Carnivale was a great show that was cancelled after the second season. It features Tarot readers, mediums, healers and other great characters. In this scene, Sofie does a Tarot reading and discovers that Ben is an amazing healer. Sofie reads the tarot cards, but the catatonic woman they keep showing is her mother the true Medium.

love Carnivale wish it was still on.
HBO cancelled the show because the budget was extremely high..though clearly well used.
Outstanding TV show 🙂 I like HBO but why you stopped that series huh ? Shame on you…
This scene is amazing. Both characters have abusive mothers and long-lost EVIL fathers. They could empathize a lot if they weren’t both so confused, scared, repressed, and self-loathing.
Nick Stahl’s character finally rebels against his mother at the end of this scene. “They ain’t marked.” He does great work in this series.
Clea Duvall – great actress, her shy, confused, dark character is one of the most interesting, attractive performances I’ve seen.
Always finding new stuff whenever i watch it,..it’s simply amazing,..tho an unfinished series,..no one seems to know real reason(s) why it was cancelled but HBO surely ruined a good thing,..between this series and Rome,..i was locked in for the winter, lol. Just re watched entire 24 episodes this week,..and love it even more,…
Nick Stahl is awesome
Depends, if you liked series such as Twin peeks and Deadwood this is definitely your cup of tea.
so this show was supposed to have six seasons but got cut short in season two becuz it lost viewers. i never saw it so im wondering about buying it. is it worth it? like is it really worth it or is it just ok? cuz i need a new series to get into.
There is no answer because the 2 seasons were the first of three ‘books’. Each book was part of thebigger overall story. It was canceled because it had to be committed to 2 seasons at a time, and the cost was VERY high, something like 5 mil an episode.
One of the greatest TV shows of all time; simply classic!
i totally agree
best series ever, even though is american
This show was great maybe the best series ever. Some people were frustrated by all the subtext and the fact that they didn’t pound you over the head with “the answer” to every mystery, but that’s part of what made the story so enjoyable.
no i read that the writer doesnt want to put it all in a 3-hour movie.
It was cancelled after they made season 2…..they never had a chance to finish telling their story…..I thought that was reason enough. There is no Finish to the story because they werent able to tell it.
p.s.s. the question WAS…
i checked my mailbox, and this ‘answer’ came after the other, so i reacted on “garytwoshoes”…
grtz
what’s HBO..?
and what do you mean with;
only to cancel the two shows they hyped about to replace the shows..?
[by cancelling they waited to notice if the crowd would miss these shows y/n..?]
p.s. i don’t know deadwood… i will check it out…
the question was and is..;
WHY there is no ‘ending’, that it was cancelled is not the reason…
the question adapted..; WHY was it cancelled..?
The show had a big audience but after a 3 or 4 episodes it dropped. HBO cancels two good show like this one and Deadwood only to cancel the two shows they hyped about to replace the shows.
yeah, by raping her mother…
filth
I think the reason was that after the made season 2 it was cancelled
what..? didn’t know they have not ‘closed’ their story, just watched season 1, curious about 2, because there is no ‘end’…
do you know the reason..?
Oh god, let’s hope so!
I can’t recall where I read but apparently there’s talk of a HBO movie to finally close the story.
Yep!
I alwasy felt robbed the way the show ended. Correct me if I’m wrong…Sofie is Justin’s child right?
