Think I watched 3 episodes . Had there been more? I was highly entertained by this show. How does a studio cancel a show so soon. Makes no sense.

It makes sense when ratings a very low.

Most people I have mentioned this show to never heard of it. That is not the shows fault but the studio for not promoting it properly.

Are you for real? It got 0.4 in demo for the third episode which is historically bad. There were tons of promotion, will you blame networks for every single flopped show now?

I am not one, nor ever been ,one for ratings os reviews. Most critics today are a waste of time.The critics are responsible for destroying some of the most original works of art.

Congrats? If this is a newsflash for you, I'll tell you - every single show gets renewed only due to rating, critics or other factors have absolutely zero influence one a show's fate. Low rated shows get cancelled all the time - this is how tv works.

Actually,to be fair, ABC promoted the heck out of this show. The previews and the show's cool title (which is also the title of at least two movies I know of) intrigued me enough to start watching the show in the first place. I have to admit, after reading the true story about the real-life case the show was based on (which was genuinely very creepy.) I wondered who the heck thought this would be a good idea for a regular series,because the subject matter seemed too disturbing (even though I know you can find way more disturbing things on Criminal Minds, which I quit watching a long time ago. Watched the first two episodes, and was interested by the second one. I figured since I hadn't heard anything about it being renewed that it was probably already canceled.

If you liked the first few episodes you will definitly like the rest.
I though the first two episodes were really bad, but the rest are brillianly written and interesting to watch. I'm glad it got an ending, even though the show it self had such a short lifespan.

That's y i rarely INVEST in shows nowadays because you never know when they are gonna get the can! This show was doomed from the jump, 9pm central showing that's 10pm on the Eastcoast. Ratings has *beep* up alot of shows. I blame the INTERNET, people are lazy!
