THEOcracy has picked up a post from Jill Wagner, who stated that Spike TV has cancelled Blade: The Series:

Just wanted to say thanks again to all of you who supported me and Blade the Series. I was just informed today that there will be NO 2nd season of Blade the Series. I really enjoyed playing Krista and i hope that i did her justic at least for one season! However, that is not the end of Jill Wagner's acting career. I will keep you guys posted on what's next for me. Again i say thanks for the support. Hey, there is always the DVD right????

The series started off strong early in the season but lost viewers as it went on.

Jill wasnt the problem with the show. I did not like the blade actor. I hope she gets something else. It started off very high for Spike, it means people liked the idea, they just didnt do it right.

Jill Wagner was the best part of the show. The concept of her character was cool, and a series that revolved around her being "undercover" in the vampire world would have worked better. Heck, they could have made "Underworld: The Series" and it would have worked better than Blade.

The mistake the producers made was making the lead title character the least interesting person on the show, while also casting the worst actor, who obviously wasn't athletic enough for the martial arts fight scenes.

sticky fingaz just didn't have what it took to play blade. he was too stiff and didn't have a playful type persona like wesley snipes sometimes showed in the movies when he was being serioius dusting vamps. as for jill i enjoyed watching her on the show. it's too bad that the last thing we'll see of her character is that she was uncovered and quite possible about to get herself killed. i would like to have known what would have happened next.

Jill Wagner was great on the show. The guy who played Blade wasn't good though.

I hope Jill gets another show, she seems like a great actress
