It probably had to be the cost of the show. Neighbors is going to cost way less relative to ratings. I mean Last resort does have a whole submarine set, tons of marine tac gear, explosives, weapons, vehicles, dive equipment, not to mention a whole tropical island on the books.
If even the best performing shows in the genre can't keep up with reality TV like American Idol in ratings, you know what's going to get produced more. For example American Idol clocked 30+million viewers vs 24's season peak 9+ million. I blame the demographic of the American masses just as much as ABC cheapness. Though I guess the premise of the show itself didn't seem like it could last more than a couple of seasons anyways like some others have said.
EDIT: Wtf Americans? Elementary with crappy Lucy Lieu has more viewers than Last Resort? 10m vs 9m?
