As you may have heard, ABC has cancelled Zero Hour after three episodes. The TV show’s ratings were terrible to start and then got worse in weeks two and three.
The cast and crew filmed 13 episodes of Zero Hour and word is that the network may air the rest of them sometime this summer. Because the ratings were so bad, that doesn’t seem likely but we’ll have to wait and see.
In case you’re curious, here’s some information about the episodes that you won’t be seeing, at least for awhile.

Episode Title: (#106) “Weight”(no description available)
What do you think? Do you think that ABC should release the episodes online or wait for summer?
I can’t believe ABC cancelled this show. It was awesome! I loved the historical aspect, international travel (shown in the show), the plot, the suspense. I started rearranging my whole schedule around this show. If you don’t show the remaining episodes that would be an INCREDIBLE loss of $ down the drain that you already spent producing the shows. What a waste that would be! I loved the show. I’d like to see it shown online as well or produced in a DVD set so I can purchase it & watch the show. PLEASE BRING IT BACK ON THE AIR….AT… Read more »
My husband were really into this show and of course it was cancelled it seems all the shows we actually start to enjoy get cancelled. But things like honey boo boo last on tv it’s ridiculous. All because of ratings I understand they are important but the people who did watch clearly enjoyed it please release the episodes online. Abc you left us completely disappointed as we could never know what happens and how things play out which isn’t fair and you leave us with stupid re runs how is that good for ratings!!!!!!
Release all episodes on DVD as soon as possible. Then, those of us who really like the program will have access to them.
Release them on-line!!! Or finish out the already made episodes. We loved this show and are bummed its cancelled. I am so sick of all the lame reality tv out there that apparently people find entertaining. This show actually had a story with historical aspects that kept me wanted more after each episode. Three episodes is not enough time especially when so many new shows came out this season. I had the series DVR’ed and was sad tonight with no episode to watch.
Would love to see the rest of the episodes!!!!
Have watched the first three episodes we watched it over our long time watched show person of interest then we watch elementary
Have you people at ABC lost your flippin’ minds. Zero hour is a fantastic show. Release the episodes online, you should have never cancelled it in the first place. Did you think about the people who actually watched the show? Or are you just about ratings? Put it back on in the ABC line up. Or at the very least release the show online so the fans of Zero Hour can finish watching. You left us hanging out in the wind. What where you thinking?
If you can’t finish the program now,then finish it this summer i can’t stand shark tank!!!!!I finally found something worth watching i guess i will go back to American idol your loss.
i wrote on other page i loved Zero Hour & am disappointed these shows dont make it & horrible series & reality shows make it.
Please air the episodes already filmed at least
The show was amazing, you have to continue it it kept me off my seat. It had a great story line, well at least i thought, i hope they can at least air the rest for fans who like the show.
Please finish the program this summer. I think it will easily beat all the junk you usually air in reruns.
If they were definitely going to put it on in the summer, it might be worth wiating for. If they “may not get around to it”, then definitely put it on line. There are a lot of people who really liked the show, and wanted to follow it.
Please finish the program I really enjoyed watching this new show on thursday and I was upset when I say that it was canceled after only three episodes.
I really enjoyed this show. Especially the plot twists. First I lost Alcatraz now this. Please show the rest of the episodes. After all they are already produced. Thanks
Please finish the program, my kids & I finally had something other than reality shows to look forward to watching on Thursday nights.
Yesssss……we will miss it!! My 11-year-old son is devastated! We watched with him & explained things to help him understand. How bummed is he?! Purely disappointed. I hoped there would be a show different from same ole, same old stuff out there.
Why couldn’t they finish the 10 episodes?? That is my sons question. Wish they would bring it back to finish the season.
Sad…….
What in the world are they afraid of? That people might put 2 and 2 together? Who in their right mind would want to watch the mindless American Idol, Survivor, or any other phony scripted “reality” crap that is becoming more and more ubiquitous. Whenever some show comes along that makes you think, or make connections,or even be THINKING history, it suddenly gets “low ratings”. How do they know who is watching what , esp/ if, like myself you are not hooked up to cable television. . .i for one do NOT believe in ratings. I believe this program got… Read more »
