Call to Action: Vote to Save The OA, Krypton, Shadowhunters, The InBetween, Swamp Thing, and More 2018-19 Season Sci Fi and Fantasy Shows

The 2018-19 season wraps up this week and quite a number of shows were cancelled this past year with several more currently facing uncertain fates. Now is the time for you to make your voice heard and cast your vote for the show that you believe most deserves to continue, whether it has already been cancelled or has yet to be renewed. The poll below has all of the shows that were cancelled this past year plus those that are still waiting for an announcement.

I will be sharing these results with the networks and they have shown a willingness to pay attention to numbers beyond what Nielsen reports these days (even the streaming services can be swayed by the voices of the fans). Lucifer and The Expanse were saved by Netflix and Amazon respectively last season and it’s possible that some of this year’s struggling or cancelled shows could elude the Network Executioner as well if their fans are active and engaged. Cast your vote below and share this post with others in order to show your support. And you can read more about what you can do to support your shows at our Call to Action page.  You can see the status of all the currently active and returning shows at our Cancellation Watch page, and you can keep of with status updates with our Weekly Roundup.  And be sure to follow the #CancelledSciFiArmy on Twitter to bolster our ranks and help us fight for the struggling and cancelled sci fi and fantasy shows.

    1. There was no tie-breaker. This is all about the fans supporting their shows with The OA and Shadowhunters both proving to be big winners and showing the power of social media these days.

      1. Uhhh this sucks , we have to fight a bot all day long to stay ahead of them . We won this poll as of yesterday . I know they are using bots because another poll we doing caught them using bots .

      2. Also if you wanted Shadowhunters to win this poll that’s fine , You should have told us that . It would have saved us time organizing and promoting this site . But as of yesterday The OA won this poll . We have lots of things we are organizing and mobilizing people to do . Is this poll going to keep getting extended for another day so that shadowhunters can catch up and pass us ?

        1. Both shows won the poll. It’s not about which one received the most votes, it is about the amazing outpouring of support for both shows. These results will be shared with the networks.

  1. I love how the Shadowhunters community just destroyed every other show. The OA is thousands of votes behind ?. #SaveShadowhunters !

  2. why people are voting for Shadowhunters? it makes no sense… a final season was announced way before it even started, and the show had an ending for all characters. The OA was supposed to have 5 seasons and then Netflix cancelled after the 2nd arrived.

    1. Because it was supposed to have a fourth season. They cancelled the contract. Learn the facts before posting because that’s flat out wrong.

    2. SHADOWHUNTERS WAS CANCELLED FORGOD’S SAKE !! IT NEVER SAID HOW SEASONS IT WILL HAVE THE WRITERS HAD PLANS FOR SEASON 4 AND 5 WTH!YOI CAN VOTE FOR YOUR SHOW BUT I CAN’T VOTE FOR MINE??

  3. The best tv show I’ve seen in my 76yrs in a long time is THE SHADOWHUNTERS .You can’t go wrong with this one.It has all age group attention.I love this show.

    1. Lmao shadowhunters sucks. Also, theres no reason to renew it. The story is completed.
      The whole vampires and werewolves shtick is so overdone, and has been since twilight came out ages ago.

      1. Shadowhunters sucks ? i guess you haven’t watched the show completly just the first few episodes,i’m glad to tell you the rest of the seasons are way bettet and more improved,don’t jufge a book by it’s cover shadowhuntets is about love,accepting the difference between people and loving each person for who he is,you will se that as you watch the show,Malec are oneof the rrasons we want it back,a wonderful couple that understand each other and accept each other so well it will amaze you ! i really suggest you watch it carefully and get my point

      1. i few weeks? lol we all were voting because we thought it ended on the 1st September, not gonna waste more time here then.

      2. Yo, find a way to deactivate multiple voting via anonymous tabs and restart the poll. Everyone is voting a bazillion times and those numbers are fake.

        1. The poll is limiting people to one vote. And it’s not as if the show getting the most votes is the “winner”. This is about fans demonstrating support for their shows. All of those topping the poll have proven that they have strong fan support and the numbers will be shared with the networks.

  4. I REALLY LOVE TO SEE SEASON 4 OF SHADOWHUNTERS BECAUSE IT’S A FASCINATING SHOW TO WATCH? PLEASE SOMEONE COME AND #SAVESHADOWHUNTERS SEASON 4
    #TEAM MALEC FOREVER IN MY LIFE AND IN MY HEART?

    1. Please Shadowhunters must be saved! It’s best show and have made many awards and the cancellation is crazy because people still want it #Shadowhunters #Saveshadowhunterd

  5. Had to vote for my favorite The OA. It’s such a unique and batshit crazy story with amazing writing that’s littered with clues and riddles everywhere. The OA is by far the most ambitious show I’ve ever seen and it’s just plain unfair to all of the loyal fans to cancel it on the single most insane cliffhanger in television history. Also, to cancel it because of low viewership when you put zero effort into promoting it whatsoever and then hearing a lot of fans didn’t even realize there was a second season until they heard of the uproar over the cancellation is just terrible business. There are some other shows that i wish could be saved too. Deadly Class was my favorite new show. The Passage was just getting started and i was shocked that Fox gave up on it so soon. Travelers was a good one with an interesting and different take on time travel. Swamp Thing was amazing and DC Universe really dropped the ball on that one. Channel Zero was one of the most underrated shows around and everything, in terms of story, that American Horror Story wishes it could be. Then yet another SYFY mistake was Happy! That show deserves a home somewhere. Origin was another underrated show that i just don’t think anyone was aware of because it was stuck on YouTube. Oh, and how could i forget, krypton! The viewers dropped off for some reason but the quality didn’t, I’m kinda hoping HBO Max scoops that one up. What i’ve learned from this is: screw the SYFY network. They have lost all trust with me, if it wasn’t for the magicians, i wouldn’t watch anything on there anymore. Netflix is heading down that same path with all the cliffhanger cancellations and I’m already done with them.

          1. We are not choosing anything. We are passing along the number of votes to the networks for them to see the fan dedication.
