Freeform announced back in June 2018 that its beloved show “Shadowhunters” had been canceled. The show is based on a series of books, titled “The Mortal Instruments” by Cassandra Clarke. The show aired in January of 2016 and has had a spectacular three seasons over the almost three years since it’s premiere.

The show follows Clary Fray (Katherine McNamara) as she learns on her 18^th birthday that she comes from a line of demon hunters, called “Shadowhunters.” Clary navigates a world of demons and monsters with the help of her friends, Jace Herondale (Dominic Sherwood), Alec Lightwood (Matthew Daddario) and Isabelle Lightwood (Emeraude Toubia).

While the fans have always loved the show, it never really had the higher numbers of some of Freeform’s other shows. According to TVSeries Finale, the show averaged a 0.13 rating in the 18-49 demographic and had an average of 341,000 viewers per episode.

These numbers are a significant drop from season 2, which had a 0.26 rating in the same demographic and an average of 648,000 views an episode. These dropping numbers added to Freeform’s financial difficulties, this show didn’t make the cut to stay on the air.

The fans have not given up yet, creating a petition on change.org to save the show. The petition now has 196,508 signatures out of its goal of 200,000. The petition was created a year ago and still gets signatures today.

In addition to this, fans hired a plane to fly over Netflix HQ flying a sign saying "#SaveShadowhunters," and the company even tweeted a photo of it.

Fans also rented a billboard in Times Square and a subway ad in Seoul, South Korea according to Digital Spy.

In addition to these pleas, the fans raised money for The Trevor Project, donating over $12,000 in the name of "#SaveShadowhunters" according to Hypable. There is still no news regarding a reboot of the series, but fans are holding out.
