On April 26, NBC’s press release announced drama series that would be renewed for the 2013-14 season, Deception wasn’t on that list of titles. The network has officially canceled the dramatic soap series after one season.
Shadow And Act is reporting Deception (which starred Meagan Good and Laz Alonso), debuted to 5.6 million viewers and a 2.0 rating, which wasn’t all that strong to begin with. After its debut, it hovered around the 3+ million viewers mark, a 40% drop from its premiere highs, which is hefty. Its first season ended on March 18, airing 11 episodes total.
In the end, Deception found it difficult to stand out in a crowded field while drawing constant parallels to ABC’s Revenge.
