With October Road and Men in Trees now cancelled, ABC seems to be on a killing spree — not unlike the “Kiss-Me-Not” killer on Women’s Murder Club. With that in mind, it makes sense that Murder Club would be the network’s next casualty.
ABC’s Women’s Murder Club, based on the popular James Patterson books, debuted on October 12, 2007. Viewer and critical reception was mixed. Almost 11 million viewers tuned in for the series premiere but as few as eight million returned for later episodes. More importantly, the TV show’s percentage of the 18-49 demographic dropped as well. The show typically skews older which is essentially a sin in TV ratings.
After the writers strike finished, it looked like Murder Club was done but ABC decided to give it another chance. They fired the show’s executive producers, hired new ones and order three additional episodes to complete the season. The series then returned to primetime after a three month absence. Unfortunately, the numbers didn’t get any better.
The crime drama has now been officially cancelled but, fortunately for fans, they’ll get to see all of the produced episodes. Episode 13, titled “Never Tell”, is scheduled to air tomorrow night. Will the “Kiss-Me-Not” killer be brought to justice by the time the series ends? Stay tuned!
Instead of going to Fox or ABC or even NBC, look what Michael Conley did with the hairy boss series and now The Lincoln lawyer series. Streaming networks are good.
You need to help us the women’s murder club should be brought back on a streaming Network. I am a really big fan of it.
I am just now seeing this show in 2022 and to my horror there was only one season man was I upset…..this was a great show wish there were more
Rosilly n isles n women’s murder club are 2 awsome shows that should’ve been left on the air, would love to see another season of either shows.
I miss the series! Loved the book and enjoyed the series!
This Show in my opinion was even better than Rizzoli & Isles. I wish they would continue women’s Murder Club. Really great show!!!
