The 13th episode of Syfy’s “Blood Drive” literally just aired tonight, and it’s unfortunately going to forever be the last. The grindhouse-style series, which premiered back in June, has just been cancelled by Syfy after just one season.

Series creator James Roland just broke the news over on his blog, citing low ratings as the reason why Syfy decided to pull the plug on his blood-soaked baby.

“I’m not privy to all the details,” Roland wrote. “Obviously the ratings were low, but it was also a very noisy show on social media (thanks to you guys!) and a very well-reviewed show with critics as well. This I do know: despite canceling us, Syfy was the only network with the steel to make the show in the first place.”

He continued, “It was Syfy that took the risk, and for that I’m forever grateful, even if I did get super pissy whenever I couldn’t show enough gore and dick and titties. But I’m confident they knew it was just because I’m a pervert and didn’t take it personally. I’m bummed that Blood Drive didn’t pay off for them the way they wanted but I can’t believe we got away with a full season of the CRAZIEST show on TV.”

Roland also noted that he *hopes* this isn’t the end.

“There’s definitely no season two in the immediate future, but I remain cautiously optimistic there’s more story to tell in this world,” he explained. “NBC|Universal owns the show so when the time comes I’ll approach them with some ideas and we’ll see what they think.”

Farewell, “Blood Drive.” And thanks for the gory memories.
