有關Forever遭取消的後續 - 歐美

Forever的被取消從相關的報導來看，似乎是非常意外的結果。

老實說，或許也很巧合，因為這是2014-15秋季檔中唯一不是出自ABC自家的新劇(WBTV)

而從演員、劇組的反應也看得出來，他們似乎也感到很意外，而且後來收視情況有好轉
因為WBTV在這之前已經非常努力的希望配合ABC讓節目能夠獲得續約。
(最近的前例是在A&E的Longmire)

或許，還有最後一絲的希望就是WBTV跟其他(例如有線台)達成接手協議。

最後，附上Ioan致所有劇迷的回應

My dear friends, fans, supporters.

Tonight, as you all now know, I received a phone call that I was hoping not
to receive, and to be honest I really wasn’t expecting it. I knew the
numbers hadn’t been great, but I also knew the studio and the network both
loved the show, and of course that it had an incredible fan base…so I
thought we were in with a pretty good chance.
But sadly no, this time the cards weren’t dealt in our favor. Show business
is like that. Hell, life is like that. You ride to the top of the wave and
then you come crashing down again. I asked Alice to send out the sad news
because I was a little bit shaken up and needed time to gather my thoughts.

ABC's "Forever" - Season OneSo I sat down and started reading the thousands
of Tweets in response to the announcement. And the more I read, the more I
couldn’t believe it. The love, the sense of solidarity, the hope, the
kindness, the support. Not just for the show, but for each other. And slowly
I began to focus on what we had gained in the past year, rather than what we
had lost in the last five minutes. I was overcome by a sense of gratitude. To
have met you all and to have you all rooting for me and the show. At having a
chance to play the role of my dreams, even if it was only for a year. To have
been given the chance to bring Henry to life.

Watching the interaction of the FOREVER fans come together and share their
love for the show has been breath-taking. It was you guys who held me up when
I thought I could no longer go on. (Those days were LONG!) You made me smile
when you pointed out the little things I did on screen that I thought had
gone unnoticed. You gave me confidence when I accidentally found myself
reading less than shining reviews. You were always with me, every step of the
way, waving your flags, shouting your support for the show. It’s been an
incredible, wonderful year, one that I will never, ever forget.

And guess what? The memories belong to us. We get to keep them ‘forever!’
Thanks again a million times for your unwavering support. Stay strong, be
brave, and show kindness as often as you can!
