It appears that The CW is not going to invest any more time in letting Cult catch on with viewers. The network has changed its Friday schedule, pulling the low-rated show off the air in favor of airing repeats of The Carrie Diaries.

Series creator Rockne O’Bannon took to Twitter to discuss the network’s decision. The network hasn’t released an official confirmation of the cancellation, however O’Bannon had this to say about the probable decision:

“#Cult Sadly true. CW Execs once called the last 5 episodes “outstanding”. I guess too outstanding. You are great, SMART fans. Thx to u all!” – ‏@Rockne_S

He added that the cast which includes Matt Davis, Jessica Lucas, and Robert Knepper had delivered amazing work in the final five (unaired) episodes.
