More information to fill the lists for cancelled shows of 2012 and renewed shows of 2012. And in this case, after all the drama surrounding the soap operas cancellations from last year, the show that came as a replacement got cut. Well, one of the shows, actually. ABC cancels The Revolution after just one season on the air and after a long struggle in the ratings.
Katie Couric´s talk show will replace the show starting in September, meaning that something had to give on ABC afternoons. And while most bets were on ABC cancelling General Hospital, it is The Revolution the show that gets cancelled, after one season of air, making July 9th the last airing of the makeover show on the alphabet network.
The Revolution was getting half the ratings of General Hospital and The Chew, and that is the main reason behind ABC´s cancellation of The Revolution. Understandable, and that also means that soap opera fans avoid getting another slap, after just one year of the cancellations of One Life To Live and All My Children.
What do you think? Are you sad that The Revolution got cancelled during its first season? Let me know in the comments section.
Also, remember to follow me on Twitter for more scoop about shows getting cancelled as The Revolution did.

It saddens me that ABC is CANCELING “THE REVOLUTION”, New Television shows don’t have time to shine or stand a chance to make it now days! I thought the time period was great following “THE CHEW”. NUMBERS, NUMBERS NUMBERS, that’s all network shows think about now days. I am so tired of General Hospital, it’s been on way too long! All the best characters have turned old & gray! Why don’t you just make a soap network? “THE REVOLUTION”, was refreshing, inspirational, and talked about things we do in everyday life to make it better. I’m sick of all of these Adult soap shows doing the daytime.
I loved THE REVOLUTION & I agree with Cassanadra!!
Well it makes me thrilled, and angry, that ABC is CANCELING “THE REVOLUTION”. Angry because OLTL was canceled for this garbage that was bad before it was even started! I am so grateful General Hospital has been saved and has been on the air for so long, and one more year is not enough! Some of the best characters have gotten older, and better over all these years! They’re like fine wine! Yes, we’d love to have channels playing our favorite soaps, over and over again…. One Life to Live, All My Children, Ryan’s Hope, Loving, The City, As the World Turns, Edge of Night, Dark Shadows even…. there are so many more. Soap fans will watch old episodes wherever they are – youtube, SOAPnet as long that will last. It would be great if some TV channel would play old episodes over again for us, but it is just as important that they survive in new episodes on TV or even somewhere eon the internet if necessary, the drama needs to continue as long as we breathe! “THE REVOLUTION”, was not refreshing, nor inspirational, and wasting the talent of Ty Pennington by taking away his carpentry and design tools and making him tell women what bra to wear was just horrible. And the others putting down our soaps and putting down soap fans… well we showed them, didn’t we! Cancel our soaps, and we won’t watch your stinky programs and your ratings fall and out the door you go! And contrary to whatever report some ABC exec read, we are absolutely sick of all of these talk shows and “reality” shows filling up our daytime hours, and frankly, at night too. Nighttime “soaps” are considered good primetime series… well daytime soaps are just as powerful and their fans are even more powerful!
But will gh stay?Anne Sweeney wants the soaps gone.She needs to go.She has turned millions of veiwers away from ABC and we are not coming back except for gh.Only way abc can save them selves is either put them back on are let someone else televised them for all to see.No more tricks like pp online.
I’m sorry for the hosts of the revolution but the show should never have been put on to replace OLTL. OLTL had twice as many viewers. A better show of course. ABC didn’t think about all the people they put out of work with OLTL & AMC. They gave us a break for now with GH but the chew needs to go to a cooking channel & AMC back on. GMA will not last so just pute OLTL back on. Maybe ABC wants to fail & we are here to help them.
Bye Bye Rev-and we’re just getting started…
Thats what you deserve ABC!! Shouldn’t have canceled One Life!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
I just found ‘The Revolution’ about a month ago and just adored it. I dvr the show and saw the episode today is the finale! More than just a shame—I don’t watch soaps and will be finding something else to do now.
Thank You, now get rid of The Chew!!!! EWWWWWWWWWWW the CHEWWW!!!
I loved the Revolution it was the only show I watched on ABC so now I will not be watching the network at all. It is unfortunate that people would rather watch a fictional soap opera that promotes the lack of morals that we have in society rather than watch something that was motivational and changing womens lives. It just shows how far morals have dropped. Its also unfortunate that the kinds of people that watch soap operas probably would benefit from the things that the show talked about most.
I think everyone is tired of talk shows they want more escape and less reality
bring back the soaps!!!!!
Not happy about the Revolution being cancelled. I found the show to be young in idea, fashion, healthy foods, all positive information and you could tell the crew had fun……Too much “Good Morning/Afternoon America”. Once a day is fine………Americans don’t want to be in the middle of the RATINGS……
I loved The Revolution. It gave women encouragement to lose weight, it lifted your self esteem and had you feeling better about yourself.
Why don’t they cancel some of these Reality Shows. It is too many.
I hope they bring the Revolution back to TV.
Never watched the Revolution…..and glad it was canceled, sorry for the people on the show but ABC should not have canceled OLTL!!!! I only watch ABC for GH during the day and not much at night except for Grey’s and The Practice and Once Upon a Time!! Have many friends tuning into other channels as well! Thank goodness GH is staying and hoping ABC doesn’t up and cancel that!
Revolution is awesome, just ashame they care cancelling it! NOT COOL!
I believe every TV Series should have atleast 4 season minimal. Why even bother puting a TV series on just to cancel it after 12 eposides. How lame are you guy? There is really is no point in saying nice thing ways too many show has been canceled. The best thing to do is everyone avoid ABC, NBC, FOX and get Netflix, Hulu and watch rerun. what a waste of my time and everyone time.
