A Gifted Man: Cancelled, No Season Two
10 May 2012 7:35 PM, PDT | TVSeriesFinale.com | See recent TVSeriesFinale news »
Patrick Wilson and company won't be back for a second season. CBS has cancelled A Gifted Man, their low-rated Friday night drama.
Revolving around a talented but arrogant doctor who's visited by the ghost of his ex-wife, A Gifted Man ran for 16 episodes on CBS. The show features the talents of Wilson, Jennifer Ehle, Margo Martindale, Liam Aiken, Julie Benz, Pablo Schreiber, Rachelle Lefevre, Afton Williamson, Eriq La Salle, and Mike Doyle.
The TV series got off to an unimpressive start back in September, registering a 1.4 rating in the all-important 18-49 demographic with 9.45 million total viewers. In week two, the demo fell 14%, to a 1.2 rating.
The numbers for later episodes fluctuated up and down -- even occasionally outperforming the series premiere -- but were never very strong. For the show's final few episodes, CBS moved »

Spoilers: When Will the Observers Return to Fringe? Plus: Grimm, Once Upon a Time, New Girl, A Gifted Man
Fringe | When will the Observers return? The last time we saw September in "Back to Where You've Never Been," he wasn't looking too good with a bullet in his chest.

Will A Gifted Man be cancelled or renewed for a second season? As the show winds down for 2011-12, that's the big question for fans of the CBS TV series. In a recent interview, executive producer Neal Baer shared his thoughts but first, let's look at the show's ratings.
For those who came in late, A Gifted Man revolves around a self-absorbed and talented surgeon who starts questioning the purpose of his life when he's visited by the spirit of his deceased ex-wife. The cast includes Patrick Wilson, Jennifer Ehle, Margo Martindale, Liam Aiken, Julie Benz, Pablo Schreiber, Rachelle Lefevre, Afton Williamson, Eriq La Salle, and Mike Doyle.
The series debuted back in September to a disappointing 1.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 9.45 million total viewers. The premiere matched now-cancelled Medium's 2010 opener in the demo but did improve in total viewership. Week »

Watch My Show: A Gifted Man's Neal Baer Answers Our Showrunner Survey
16 February 2012 4:10 AM, PST | TVGuide - Breaking News | See recent TVGuide - Breaking News news »
A Gifted Man, which moves to its new 9 p.m. time slot on Friday, February 17, could use a bit of divine intervention. CBS still sees potential in the medical drama, which stars Patrick Wilson as a doctor haunted by the ghost of his ex-wife, but the show remains firmly on the bubble. Executive producer Neal Baer is no stranger to medical drama, both on screen and in real life. A graduate of Harvard Medical School, Baer used to practice medicine between seasons as a writer on ER. Later, he made the transition to Law & Order: Svu, which he ran for 11 seasons. Now, as the creator of A Gifted Man, Baer has made several tweaks to the show in recent months, putting the focus on the show's medical setting (where Wilson's character is assisted by critics' fave Margo Martindale) and bringing in both Rachelle Lefevre as a love interest and ER »
