The medical drama's run ends after 13 episodes.
May 13, 2011
ABC has canceled Off the Map as part of a flurry of moves that saw seven of its shows meet their end. Also canceled are Brothers & Sisters, V, No Ordinary Family, Mr. Sunshine, Better With You, and Detroit 1-8-7.
Dubbed as Grey's Anatomy in the jungle, Off the Map premiered in January of this year and aired 13 episodes. The show's series finale was on April 6.
ABC likely had much higher hopes for the show, positioning it to piggyback off the success of Grey's the same way Private Practice did. Ultimately the show did not pull in very impressive numbers, falling from a 2.0 average (adults 18-49) over its first five episodes, to as low as 1.3 three times over its final four episodes.

This was 1 show that amazed me everyX I watched it. Unlike all these other dumb doctor shows it actually kept our eyes on the TV. Like the above comments^^^^ Keep giving us more reality tv shows which is junk coz we all live our own reality tv shows at home. REALLY?! IF this is what television has come 2 then Y in the world are so many 3D TV's being sold? Not 2 C shows like JerseyWhore as I like 2 call it. If u wanna C DRAMA go 2 the bars around ur areas. Plenty there. That or ABC CBS WGN ~ Y don't u come n film each n every1 of our families 2 so we can make some mula in this helllllo of an economy. SCREW REALITY TV. BRING OFF THE MAP BACK ALONG WITH LOVE BITES N EASTWICK N MADLOVE N BETTER WITH YOU!!!!! PLEASE N THANK U!

I can't believe Off The Map is cancelled. I don't watch a lot of TV but never missed an episode. I absolutely think the TV is getting carried away with the reality shows. The actors/actresses and stories were great. I will miss Brothers and Sisters as well. I can't believe these two shows are cancelled, yet Desperate Housewives is still on!!

I am so upset to see this show cancelled. Here was a show with a great cast, interesting episodes, developing relationships...and now it's gone! Really, it's hard to understand the mentality behind t.v. programming these days. Reality shows...I'm sick of them!
Here's hoping someone rethinks their actions and somehow this show returns!

I loved Off The Map and am very upset it has been cancelled. We are over the Housewives insanity!! I can't believe this great cast and writers are not coming bsck. Get rid of the housewives and keep the good shows that keep you excited about what will happen next.

I can't believe Off The Map is gone. I thought it was a great program, kinda ER meets Iniana Jones. I do not however blame the cast or the writers. I fault the station/promoters. If this show was advertised better it would have had higher ratings. It had good content and a great time slot. Now I'm stuck trying to avoid Real Housewives of everywhere.
