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?
It appears that people are looking for something more that can grab you without a week to week plot. It’s nice to view a show each week with a new plot. Those shows seem to be more of a success . Zero hour was a show that missing a week could leave you too far behind.
Such a bummer I can’t believe they cancelled it. I’m getting annoyed that they keep doing this, first it was The River, then they tried to cancel Last Resort (which actually did better than they thought after they decided to cancel it so they continued the series. I’m pretty sure they’re going to have a second season.) I REALLY want to see or at least find out the rest to Zero Hour’s story. This is ******** with these shows that include tons of thinking, twists, turns and incredible plot lines but just getting cancelled mid story, theres too much that… Read more »
I can’t believe it was canceled. ABC is really getting out of control! I am really tired of all these spontaneous cancellations! Give them a chance! We just get interested in these shows and look forward to the next episode and bam ! They are gone! Ie, 666 , last Resort etc…not to mention All my Children and One life to Live !
I can’t believe this! Why do all the great shows get cancelled!! Please show the remaining 10 shows that were filmed. Where do they get their info that ratings were bad, certainly not from people who are fans of the show
For real, I haven’t heard a bad thing from anyone who’s seen the show. Motto mention the last episode that they aired was probably the best so far with the best ending and most revealing of any episode this far. It was also going in a direction that was going to open up a plethora of information and most likely take the show to a whole new level. Upsetting to see how wild the show was getting to find out they canceled it, the story was actually so interesting I doubt they even canceled it because of bad ratings. I… Read more »
When I couldn’t find the new Zero Hour, my family and I thought it was rescheduled for monday. Then my aunt did some research and we figured out that it was cancelled! My family and I were so upset! It was our favorite show!!!
Please put the rest of the episodes online. I really liked the show and would like to see the rest.
SHOW ITTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really loved this season! I think that to many good shows keep on getting cancelled! the rest of the episodes should be online for people to watch if they are not going to be aired!
My wife and I enjoyed “Zero Hour” as well as the other 5.3 million viewers that ABC left hanging. . . . . . Question? Why do the networks air a show that has that many viewers and then cancel it citing “low ratings” and then they leave us with no conclusion? My wife would like to know how many viewers does it take for a program to get a “good” rating to keep it on the air? I have read many of the other comments posted here and I agree with Becky Beesley & Anna MacGregor the most. In… Read more »
Well put. ABC has done this with 4 shows that I myself have been intensely into over the years. They’ve even canceled one of my favorite shows in their 4th season out of 5. That show is also one of the most well known series ever. They do this because of monetary issues. If they don’t make enough they cancel whatever it is, especially of the show is an hour long. I can’t stand the people over at ABC but I love my shows so I’ll keep watching as long as they’re good until they keep one on for it’s… Read more »
Show the rest of the episodes, please! It is not fair to get people interested in a show and then yank it with no resolution to the story. This has happened with several shows I started following and it is aggravating. One show I was watching that was canceled had no resolution and since it wasn’t a book, there could be no resolution. At least Last Resort did have an ending. Ratings may not have met expectations, but you just left 5 million people upset with your network. It seems the good shows get cancelled and,the stupid stuff like Hillbilly… Read more »
I was shocked when I couldn’t find Zero Hour yesterday – had to find out online that ABC canceled it. I love(d) that show and hope they release all the remaining episodes and at least have a conclusion.
The remaining efforts should be shown online starting immediately.
Please show all the episodes. I really looked forward to watching it every week. So sad to see such a good show cancelled with all the reality trash shows polluting the airways.
Please release all episodes. I was really enjoying zero hour.
Show the rest of them and do what you did with “Last Resort” and have an ending.
