WHY this show was cancelled bemuses me, it had so much promise, so much potential.
The cast was great, as were the story lines and it could have become so, so much better, and the lines it could have followed from the young Abe, and then the young Henry, Henry first marriage and then onto the romantic side, it had so many avenues it could and should have followed.
All I can say is the Chief's at the top should sometimes listen to the Indians below, this could have become one of the best TV show's ever had ABC it been given a chance to mature. What a bunch of pillocks!!!
So sad that one of the other networks did not pick it up, with the fan based already established (on both sides of the pond) it would have been a sure fire WINNER.

I was going through my DVR Timers the other day to remove canceled shows, and when I got to this one my anger re-emerged. I absolutely loved this show, and looked forward to it weekly.
I realize that they renew or cancel according to the weekly ratings, however at times I am very confused just how certain shows (Kardashians, for example) continue to get renewed, and shows like Forever get canceled. I mean, doesn't this say a lot about the average mentality of the American viewing audience overall?
I guess it's too late now, but I wish that some other network picked it up.

We stumbled upon this show out of desperation during the holiday break. It is FANTASTIC. We truly love this show and find it to be very intelligent, entertaining and interesting. When it first premiered, we had no desire to watch it based on the promos, so I believe that if this show fails it is due to a poor promotion and marketing campaign. The promos emphasize a 200-year-old man trying to find a cure for his immortality...seems wacky. Who would want to watch that? This show is so much more. What a shame that it most likely will be cancelled without most people even having a chance to discover it. Hopefully the network will see the potential and rethink their marketing. It's truly great.
I hope ABC will give it another shot.

This show had what many shows these days lack. And that is a genuine bona fide proper show. These days most T.V. is filled with either not so reality, reality TV or with stuff that is so awful that finding out it has fans is saddening. Rarely, do I like a show that is or has been on T.V. - In fact, I watch about 5 shows that are on T.V. and Forever was one of those shows. I thought it was a breath of fresh air and so did my brother. It had a good, not so in your face humour side with a couple of characters and it also had some decent drama and mystery and a really good plot. I mean, How many shows are there that are about an immortal man who is trying to figure out why he's stuck in the land of the living.
It was a beautiful show. I'm sorry to see that it got canceled. It seems these days anything that's original gets tossed aside while everything else that's just a clone of another gets high praise and prime T.V. spots.

Honestly after reading the description of the show I wasn't too excited about watching the 1st episode. But it had me hook, line, and sinker after the first 5 minutes.
Ioan Gruffudd gives a great performance as Henry Morgan, and Alana De La Garza as Det Jo Martinez is fantastic as always.
Its refreshing to see time was spent on character development, writing, and directing. Too many shows are casting "A" list actors and then putting out a poor planned product. Hats off to the entire cast and crew.
Looking forward to upcoming season.
