What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the CBS television network, Zoo stars James Wolk as zoologist Jackson Oz. The cast also includes Kristen Connolly, Nonso Anozie, Billy Burke, Alyssa Diaz, Josh Salatin, and Gracie Dzienny. After noticing animals behaving strangely during the African safaris he conducts, Oz and his team work to figure out the reason behind it. Meanwhile, the animals assaults become more cunning, coordinated, and ferocious.
Season three of Zoo opens in the year 2027. Thanks to the sterility issue, the human population is still diminishing. Meanwhile, hybrids pose a new threat. This relentless force of lab-created creatures is determined to wipe humans off the face of the earth. Although the team members have grown alienated from each other over the last ten years, Jackson, Jamie (Connolly), Abraham (Anozie), Dariela (Diaz), and Logan (Salatin) have to get past their differences and reunite when they learn that Mitch (Burke) is alive. They must stop the hybrids and their enigmatic creator – someone with a connection to their past.
Season Three Ratings
The third season of Zoo averaged a 0.51 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.65 million viewers. Compared to season two, that’s down by 31% and down by 40%, respectively. Find out how Zoo stacks up against the other CBS TV shows.
On October 23, 2017, Zoo was cancelled so there won’t be a fourth season. Could it be revived somehow? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Although it premiered with even worse numbers than last season, it is difficult to figure out whether CBS will cancel or renew Zoo for season four. Frankly, after a 30% drop in both its demo numbers and audience size, I didn’t expect it to score this third season. I’m also a little put out. Crazy hybrids aren’t the only critters who need to feed. I’m happy for the fans of course, but still, I am starving. Personally, I think that the numbers are too low this time around. We’ll see. I’ll keep a hungry eye on the ratings and update this page as needed. Subscribe for free updates on any Zoo cancellation and renewal news.

If shows are going to have seasons then we should, at least, have endings! No ending is sort of like ‘Human Cruelty’!! It’s like reading a good book just to find out that the last chapter has been torn out!!!
Please bring BACK Zoo!!!!! I’m in love it!!!!!!!
Please for the love of god bring back zoo!! At least just one more season pleeeease!! My husband and I need closure!!
I just watched all 3 seasons on Netflix, very disappointed that there will be no season 4, had I known that I would of never even watched it at all 🙁
Just watched the end of season 3 on Netflix it was gripping best thing I have watched in ages and so disappointed that there is no season 4 come on Netflix pick it up it can’t end with the evil Abagail winning and the team who have sacrificed everything losing
They shouldn’t be able to end it that way! I love this show and I really want to know what happens bring back Zoo for season 4 please I will die not knowing what happens next!!!
I am floating in disappointment over how we have been left hanging at end of “Zoo” I benged watched this show . Three seasons in two days . I didn’t want to shut it off to go to bed. Next day got my breakfast and right back to Netflix. Only to be left hanging in dead air, over the ending of third season,and finding out show was canceled. No I cried I need more. You can’t leave us in the lurch this way. Was earth saved did get baby back unharmed in any way. Did people get the cure? Did… Read more »
To be hones I’m not surprised at all it got cancelled. Seasons 1 and 2 were fine and interesting, season 3 however, WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP!!! While the story was interesting I can’t get over one simple fact. Abygail always won, from the first to the very last episode, she always had the advantage, everything practically went always according to her plan and why? Because she was the antagonist of the show and they needed her for the plot, that was the problem season 3 a pile of garbage, it all was lazy writting, Abygail only won for the… Read more »
Hey Alex, season 3 isn’t crap at all, except you don’t understand what 10 years of articulated planning can result to, she had gone so ahead of them that it will take more than few episodes to defeat her, things doesn’t work that way..One thing i love about the movie is how much regard was given to mother nature and the demonstration of how efficient and almost indestructible a PLAN can be when set up right! Am so hopeful for a season 4 , the victory right now is Abygail’s and that’s not good cos the movie is almost getting… Read more »
I am VERY disappointed that the show called ” Zoo”, was cancelled without allowing the writers to conclude the series properly. That’s really messed up. SMH…
I totally agree with you I just spent the last 3 days binge watching from season 1 thru season 3 to only learn it has been cancelled
Once upon a time, we could look at a 2 hour movie from beginning to end; but, yes, there was an end, even if we didn’t like it. Once upon a time, TV shows had individual episodes, and occasionally the episodes would drag out to two or three parts, but, there was an ending, like it or not. So what’s up with this new trend, of never ending episodes!?!? If you are going to drag the show on and on and on, through several seasons, and many episodes, THE LEAST you should do, is create an end to the show,… Read more »
