CBS has cancelled Wisdom of the Crowd after one season, RenewCancelTV can exclusively reveal.
Per insiders, the broadcaster has opted not to renew the low-rated procedural crime drama for Season 2.
Wisdom of the Crowd follows a visionary tech innovator who creates a cutting-edge crowdsourcing app to solve his daughter’s murder, and revolutionize crime solving in the process.
Wisdom of the Crowd will enter the graveyard after its 13-episode first and only season.
RIP.
LeeAnn says
Well, here you go again. Canceling a show that is good. Please rethink your decision on Wisdom of the Crowd. I really like this show. Why not share time with shows if you feel the need to cancel. Show them every other week. That way we could see the show we like, and your new show gets time. Think, people. We’re all going to leave your network if you keep canceling our favorite programs.
E. Brightman says
I totally agree with the comment re. cancelling Wisdom of the
Crowd. It is a very enjoyable show. Please find an actor who
looks like the cancelled lead, let him become the lead and continue with this enjoyable houir.
arline says
this is a good show, and it’s a sign of the times.
perhaps changing the day will get it better ratings, though I like it on sundays.
Give it another chance!
Gloria says
I agree. I love this show because of its uniqueness and who knows maybe that kind of technology will be used in our time.
sue zander says
I love this show, it’s so different and it makes me happy. Don’t give up on it yet.
Donna says
As I was watching this last night, I said to myself I have a feeling that this will be cancelled and here it is. Why not…..all the good shows are cancelled and all the crap keeps on getting renewed and going on and on like the energizer bunny. PBS has become my favorite network and I could care less about many other networks because all they do is cancel shows that I enjoy, like this one.
LindsayDD says
If it was a reality show like The Bachelor or Survivor, it would go forever even though this has higher ratings! These networks love canceling good shows and keep the shi**y ones. But since they haven’t announced it officially that it’s canceled (same as The Brave) I’m hoping it’s not true.
Donna says
I know what you mean. Brave is another great show and so isn’t Valor on CW that I understand will not do another Season.
Richard says
The show’s not perfect, but better than most others. I’m still miffed about NBC cancelling The Brave, which is one of the best on any network.
S.J. says
I absolutely agree. Wisdom of the crowd and the Brave are great shows. I feel like every time I really like a show it gets cancelled.
Karen says
Are the Networks even considering what the People are watching on Fire Stick and DVD? DANG, DIGGITY DANG! I live for Friday Evenings, All Day and Night on Saturdays, and a portion of Sunday Evenings, vegging with my family as we watch all the shows we missed during the Week. If we view the DVD Shows, we don’t ff through the commercials, we use this time to grab more snacks. Get rid of some of the scripted “Reality” trash, and get back to Real Entertainment!! 9JKL, y’all out of y’all minds. That show is so F U N N Y!! STOP THE MADNESS
Marta says
Hopefully they will rethink their decision. Wisdom of the Crowd is such a good show and so on time with the current age of technology. I love what they show in the episodes. Since CBS hasn’t officially confirmed the show cancellation so I hope they will change their mind and create season 2.
S.J. says
Yes, I really hope they change their mind. Also keep the Brave!
Elmer Fudd says
Jeremy Piven blows. Like Jerry O’Connell, he keeps getting TV jobs even though he is an awful actor.
Just Me says
wow, here we go again…. I don’t have cable, however, I have a fire stick and a roku, we have it an all of our tvs.. with that said, I am like another above, I watch the next day on Hulu the shows i can’t see…I am so tired of shows that I love gets cancelled…. … so if this keeps up, i am just going to stick with HGTV, DYI and FYI networks…. sad really… Alot of folks can’t watch on prime time so if they have to resort to Hulu to see what they have missed.
Vic Nardozza says
The Wisdom Of CBS was canceling Wisdom Of The Crowd because of the lack of wisdom of Jeremey Piven.
Also, the show blew.
Eric says
Jeremey Piven sucks. I like APD on Fox. It had the same premise, but that show was also canceled. I couldn’t believe CBS was trying it again. All the networks are cashing in on the reality show.
Jane says
Another good show bites the dust. No surprise. All good ones get cancelled while the reality nonsense stays on. If we dumb down America even more, we’re going to have a society of Idiots running our country.
TazMarie says
I think we already do … LOL
Beevee says
It was different.
Maybe if it wasn’t Jeremy Piven as the lead actor or purported claims regarding his relations with the opposite sex, it may have survived.
Scott Silverman says
Id like to see the “multiple sources” since you marked this and “kevin probably saves the world” as cancelled but no other source I see has marked them as officially cancelled
Gary says
I dont really mind if a show gets cancelled but please give it a proper ending and finish whatever
theme the show runs
W Hoffman says
I too, like this show and will miss it. The topic is timely including the new moral issues tech brings into our lives. But it seems like any shows on Sunday that are not aimed more at women (with a female protagonist) will not have a chance. It’s tough to get many male viewers against sports between noon and midnight on many channels. Why now throw it on another night and Sundays?
Mrs Cynthia Porter says
My husband and I love both this show and The Brave. Please don’t cancel either.
Margaret Anderson says
Both shows were very good. My husband I enjoyed these shows and actually looked forward to watching TV. Can’t you have shows for grown ups?
Janice says
Once again , another good show is cancelled and they leave the crappy ones on. I’m at the point where I’ll cancel my cable company and just watch movies. I get involved with the plot of the show and it’s gone again. Really getting sick of it.
Jamie says
Please reconsider, I love this show! I DVR all of my shows and watch at a time where I won’t be bothered by kids, phone, spouse, you get the idea. Save Wisdom Of the Crowd!
Victoria says
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Not another one!!!!!! This totally sucks!!! I hate it when I get into a show and then you all pull the rug out beneath it. Not fair and so not right!!!!! Please don’t cancel!!!!!!!!
Ana says
I love this show!!!!! I really hope and do agree that with other people above this comment that most of the shi**y shows are popping up more so. And the really great shows are throwed out the door lately too much. This tv show in my opinion shows greatly how technology is bigger in life now a days. I can barely find tv shows that chases my mind that great shows. I am a big fan of this show as well as many others. (American ripper,Looney tunes,etc).
I hope that whoever reads this that is higher into tv wise of their job. Would consider airing this show for more than season 2. I have been through a whole lot in my life so far. And this tv show as well as many others have helped my mind and soul. I love this tv show and even though I was born in ’98. I have seen many great shows that have up and disappeared just because someone in the higher companies of tv wise decided to shut them down. I wish I could see the shows I use too. But it is even harder to see any of the tv shows I grew with.
I don’t have Netflixs. I don’t Hulu.I don’t have any those tv networks that they show daily. I really hope that this will continue on. And I really do wish that a whole lot of the great tv shows in ’98 and up to 2013 do come back.I lived in small town. It’s not easy to have all of these tv networks.
I hope that they do consider bringing back those tv shows that were great, either the ones I grew up with or the ones like a wisdom of the crowd.
Margene says
Again another good show I like is being canceled. I liked both this and the Brave. Both good shows!
Yet shows I don’t give a crap about, I think are stupid or reality shows I can’t stand stay on! GRRR
Come on keep these shows on!!!
Donna says
I am surprised it wasn’t cancelled immediately after hearing on the news last night that Jeremy Piven was listed on the list of sexual predators along with Kevin Spacey, Charlie Rose and now Matt Lauer , etc. Too bad because it is a great show but if it is true that he is one them it should be cancelled right away.
Vicki says
Instead of cancelling the show have Jeffrey Tanner have a nervous breakdown and admitted in the hospital and have Sara and the rest run the show. You could have Sara work with the ex wife!!c This is a great show and we need to keep it going. Look at all the people you are putting out of work. If things clear up with Piven then let him back on the show. And everyone is right, all the good shows go and those reality ones seem to linger on for ever.
Steve says
So just found out that wisdom of the crowd is getting cancelled after one season and I’m totally gutted…I live in e uk and apart from power j find this to be one of the best shows for years.. also it’s obviously going to end with so many unanswered questions as with only two episodes left its going to be impossible to wrap this up with Mus’s killer being caught and brought justice..I dint know what you Americans ‘re watching as the reason for cancelling is due to poor ratings..you tanks must have seriously bad taste.
Steve says
*yanks
Joyce Peacock says
I am sorry they are canceling this show. There is very little to watch on tv. anymore. I thought this was a really good one. Please reconsider.
Marilyn Tepper says
I enjoy watching Wisdom Of The Cloud, and I am sorry to hear that it will be cancelled. I hope that CBS reconsiders this. Maybe the network could bring it back in the future without Jeremy Piven.
Teri Stone says
I have not missed one of these shows and I really liked it. I sure wish they would change their minds. Did they have to just leave us hanging? Ugh!!!
Judith McKenna says
I love Wisdom of the Crowd. It was new and fresh and a great technological premise I would have liked to see explored further. It was cancelled. Last night the show said Series Finale not Season Finale (I recorded it). It made me mad. Don’t like Piven? Replace him. Although whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? I am not saying Piven is innocent but I am 75 years old and seen a lot of things and it seems to me, if a woman is sexually harassed or molested she should report it immediately! If she allowed it because she wanted the part..then that is consent! Plain and simple. Don’t come crying to me or the law 30 years later…that is BS. The show was great and now it is gone! I too am sick of reality junk…now Big Brother Celebrity Edition…not happening for me…that’s not even reality…they are actors, they will act. Need more shows like Wisdom or Person of Interest…another favorite lost…….I have Netflix and am considering Hulu….am an Amazon Prime member so get some free TV there. Next month my contract is up with DirecTV and I will probably dump them….sick of paying all that money. Basically you can only watch one show at a time so I don’t really need them anymore.
JSlade says
Idiots; everytime something worth watching comes you cancel it, heres a thought cancel some of your reality CRAP, not one cares about, just found this show, really didn’t really ever give it a chance at all,
admit it, against sports and Olympics. People are innocent until proven guilty not the other way around..
Cathy K says
This show kept being taken off to show something else; sports etc.. In order for people to see this it has to air on TV, There is very little to watch on tv. anymore. I thought this was a really good one. Please reconsider. I am also upset with you canceling WE THE PEOPLE. That was a really good show.
Margene says
SURPRISE, SURPRISE (NOT) ANOTHER GOOD SHOW I LIKED BEING CANCELLED
