12 TV Shows That Just Got Cancelled

10. The Family

The Muppets Agent Carter Grinder Cancelled
ABC

Another show gone after just one season, ABC's The Family was a mystery thriller starring Oscar-nominee Joan Allen and The Newsroom's Alison Pill.

The story centres on Claire Warren, the mayor of Red Pines, who announces her candidacy for governor, just at the same time her son mysteriously reappears 10 years after being kidnapped.

The show received fairly solid reviews, without quite managing to be a hit, and it means that the mysteries of The Family will probably remain unsolved.
