The sci-fi series will still be shopped to other networks.
March 5, 2012
Fox has decided not to proceed with a second season of science fiction series Terra Nova, effectively canceling the struggling show. 20th Century Fox studios, which produces the series, is keeping a small amount of hope alive by attempting to shop it to other networks, but chances of a pick-up appear slim at this point.
Terra Nova's cancellation was somewhat expected, given its mediocre ratings and hefty production costs. Fox has also recently filled up its roster of dramas with new high profile shows Alcatraz and Touch, which they expect will outperform the cancelled dinosaur drama.

I'm quite saddened to hear about Terra Nova. I have never understood why these type of sci-fi shows get cancelled. It seems if you put things in the SKY, they go without a problem - but when you've got a sci-fi show that stays on the ground, it dies out fast. (eg. Caprica) The concept of having to re-settle a civilization also just doesn't seem to hold its viewers. I am recalling "Earth 2" from many years ago. I do hope another network takes it on. As for Alcatraz and Touch: the first is repetitive and boring, the second touches on soppy.

Loved Terra Nova. Can't get into Alcatraz at all. Maybe I should try alcohol before watching it.

Another good show canceled and no good shows to replace it.

For shame! Great family entertainment with a great storyline (we are destroying our planet, you know). It's wonderful to see a family stay together and conquer adversity as a team and part of a community. Bring it back!

I watched the whole season and loved it, who gets these reports? A Nielsen family who is that? There our so many good programs on at the same time that you have to DVR most of them if you want to watch them. No wonder the networks our loosing out!

IT really @#$% me that TV broadcasters can cancel a TOP show just because the ratings were down. They were up against 4 other top shows at the same time so what did they expect. I am really getting sick and tired of cancelled shows after I have invested my valuable time in watching the first season and getting to enjoy it.
Shame on you Fox.
