Conspiracies are theorized in this new thriller starring Anthony Edwards as the author of a skeptics magazine who gets caught up in a conspiracy of his own. And this one goes all the way to the top!
Not looking good out of the gate:
'Zero Hour' Ratings: Least-Watched ABC Scripted Premiere Ever
"Zero Hour" premiered with a ratings thud on Thursday night for ABC. Only 6.3 million viewers watched the debut of the Anthony Edwards occult adventure series, making it the lowest-rated premiere for a scripted series in ABC history. The episode scored a low 1.3 rating in the key 18-49 demographic.
As a point of reference, the now-cancelled ABC nuclear submarine drama "Last Resort" premiered to an audience of more than 9 million viewers with a 2.2 rating in the demo in the same Thursday at 8 p.m. EST timeslot during the fall season.
That timeslot did "Zero Hour" no favors. The freshman series was going up against ratings powerhouses "American Idol" and "The Big Bang Theory," which attracted 13.2 and 17.6 million viewers respectively.

I don't really like anything that has occult or paranormal themes to them. I don't know why but those type shows have never caught my fancy. I really am finicky but wish I weren't.
I have given myself a big pat on the back for stepping outside my tv entertainment comfort zone for falling in love with Game of Thrones. It's the only fantasy show I've ever liked and I had tried some of the others before.
I don't know, I'm just weird that way.
