TNT has pulled the plug on their medical drama, HawthoRNe. The Jada Pinkett Smith TV series has been cancelled after three seasons on the air.
The cancellation news comes following the end of the third season a couple weeks ago. Despite having a strong start in its freshman year, HawthoRNe’s ratings have declined over the past two seasons.
Year three ended up averaging a 0.7 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.51 million viewers, a loss of 22% and 19% when compared to season two. Year two had averaged a 0.9 in the demo and 3.09 million, a decline of 18% and 9% from season one.
When compared to TNT’s other summer shows, season three HawthoRNe had one of the cable channel’s smallest audiences. Only already-cancelled Men of a Certain Age had worse numbers.
In a statement, TNT said, “TNT has decided not to order a fourth season of Hawthorne. TNT truly appreciates the tremendous dedication of everyone involved in Hawthorne. The series gave TNT the opportunity to work with many outstanding people, including Jada Pinkett Smith and the rest of the show’s talented cast, crew, producers and writers. We wish everyone involved with Hawthorne nothing but the best.”
What do you think? Are you sorry that HawthoRNe has been cancelled? Why do you think people stopped watching? What would you liked to have seen happen in season four?

OMG! I am so mad right now. I just watched all 3 seasons on netflix and now I’m engulfed in the series (and I don’t normally watch doctor shows) and your telling me there is no fourth season…Poppy ****, do we even get a farewell send off?
I have been waiting for this to come back on and finally decided to look it up only to find it has been taken off. Really??? There are so many stupid shows out there now and this is one of the best I have seen in a long time. I am very disapointed.
I really would like to see a 4th season of the show. Have been a fan since day one!!!!!
I hope another network picks this up. I really enjoyed this series and hope that if it’s picked up by another network the 4th season will be a happy ending…. Please get this back on air. The reality shows are getting on my nerves…. 🙁
Man I hate you ppl that took this series off the air I love this show and I really hope u come to your senses and put it back on jada I love u and your show what a shame they took it off
this is very disappointing!!!! I Love This Show!
IT ASHAME I JUST STARTED TO WATCH THE SHOW AND LOVE IT THEY SHOULD TRY IT AGAIN ON A DIFFERENT TIME ON DIFFERENT DAYS I HOPE THEY DO SEASON 4 YOU NEVER KNOW….
the networks seem to pull the plug rather than try to find better time slots, or other things they used to do to get a show on its feet. and to top it off, they leave us all hanging instead of some kind of conclusion to the story line. if it isnt going to be renewed, please at least have a final episode without a cliff hanger!
I don’t believe these ratings. I love this show and I am a minister. It touches bases with a little spice of everything in life. Great teaching tools for the young people. Esp Camille. I love all the characters too. Poor Nick, did he die?
I love the Show,Why Do You guy Always take the great shows off.I Didnt watch too much T.V to beagain with but this show got my atten.
Can u please bring the show back it’s not fair to us I mean how would u feel if everybody stop watching TNT let’s face it u dont have too many good episodes left
i really think you should give the peopel the veiwer a chance come on 3 season only they get better ever time you cant just give up on hawthorne it was just getting statered its not fair to the veiwer how want to to see more thats where you lose the money the fans i think you all put your mines together it will work i wached it and i liked it i rate it 4 stars
if you dont work on the next couple seasons you lost veiwers like us
Ithink this was one of the best shoes on TV
This is horrible
I cant believe the show was cancelled and you left us hanging with the Season 3 Finale , at least film 1 or 2 espiodes so that you can end the story line… i mean what happend to Nick, whats going to happen to Tom and Christina, this is totally unfair….This sucks for the fans of the show !!!!
