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.

i'm curios what the ratings were for this show. disappointing. thanks again ABC
almost getting to the point of not watching these network tv shows anymore. i have ventured of to cable network shows like tnt, fx, amc and others. if i feel this way, i'm sure others do too. this will hurt the networks in the long run.

That's it! You will not fill my mind with more mindless dribble. I like a show that has a plot and not some scripted nonesence. Zero Hour had made it into my must watch list on Thursday nights. CBS is my network of choice, but the premise of this series had lured me in from the beginning and had delivered with the three episodes that I had seen. Shame on you for disappointing the thinking man once again.

Wow. Scheduler was an epic fail for this show. Why put it up against Big Bang and Idol right off the bat. The problem is too many people do not have a creative brain or want to give a show time to develop. They want instant horsecrap from some reality TV show, that is staged in some form or gashion anyway, over a show that is creative and has a unique storyline. Shows like this, Last Resort, Alcatraz, Touch (soon to be canked) just dont get enough time to develop. Not everyone is going to pay or wants to watch the shows on the big cable networks. ABC sucks, I dont think there is a show now on that network I watch.

Not surprised at all. This show sounded intriguing in the ads, but it turned out to be poorly written and poorly acted. I barely made it through the first episode. Anyone who thinks this and Do No Harm are great shows should really start expanding your horizons to networks like HBO, Showtime, AMC, and FX. The quality of the shows on those networks makes much of the content on the broadcast networks almost unwatchable.

Here goes another good show. My philosophy now is to DVR the new shows for the first 5 episodes, then if hey get cancelled I'm not so invested. I really don't understand why they just can't give shows a chance to develop, and who the hell does the scheduling? Get rid of them! I think I may just stick to HBO, AMC, etc. Screw the networks, sick of the reality crap and the super stupid sitcoms.

Good shows like this get cancelled, but yet we have had over 20 seasons of survivor and reality tv shows like the bachelor, bachelorette, real housewives of_____ (fill in blank) keep getting renewed??? This is ridiculous. This show definitely had potential. Maybe we should all mail clocks to ABC as a plea.

I guess I'm lucky that I'm in Canada. Global is airing episode 4 of Zero Hour this week. Hope they run the whole season.

Really torques me off. I would even pay for the DVD of the rest of the series if they would go through the process of filming the rest. They have the story and probably most of the script, cast and producers already engaged. Why not finish the first season at least and then if you want to axe it, go ahead. You can't even do a rap up episode with this type of series. Another interesting show bites the dust. Again, Thanks ABC for letting your bean counters determine good programming.
