"Agent X" has been cancelled after airing its first season.

Examiner confirmed that the critically-acclaimed TV series will not be having its second season as announced by TNT TV network. The show's cancellation is one just one of many as fellow TNT shows "Public Morals" and "Legends" are also getting the boot.

However, no reason has been given as to why "Agent X" was cancelled as of press time.

But the rumor mill claims that "Agent X" was axed after it garnered low TV ratings but this speculation, however, remains unverified.

TV Guide supported the news and even cited that the show's cancellation came amid the series' casting of powerhouse actress Sharon Stone.

Sharon Stone plays the role of Vice President Natalie Maccabee who handles a government secret intelligence group where she met operative John Case played by Jeff Hephner. Other cast members of "Agent X" are John Shea, Gerald McRaney, Mike Colter, Jamey Sheridan and James Earl Jones.

With the news of the show being cancelled, many "Agent X" fans are speculating about how season 1 might end.

In a report by the TV Series Finale, it was said that "Agent X" will end with two back-to-back episodes.

For the first installment entitled "Penultimate," John Case is inclined to side with the wrong guys when his girlfriend Pamela Richardson played by Carolyn Sotesber was kidnapped by Volker. The latter is interested on the Geryon device that John captured during one of his operational activities.

The plot then evolved on the how John's handler, Malcolm Millar, keeps the challenge of handling him despite the dilemma he is facing.

For the season finale titled "Fidelity," John is set to save the American President and other top leaders in a huge event at the Paris Opera House. John's boss, Natalie, is accompanying the top leaders.

While "Agent X" has been cancelled, its followers and viewers are assured with an action-packed and thrilling season finale.
