Production has been shut down immediately on the Miami set, although ABC will continue to air the remaining episodes on Thursdays.
After its premiere on September 22, Charlie's Angels received poor reviews, and has also suffered a sharp decline in ratings.
The Charlie's Angels reboot stars Minka Kelly, Rachael Taylor and Annie Ilonzeh, with Drew Barrymore as an executive producer.
Charlie's Angels joins other axed fall shows such as NBC's The Playboy Club and Free Agents.

I'm watching this on E4 and it's really good!

Because here they produce pretty much the whole series before it is aired. In the US it is still in production. Why would any business support a failing product? What else do you suggest they use instead of viewing figures? If they are low it means they cant charge the advertisers as much which means they lose money and then cant commission as many new tv shows next year.

You could tell from the casting, producers and the trailer that followed that this was destined to be distinctly average. I do agree though that U.S TV shows do not get enough time to establish themselves before their cancelled, how many ep's did this last for- 4 maybe 5?, pretty disgraceful really. Cheers was not an instant success and it took 3 years for that show to become a hit, unfortunately shows are just never given time these days. RIP Angels!

Gotta say I stopped watching this when in the 1st episode the Angels were forced into jumping into the sea and then in the next shot after getting out they still had full make-up on, dry clothes and no wet hair? I hadn't realised the Jacket that has a blow dryer in it out of Back to the future 2 had been invented!

Nikita is getting just short of 2 million viewers a week which is hopefully enough for it to survive on a Network like The CW. Look at the 90210 remake. It's been surviving for four years with more or less the same ratings. It's definitely a few leagues above this nonsense. I gave up on this after 2 episodes. Nikita is boss!
