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?

I’ve never heard of this show but as soon as i started to watch it I got stuck. I was very hurt to find out that there was only three seasons. Please consider bringing this show back from the dead. I think making another series would give this show exactly what it needs to get the ratings up especially since it has been so long.
Please consider bringing Hawthorne back for Season 4. This show has a great story line and i would like to see how it plays i just watched all 3 seasons back to back for 2 days staying up all hours of the night cause i just wanted to no what happened next. Please please please please bring back Hawthorne.
Why?? I loved the series! Please please reconssider TNT for at least a 4th season? From a big fan in Holland!
I think we should start a petition and get Hawthorne back on air!! We need to know what happen. This was a great show and I can’t believe those numbers! #WeWantHawthoRNeBack
I just finished watching all three seasons of Hawthorne thanks to Netflix and loved it! I’m actually pissed that I don’t get to see how the story line ends. I think by far this was one of Jada Pinkett Smith’s best acting gig.
There are a lot of recent comments about this. I’ve seen a lot of passionate fans developing their own theories etc of the series. We should all try again to get the show back. Possibly petition or write to the producers and writers. 1. I feel at the time, they were competing with other big shows and that’s why it failed. Shows like Breaking Bad, and True Blood were huge that summer plus since It was a summer show, a lot of shows in the summer fail because if they’re not competing against a big show, most people are on… Read more »
Hawthorne is one of my favorite TV shows. its crazy because i been watching Hawthorne on Netflix all this weekend kept watching it over and over. I also asked my mom why didn’t they do a fourth season? I wish they will bring the series back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I loved Jada and Marc Anthony’s chemistry! Please bring the series back…
My daughter and I have recently found this series on Netflix and love it! I am so sad that it was cancelled so soon. Maybe It can become a Netflix Original and they can pick the series up where it left off? Great acting and I loved the shows energy!
I just watched Hawthorne on netflex. Very disappointed that it was cancelled. I hope another network pick up the show
I’m so very dissapoinred there are no future seasons not everyone watches shows on TV anymore they tape it or buy them ! Seriously leaving the show the way uou did was unacceptable! Please at least going back on more to end things somehow better than it did! Not cool! I loved this show and would love to see hawthorne back with Tom maybe a miracle baby etc
I agree with you. I do not feel they gave how thorns and Tom a good try.
I cant believe that they cancelled the show. i Just watched it on Netflix and its a great show. its Bad management to cancel a show that is so good. Please bring back HawthoRNe.
I agree I just watched hawthoRNe on netflix amazing show my guess is that it just had a bad time slot on and clashed other favorites.
Really hoping that you reconsider putting the show back on.
All done with TNT. Never Never heard of closing an unfinished series. Poor management
I would never recommend anyone to watch this on netflix. I think at the least they should show a season 4 even if its a couple episodes to put an THE END on it. I have never seen such a thing. I know a couple people starting to watch it and I now will advise them to stop. Or at least put something on website to advised what happens and what everyone is doing. Nothing like putting a 1000 piece puzzle together and find out at end your missing a couple piece’s Very Poor network and writer. Don’t think I… Read more »
I watched HawthoRNe in 3 days on Netflix and am so upset that they ended the show. I hate the idea we are left assuming Tom killed Nick. I so wanted to see Tom and Christina get back together with Tom filling the papers. They would have done so well, along with Bobby running James River Hospital.
I believe honestly if you have an addiance of any number keep running it. Or let sites like Netflix or somewhere have it for the dedicated audiance. Some money is better the. No money.
Please renew it or else i not going to watch any of your shows anymore.If you do have Tom and Christina get back together because they were so go together.Many people want te show back so please renew it now or go **** yourself.
