Such a shame. I was really enjoying this show. I watched it on Netflix last week and figured I'd be able to see the second season straight after. When I went looking for it, there was nothing in sight. Instead, I found an article about its cancellation. :'(

I wish they'd bring it back. I wonder if there's any way they might still do that. I mean, look at Family Guy. That came back after a few years of being off the air. Ringer hasn't even been a year gone, huh?

So would you guys say its worth watching?

You should definitely check it out. It has kind of a soap opera meets spy flick feel to it. If you're into that, definitely give it a whirl. It had me from the first episode. The acting is really good, too.

i wish it had more of an ending for a series finale.i have no idea how the show could end if i use m imagination to deal with it.i did cheer when Henry took away siobhan's money.that made me feel like henry's not as bad as siobhan despite having loved her for a certain amount of time.i wonder if siobhan would end up in jail or really dead if the show went on and if andrew would really end up feeling love for bridget despite pretending she was her sister.

Largely. The central story is that Bridget poses as her sister Siobhan bbecause someone is trying to kill her and discovers that someone is trying to kill Siobhan as well. That spins into several related plotlines involving double crosses and triple crosses and scams of various sort that I won't go into so as not to spoil it. By the season finale we know who all the major perpetrators and masterminds are, what their motives are, and the storylines have mostly been brought to a conclusion. There's still some dangling plotlines. We don't get a confrontation between Bridget and Siobhan (I'm not spoiling anything since he later is revealed to still be alive at the end of the first episode). But I found it a very satisfying conclusion. You can see how they left some stuff unanswered for another season but it's not like the show ends on a cliffhanger and doesn't give you resolution.

I think this show works well if you can watch it as a marathon. I know its on Netflix so that's a great way to watch it.

Okay, now back to the main questions. It does not get a proper ending at all. It's a season finally ending, which means it leaves a lot of loose ends.

I'm thinking that they thought the CW was really going to renew the series for a second season. Once you watch the final episode, you'll see that it could of had easily been a happy ending if they would of just changed a few scenes. But like I said, I don't think they thought they were going to get renewed so they would work on tying the loose ends on the second season.

However, at the end I felt like the whole show was a complete waste of time. The story doesn't really help anyone get better.
