Poppy Montgomery Crime Drama ‘Reef Break’ Canceled on ABC After One Season

French co-production aired over the summer

ABC has canceled the crime drama “Reef Point,” starring Poppy Montgomery, after just one season.

The hour-long drama starred Montgomery as Cat Chambers, a thief-turned-fixer for the governor of a Pacific Island paradise. The 13-episode first, and now only, season premiered in June. The show was based on an idea of Montgomery’s, with former “Numb3rs” showrunner Ken Sanzel attached to write and executive produce. A French-co-production, “Reef Break” was made by ABC Studios and ABC Studios International in partnership with M6, where it aired in France.

The show’s cancellation comes just a week after a shakeup at ABC Studios International, which produced “Reef Break” alongside Montgomery’s Wild Poppy Entertainment production outfit, as Disney reevaluates its overseas business following the 20th Century Fox purchase.
