Exciting new drama series Last Resort would have been on M-Net and would have started in January. Now the show might be cancelled and now it's not.
You're reading it here first.
Bummer: The exciting new drama series Last Resort about the crew of an American nuclear submarine who goes rogue and ends up at their own island would have started on M-Net on 2 January, but will now not be seen on the channel at all.
Two weeks ago Last Resort was not picked up for any further additional shows; Last Resort has not been cancelled outright technically yet, but the production was informed that there won't be any additional episode orders for now.
The cast and production all remain under contract and the actors have not been let out of their contract options and Last Resort will definitely see at least 13 episodes in America.
M-Net moved, and moved Last Resort off of the channel. The show is actually good, exciting and has great visual effects - especially the pilot episode plays like a riveting movie.
I asked M-Net whether Last Resort might just have been moved to later in the year and another month, or whether the show is off of the channel permanently. I'm told that Last Resort, as it stands, will not be airing at all on the channel.
