As expected, The CW have cancelled "Ringer" and "The Secret Circle" after poor first season ratings. "Ringer" which was seen as Sarah Michelle Gellar's big TV comeback after laying mostly low since those few horror movie hits she starred in after "Buffy The Vampire Slayer" ended, has struggled for ratings all season and audience numbers have fallen recently to as low as 1.05m. The show starred Gellar in a duel role as two identical twin sisters in the murderous crime show from Supernatural writer-producers Eric Charmelo and Nicole Snyder that was described as an edgy thriller about redemption and revenge Pam Veasey, the Executive Producer of the show said the show may not have had enough mainstream appeal;
"It was not... I guess you could use the word 'accessible'. " we'd make it more accessible for people who just drop in, probably do less in an episode. And what I mean by that is make it less complex in the plotting."
"The Secret Circle" also struggled to hold an audience and we know now the season finale that aired on May 10th will be the final ever episode of the show. Elsewhere "Gossip Girl", "Hart of Dixie" have been renewed for another season and surprisingly "Nikita", which always struggles in the ratings but has done enough to gain another season.
