Interestingly, though a decline in ratings was the reason the series was canceled, according to Rotten Tomatoes, Witches of East End actually did better in the second season, according to the average viewers.
Season 1 had an average audience member score of 83 percent and a critic score of 71 percent, while Season 2 had a 90 percent audience score and a 60 percent critic score.
Many people were frustrated by the cancellation of Witches of East End. After the announcement in 2014, a petition went around to renew the series, which has nearly 300,000 signatures.
#RenewWitchesofEastEnd became a popular tag on Twitter, and even a few celebrities like Channing Tatum, William Shatner, and Snooki got involved, though the petitions haven’t yet led anywhere.
