The CW has pulled the plug on Cult.



The network has removed the programme entirely from its revised Friday night lineup for April, with six episodes of the season yet to air.

Creator Rockne O'Bannon confirmed the news on Twitter, namechecking all the cast members involved in the show.

"Cult Sadly true," he wrote. "CW Execs once called the last 5 episodes 'outstanding.' I guess too outstanding. You are great, SMART fans. Thx to u all!"

Repeats of The Carrie Diaries and Oh Sit! will replace Cult in the schedules.

The Matt Davis-starring show was originally aired on Tuesdays but was soon swapped to Fridays after low ratings.
