No 3rd season for ‘Alphas’

The cable network has canceled the one-hour drama.

“We’ve been proud to present this entertaining, high-quality series for two seasons and to work with an incredible ensemble of talented actors, producers and creatives as well as our partners at BermanBraun Television,” Syfy said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter. “We’d like to thank the show’s dedicated regular viewers for their tremendous support.”

“Sad to say that ALPHAS will not be returning. What an honor to get to play Rachel for 2years & to work w/ & for the MOST AMAZING PEOPLE EVER,” wrote cast member Azita Ghanizada on Twitter on Wednesday.

This comes months after Alphas wrapped its sophomore season in October with just a little more than 1 million viewers tuning in to the finale. Alphas, starring David Strathairn, began with more than double that viewership in July 2011 with 2.5 million viewers for its series launch.
