Sarah Michelle Gellar's latest project will not return.
May 11, 2012
The CW has cancelled Ringer after one season. The freshman drama was Sarah Michelle Gellar's latest venture back to television, but fell short of the success earned from her last successful series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which ran for seven years.
Things looked good when Ringer first premiered last September. It was the first new series on The CW to receive a full season pick up, giving the series hope for a bright future. Ratings, however, took a turn for the worse - along with many other shows on the network, it should be noted - and fell to the 0.4-0.5 range among adults 18-49 for the second half of the season.
The network obviously couldn't justify renewing the series at its current viewership level, even given the star power of Gellar, who has her own legion of dedicated fans.

The CW will never have good ratings on new shows if you keep canceling them. No one wants to start a show/ or get into a show just to have it get canceled, after one season. It takes time and patience to get faithful viewers. Its very disappointing that you canceled this show. It was really good.

I loved ringer, can't believe they cancelled yet another good show! I agree with Penny it would be nice if they would add a few episodes to finish the story in stead of just leaving us hanging.

Why does every good show get cancelled? I loved this show. They should continue to make the show and sell it to those of us who loved it on DVD! At lest they could wrap up the storyline that way. This sucks CW!!

Yet again no surprise. I knew this show was going to be cancelled before it started too. The idea of the show was horrible.
