First Network cancelled show of the 2015-2016 season ABC Cancels Wicked City Just Three Episodes InGoodnight, sweet prince. After only three episodes, ABC has pulled the mini-blinds down on Wicked City. The serial killer drama starred Ed Westwick and Erika Christensen as a murderous couple living in Los Angeles in the early 1980s, and was inspired by real-life serial killer couple Douglas Clark and Carol Bundy, known as the Sunset Strip Killers. According to the Hollywood Reporter, the show opened up to poor reviews and historically low ratings. Wicked City had been planned as the kickoff to a new anthology series, with a new story and characters each season, similar to American Horror Story and American Crime Story. Five episodes that had already been shot will remain unaired. There’s no word yet on whether they will be released at some point in the future on a different viewing platform, such as Netflix or Hulu. Was I the only one that cared about Wicked City? Sure, there are tons of serial killer-themed television shows, but this one had Chuck Bass (Westwick), the stalker from Swimfan (Christensen), Elton from Clueless (Jeremy Sisto), Diana Ross’ son/Ashlee Simpson baby daddy (Evan Ross), plus the lovely Taissa Farmiga, who sadly, has not been on American Horror Story for two seasons | |

Never heard of it...Remember when ABC's NYPD-Blue was famous for showing naked White Butts just about every week...Why don't ABC go back to that? Throw in some naked Black Butt or something... | |

I wouldn't mind if they showed Kerry Washingtons but though I know they will end up showing Anthony Anderson ass | |

I saw the previews of the show and definitely wasn't interested, so I can see why it was cancelled. I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

It ain't The Sopranos. Didn't like Dexter either. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato

I liked the lead actor in Gossip Girl, but I refused to give a weekly show on a serial killer a chance. | |

Yes it is still on. It is silly as hell. I'm watching it only to find out who is the one killer they are not showing and the reson why. I do believe it is just only 13 episode and the show ends. I really do like Scream on MTV way better. [Edited 11/17/15 11:33am] | |

Yeah that is why it's going off the air after 3 episodes. I never saw it as well, just the promos. Lately the first new show of the fall season to be cancelled are shows from ABC (Always Being Cancelled) | |

I'll be very suprised if that awful Neil Patrick Harris show is renewed. How did he and all of those stars get suckered into such a dog? | |

Scream Queens is still better than every season of American Horror Story except for the first two. | |

until i got internet-based SlingTV a month ago to watch AMC's TWD, i hadn't really watched any TV since 2010. SlingTV doesn't give me access to mainstream TV, only cable channels. i thought ABC was a pretty good station but i guess i better go to the liberry to research it some more [Edited 11/18/15 4:28am] | |
