Previously put on life support in a Saturday night timeslot, NBC has decided to pull the new series off the air due to low ratings.
When the series was announced, NBC had promised that they would stick to the show for at least the entire first ordered season (13 episodes) due to the show’s serialized nature, which is why instead of pulling it outright, they moved it to the Saturday timeslot.
But NBC couldn’t justify the cost of keeping it on the schedule, and have decided instead to pull it. The most recent Saturday night airing delivered only 3.71M viewers with a 1.2/4 A18-49 rating.
There is good news though for fans who have continued to watch. According to TV Guide, all 13 episodes will be filmed, and NBC will stream the remaining eight episodes for free on their website at NBC.com beginning this Friday.
