTRAGEOUS and HOW DARE THEY is all I can say!!!!
I liked the series but lifetime has very poor advertising of its shows. Just as I missed the final show of Army Wives be caused I never knew it was on until I checked the Internet. Everything I watch on lifetime is hit or miss due the poor advertising.
Get going love the show
Wow, I cannot believe there won’t be a season 3 of this show, season 2 left a good cliff hanger to start up a number 3. I do not see why they cancel this type of show, and put on all reality TV shows, It is a good change to actually watch a TV show and not have it be “Reality” like 80% of all shows are. Please get a third season , If you can have “Walking Dead” you should be able to have Witches of East End.
Walking Dead is from AMC… Not Lifetime.
I enjoyed the storyline and acting. How can these shows get you all caught without an ending. Should come back to finalize at least another year. Was a boost to distract from reality shows on Lifetime.
This is why I HATE getting into new TV series until it’s been on for at least three seasons. I started watching this show from the start and I really enjoyed it. I’m not a network executive, so I don’t know all of the factors that go into deciding whether to keep or cancel a TV show, but let me just say that if crap like “Duck Dynasty” and “8,215 Kids and Counting” can survive, there’s no good reason why “Witches of East End” couldn’t have survived. I’m VERY upset about this cancellation.
I loved that show. It was awesome. I wish you had kept it going.
I am extremely disappointed that the show got canceled for season 3. Season 2 left you guessing and us fans need answers. My husband didn’t watch the show and caught the second season finale and started rewatching the show because of the cliff hanger. He was looking forward to seeing season 3 as well. Why would lifetime cancel the show. The ratings didn’t even drop that big. Very disappointed in lifetime network.
I believe this series should be aired for another season. We are all interested in how it plays out. You cancelled the show and left us hanging. It is a good show. I looked forward to watching it every week. I am really dis appointed.
Wow, I am majorly disappointed that they canceled season 3. I was anxiously waiting for its premiere, I love the show and the way it ended in season 2 left all of us hanging. I hate when shows get canceled and they were left wide open. Lifetime has cancelled way to many shows, like the Client List and now Witches of East End.
