A great series about family that ended too soon.

A great series about family that ended too soon.

Why do stories with strong women and family elements get cancels before the story is done?

  1. Probably expensive, and didn't get the ratings it needed to justify the cost.

  2. That's usually the excuse. It was a great show though.

  3. Yeah! They cancelled Agent Carter as well, which was one of the best shows on TV.

  4. Cass Morrison The excuse? You think they literally canceled it because of a strong woman and family elements, in spite of good ratings?

  5. The excuse is using ratings to justify cancellation based on ROI. It was always going to be a niche product (SciFi) and expensive if there are a lot of locations for the story. We were lucky to get a couple seasons.
