The Brave is lowering its flag. The military drama has been canceled at NBC.
The Brave landed the prime Monday 10 PM slot following The Voice but it didn’t take full advantage of its sizable lead-in. After a modest ratings delivery in the fall, NBC opted not to give the military drama a back order beyond the original 13 episodes. The Brave’s season-now-series finale was on January 29. Its Season 1 average was a 1.6 adults 18-49 in Live+7. It should be noted that the show that replaced it, Good Girls, didn’t do as well in the ratings but it was well received by critics and had a lucrative Netflix deal that lead to its season 2 renewal.
The Brave was described as a journey into the complex world of America’s elite undercover military heroes. While D.I.A. Deputy Director Patricia Campbell (Anne Heche) and her team of analysts wield the world’s most advanced surveillance technology from Washington, D.C., Adam Dalton (Mike Vogel) and his heroic Special Ops squad of highly trained undercover specialists use their unbreakable bond and commitment to freedom to save lives of innocent people and execute missions in some of the most dangerous places in the world. The series also starred Sofia Pernas, Tate Ellington, Natacha Karam, Demetrius Grosse, Noah Mills and Hadi Tabbal.
