The new series has been pulled after just three episodes.
March 2, 2013
ABC has cancelled freshman thriller Zero Hour after a mere three episodes, pulling the series from its schedule effective immediately. The show struggled out of the gate, premiering to a lowly 1.4 adults 18-49 rating, which is the network's lowest-rated in-season scripted debut in its history. Things got worse from there with it dropping to a 1.0 this past Thursday, sealing its fate.
ABC will air repeat episodes of Shark Tank in its 8pm Thursday time slot until Wife Swap takes over the spot on March 21.

It seems to me everyone should be blaming / suing the Neilson ratings people for discriminating against people over 49 for all the good shows being canceled. If you're between 18-49 years old you get your choice of what to watch. Over 49 and your voice just does not count anymore. Loved this show. Hate to see it gone.

I am a New Zealander I cannot believe the shows that get cancelled in the USA, a lot of them are quality entertainment, you must have to many to chose from, very disappointing when a good show gets cancelled.

The plot of Zero Hour is great. The problem was that the hero was unsexy and bald. There was bad advertising of the premeire. Not enough of the plot came across to the veiwers...also, there was no substance to what did come across. I think that if the afore mentioned factors had been different, it would have had better ratings. Last thing, the previews aired at an unpopular time for ABC. I rarely watch the channel because most shiws are uninteresting. I am, however looking forward to the premeires this fall.

I just found this show, watched all the episodes on demand in two days, only to discover it has been cancelled!!!! I was so excited to find a prime time show appropriate, and more importantly, interesting enough, for my whole family (3 kids ages 11, 14, 18). Finally, I thought, a show that is not all about sex!!!! A show with substance!!! Please bring this show back!!!!!

I am so disappointed, yet another show cancelled the only tv shows they keep these days are reality tv. I liked this program and do no harm and you cancel after a couple episodes. Missing with ashley judd is another. Why do you keep doing this? It takes more than 3 episodes for someone to get in to a show. Please give more thought into keeping good programming that actually takes a brain to watch. Wife swap keeps running and other "Programs for Dummies". People need to see good prgramming

Can't believe you cancelled this show. Why does the age group voting end at age 49???? Seniors watched this show too!!! How could you replace it with the garbage? I guess ABC ex's don't know when they have a good thing.
