Audience and Critical Reception

When Click was launched to fill in the void of TGIS, critics were saying that the show will not be able to reach the hysteria created by its predecessor but sky high ratings and positive review of the show later proved the critics wrong and ironically many TGIS alumni also guested on the show.

Cancellation

Faced with the absence of new actress Valerie Concepcion due to her unexpected pregnancy, Click producers tried to save the series by ushering newcoming actors like Jennylyn Mercado and Mark Herras. This move did not help and therefore prompted the management of GMA Network to cease the production of the show.
