CBS’ canceled series “Doubt” will have its unaired episodes shown on the small screen this summer, according to Variety.
The network ordered 13 episodes of the legal drama but pulled the show back in February after airing only two episodes. The show was canceled due to low ratings with Nielsen live-plus-same day numbers reporting the season premiere only brought in 5.3 million total viewers.
Tony Phelan, the show’s creator, announced the remaining unaired episodes will air starting Saturday at 8 p.m.
