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.

They really need to get the ratings from dvr'd shows because most ppl work & don't have time to watch tv all day. So we record our shows to watch later.....it's upsetting because when you finally get into a show they turn it off because they claim the ratings are low.....well if they would check I'm sure they would be much higher!

We really got into this show. I never watched other Geller shows, but this was good with a good cast. I wish TNT or some other network would pick it up.

Sad to see Ringer get the Ax, loved that show. Great plot!!! Don't know what to look forward to now...TV has no quality shows anymore.

Obviously they the CW is making a huge mistake by cancelling two of the best shows on their network. Ringer and The Secret Circle were the only 2 shows I would tune in for as well as several of my other friends. It looks like they will be losing many viewers by keeping on the crappy shows.

I am sooooo very disappointed that CW would cancel Ringer and Secret Circle!!! They were my 2 favorite shows on that station and I would look forward to Tuesday and Thursday nights. Hopefully another station will pick them up.

Ringer was awesome! Why Axe it? Take shows that are not worth watching, but not one as suspenseful as this one. Who Rates these ratings anyway? It sure isn't the viewers.
