After only one season, "10 Things I Hate About You" will say goodbye to its fans. ABC Family has canceled the teen drama after its rating fails to go beyond the 1 million mark and it reached all time low on April 12 episode "Great Expectations".
The first to reveal the sad news was executive producer/writer Carter Covington who wrote on his Twitter, "Sad news ABCFamily canceled the show :-( ...Enjoy the last 5 eps - they're fantastic!" The Thursday, April 29 posting was followed up by a confirmation from the show's rep to Zap2It.
There are five episodes left in the series before the finale on May 31. Covington previously told EW that the finale will end with "AWESOME cliffhanger."
Created based on the feature film of the same title starring Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger, the TV series follows the Stratford sisters, Bianca and Kat, who have different personalities but have the same circle of friends at Padua High. Gil Junger, who directed the film version, directs most of the first season's episodes.

This programme was one of my all time favourites to watch, i used to push myself through the week just to see it on a wednesday night. Their interpretation of the 1999 film is entertaining, realistic and teens all over the world can relate to the cliches of high school and teen romances. I was very upset when it got cancelled and I don't think it should have been so just for having less than a million viewers
I just finished watching the series. I knew there were only 20 episodes but I was still SAD AS HELL when I reached the end. This was actually one of the best teen shows around.
I just finished watching episode one in less than 24 hours and now I find out there's no episode 2! That's so unfair to the people who watch it and the fact that you left it like that and don't intend to finish it! nuh. No offence to America and all but I usually don't watch your tv shows as most the time they get on my freaking nerves but this one was pretty freaking good I mean its better than most the shit they produce over here and the one show I finally, FINALLY get into you cancel! THANK YOU AMERICA! uhh!!!!!!!!
This is NOT FAIR! I think we should all take a stand for it. This serie really gave me confidence and instead of all the other crappy TV shows I actually think that this is pretty awesome and inspirational...but I guess there's no point in me saying all this now... (Gee I must sound obsessed) MAKE A SEASON 2!!..please?
You can't make a cliff hanger and not finish it!!!!! Omg noooooo.... It's midnight there has to be more episodes! Fnerjrfenhijnifev so mad!!!
okay know what? If ABC Family won't bring back the drama at least this year ABC Family should better watch out! Wanna know what happens to katrick so badly!
what omgeeee... uhhh >.< make season 2 ...bet you get moreeeee ppl whatching!!!!!!!! plzzzzzzzzz....i want see what katz dad ganna do with her and patrick . i hate they left us like this >.< -_____-!
I was up all night watching every single episode and finished watching them at about 6am. They NEED to make a series 2!
I wish they would make a second series. I've just watched the whole first season in 3 days. I loved it! Season 2 please?
I am from Germany. I discovered this show recently and couldn't stop watching. I fell in love with the characters immediately. It is too bad that they had to cancel it. The cliffhanger was like a punch in the face^^ But I'll get over it, there are other great shows like this ;)
We were so devestated after watching the last episode and finding out that there was no second season. We are so depressed we might actually die right now. we LOVE this programme so much so please make a season 2!!!!!!!!! especially after leaving it at such a cliffhanger!!!
I just finished watching this show and the ending killed me! I would LOVE it if they made a proper ending for this quality show. I think that the loyal fans deserve at least that much!
I know that my opinion is not important... But Kat truly is all I wish I was. Brave, smart and never gives up. When they cancelled the show they also broke my heart. So please, bring it back.
Just finish watching it and what a way to end it :( I want to know what happens next!!
I can't believe how many times the word 'cancelled' was spelled incorrectly in this article.
please make another season or at least tell us what is meant to happen after the last episode!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im so addicted its not funny
what happend after they got caught in bed is their a final episode , how can i watch it ??
I absolutely love 10 Things I Hate about You and was devistated when the series got cancelled. I watched it religiously every week. The only thing that sucked was timing... I'm sure that's why the rating was soo low. There are a ton of awesome shows on Monday Nights and soo they should have moved the day to a different one. I'm sure the ratings would have definately increased with the schedule change because then more people who aren't addicted to other shows can watch this one. I REALLY WISH THEY WOULD MAKE ANOTHER SEASON AND JUST CONTINUE! Tons of people loved that show! It was amazing!
I wish the show wasn't cancelled... I usually hate dramas (Jersey...)but I enjoyed watching this show.
so i must say i don't get to watch much tv due to going to school full time and trying to get my own bussines going at 23 but this show was awesome. I was looking forward to watching it every night after work at the shop. Just finished the last episode and came to find out that there is no season 2. They really need to make another one. I would actually buy it instead of using netflix to watch it.
No wonder they have no viewers they always cancel the good shows they excite people with these shows then get rid of them I swear if ABC just advertises better and keep 10 things I hate about you on for s long time the viewers would go up. No offense ABC but no one wants yo watch ABC anymore and nobody listens to us say we want it back just like no one payed attention to the show because you guys don't know how to advertise well is the? Way you guys to listen to our advice to put the show back on
WHY THE HELL DID THEY CANCEL THIS, PETTITION, BE LIKE KAT AND PETTITION, KEEP THE SUCKY SHOWS, THROW OUT THE GOOD ONES, KEEP THE SHOW, KEEP THE SHOW, KEEP THE SHOW.
Please please please make a season 2. I love tue show so much. I will even pay a hundred just for you to make a season two!!!
PLEAAAAASEEE ! Make Season 2 ! :( The show was great ! And they ended it . The cliffhanger was not even that great :( no offence. But yeaa , it has been a year already . So i guess theyre really not gonna bring the show back . THAT S*CKS .

OH COME ON. Are you serious? I have joined a whole load of petitions to get 10 Things back on air but they still refuse! This show is amazing and the clifhanger isnt even good! I finished the first season in 2 days and now i just found out that its CANCELED?! ABC FAMILY YOU JUST LOST A TON OF VIEWERS AND IM NEVER WATCHING YOU AGAIN.
i love this show. i hope abcfamily shuts down.
ABC made the wrong decision for canceling the show, ABC sucks!
This show was AMAZING!!! So funny, and yet had so much drama--of course it didn't hurt that every time Patrick came on screen I melted :P
OMG I Hate ABC FamiLy why they cancel 10 Things I Hate About you ? This Movie Is Sooo AwesOme .. I Like it Sooo Much
This is THE BEST series I ever watched. I was so engross that I finished season one within four days. This is a tragedy for all the drama addicts out there :,( I REALLY LOVED this show!!
Whattttttttt????????!!!!! I love this show!!!! I think I'm going to cry!!! I hope that another season will come up!!!!
Every time I get into a tv show they cancel it, grrr. They should've aired it on more chanels or advertised it better. I live in England and I only got to watch an episode on TV once the rest I had to watch online. Stupid ABC family.
I was in love with this show! It was my favorite show on ABC Family and now it's gone? The cliffhanger sucked! They could've tried to make a 3rd season just to wrap everything up!
not many people have ABC if they put it on other channels and advertised it better way more ppl wud watch it and mayybe most ppl watch it on the internet , I HATE ABC FOR CANELLING THE SHOW I JUST GOT INTO IT !!!
So what you have other fans that love this show too! If you played it on channels that were actually popular it would have worked out!
aww they shouldn't of done that. bascially everyone at my skewl watches it. i like this better than all the other drama crap
they always cancel the good shows and keep the crappy ones and it seems impossible for a new sitcom to survive into a second season, I love sitcoms and I really hate reality shows but reality shows are cheaper to produce, it all comes down to money not quality of show. I'm so shocked.
This was my favourite show! I cannot believe they canceled it! Its crazy! If my friends heard about this show before it got canceled, they would have loved it as much as I do. The idea is original, two sisters with two totally different personalities, with such a hot boyfriend!!! Patrick <3 hes so hot!
c'mon i just got into this show and found out it was getting cancled! the reason there's no viewers cuz nobody knows about it i was talking with my friends about it and they never even heard of the show but when io told them about it they loved it! we need to do something about this!
THEY SUCK THIS SHOW HAS GREAT POTENTIAL IF THEY ADVERTISED THIS BETTER IT WOULD GET WAY MORE VIEWERS!!!!!
i really want to do something about this i <3 this show all the show i watch get cancled grrrr
im never watching any shows on abc again i love this show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY THE HELL WOULD THEY EVER CANCEL THIS SHOW OMGGGGGGGGGGG IM SOOO MAD AND I WANT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT I HATE THE PERSON WHO DID THIS AND IM NEVER WATCHING ABC FAMILY AGAIN EVEN THO IM WATCHING IT RIGHT NOW!!! LOL BU OMGGGGG
that show was awesome.... why would they cancel it... they also canceled Ruby and the Rockits. That was a cool show too..
this sooooo sucks...ABC family is making the biggest mistake in their life. they just need to advertise better! I love this series sooo much, its way better thatn secret life
I love the show. I agree, lets began a petition!!!!! I can't watch it go! It's too good. They left us at a cliffhanger. They can't dop this! Damn, abc family!!!
ABC FAMILY SUCKS IM NEVER WATCHING THEM AGAIN
HOW COULD THEY DO THIS??? I LOVE THIS SHOW AND WHAT KIND OF CLIFFHANGER IS THAT?? JUST BECAUSE IT DIDNT HAVE AS MUCH VIEWERS AS LAST TIME THEY "CANCELLED" IT? I CANT BELIEVE THIS. THEY ARE MAKING A HUUGE MISTAKE. I PROTEST A NEW SEASON!!!
I want this show to stayyyyyy! I just got into it!
NO HOW CAN THEY DO THIS?! WE HAVE TO SAVE THIS SHOW AND PROTEST! ONE TREE HILL WAS SUPPOSED TO END AT SEASON 7 BUT THE PEOPLE PROTESTED AND SEASON 8 IS IN THE MAKING SO WE CAN DO THIS! DONT LOSE HOPE PEOPLE! :)
It's a pitty they canceled it .Don't really know why it had so few viewers . I loved this show . Maybe because it was different , in a good way .

OK THEY CANCELLED UGLY BETTY NOT 10 THINGS OMG I FN HATE THEM!!!!! Y!! I MEAN IF THEY WOULD MAKE THE SHOW BE ON WED INSTEAD OF MON MAYBE IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT!! I REALLY HATE ABC NOW, only good shows left are Secret Life and Pretty Little Liars but lIARS casting suks execpt for one charcher WOWOWOWOW CANT ABC READ THIS AND SEE HOW MANY FANS WANT THIS SHOW TO STAY!!
I loved this show!!!! wich is really rare now days, and they go and cancell it...... and btw abc, the cliffhanger was NOT good!!!!
Why? WHy?! This show was the best! Even in Norway, we wachted the show! All of my friends watched it! Abc is making a huge mistake...... !
cant like another TV station pick it up? I LOVE this show soo much. Its about family, relationships, and school- Its GREAT!!! I really wish they werent cancelling it.
I HATE YOU ABC FAMILY! That was the WORST season finale that I've ever seen!
Why can't you just have more? i mean the ending was not a good cliffhanger! Its fine for the end of an episode but not the last evr episode! You want to know what happens, unless you have another series you end it properly with no loose ends! people need to no what happens if they are never going to find out on the tv!
i cant believe this, we cant do a petitition or something? this is like kyle xy all over again. i think it failed with ratings cuz they inly got a 30 minute time slot unlike secret life which had an hour!
Why do they have to cancel the best programs
I was soo effin shocked that next week is the series finale I love this show! There's gotta be something we can do…
This really sucks, such a talented cast what a waste. Couldn't they have worked something out, this show is too funny to cancel.
It's My So-Called Life all over again.
I can't believe this! I love this show. I am really picky about tv shows these days, because most shows suck now. 10 things rocks! All of their others shows are awful, I can't even watch the commercials for them. There is no reason for me to even turn to the channel anymore.
why would they do this i love this show
SERIOUSLY?! This is like one of the best shows I've seen! They're making a huge mistake and they're going to regret it. >:(
omg! abc family is going to suck without this show like all the ratings are gonna go away of that channel if this doesnt stay, atleast if they give the third seeason n give a chance for the viewers to catch up but now this dumb idiots cancelled one of these best shows n the least part is i really got into the story line n it sux not to have a finale episode!!!
Evewrytime I start watching a show, I figure out it's being canceled. Or already has. Gah! This is such a great show, which really few "disney productions" are.
NOOOOOOOOO :((
ugh! abcfamily is probably the stupidest channel on tv! why whould they cancel this! it's there fault, they kept of the air for so long and then started promos for it 2-3 weeks in advance, so most people probably didn't know it was on. Also, their making people pay to watch the episodes online, which is complete crap.
damn, and this was a good show! they had to cancel it! >.>
ABC family is making a huge mistake. This show is cute and funny- everything a half-hour should be.
Oh come ON. Why do they always have to cancel stuff I watch.
