It’s the end of the competition for Make It or Break It. ABC Family has cancelled the TV show after three seasons on the air.
Make It or Break It revolves around top young gymnasts who are training for the Olympics. The series debuted in mid-June 2009 to a 0.8 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 2.5 million total viewers. The ratings fell as low as a 0.6 in the demo with 1.9 million but that was still enough for the cable channel to renew it for a second season of 20 episodes.
The ratings got worse in season two but ABC Family still renewed Make It or Break It for a third season. This time however, they only ordered eight episodes. According to network president Michael Riley, it was “in time to ignite Olympic fever.”
If there were a possibility of ABC Family ordering a fourth season, those chances were pretty quickly dashed. Season three debuted to a 0.7 in the demo and 1.57 million. By week two, viewership had dropped off more than 25% and the numbers fell further in week three.

The five episodes of season three that have aired thus far have averaged a 0.5 in the demo with 1.23 million total viewers.
At least part of the decline may have been due to the losses of Chelsea Hobbs and Josh Bowman (who’s now on Revenge). Coach Sasha (Neil Jackson) also hasn’t been seen much this season.
Of the cancellation, series creator Holly Sorenson tweeted, “MIOBI nation. We all love you so much. And we are, very sadly, three weeks away from the series finale of #miobi.”
The final episode of Make It or Break It airs on May 14th.
What do you think? Were you still watching? Are you sad that the show is ending?

I think they need to bring make it or break it back, when I had watched all they had made I went on Google and looked up if they were making a 4th and I was sad that they aren’t making it because I got really into the gymnastics and drama and all that so I think they need to bring it back.
I was overjoyed to find season 3 on Hulu and now I see that there are only 8 episodes!? What in the world were they thinking???
Guys! There is 4season at finnish netflix
I’m still angry to this day it is canceled, I loved this show. I’m so mad at where it left off , people all over the world are. AIR IT AGAIN!
please bring this series back, my 8th yr old daughter wants to be a gymanst because of this series
esta serie não pode terminar porque é muito boa, por isso por favor comecem a gravar outra vez porque ainda ha muita gente que gosta dela e que quer ver o que acontece
Season 4 please come
Why did you guys do this to me?! I am 14 years old and I loved make it or break it ! When I found out it was being canceled I nearly cried. Please bring it back in pretty sure it’ll have lots of views if it was bought back considering the show was about teenagers and the world today revolves around teenagers.
I loved that show because it inspired me to move on in life I am a gymnast because of that show will want to be and going to be that show inspired me to move toward in life instead if looking back at the bad things since that show was canceled I don’t have anything to look at to inspire me please just make one more season with Emily or without and I would feel much better and many other people to
there need to be a need to see who wins
Please I need to know
I think it should continue with the lead actors. Basically a good program but would like to see less “I promise you”. There are other ways to state vows, assurances and/or promises. It’s a good program.
This movie is one in a kind. I still can’t stop watching it. I would really like to know who won at the Olympics. Please,please, please don’t stop because some of us are still looking forward to it
Please please please bring the series back! Best ever!
Please please bring it back! Best series ever!
Are u serious !! No! You cant! This show is so much better then others! Bring it back!! NOW!!!!!!!!
bring it back !!!
I loved and I love this show too much, I would have liked knowing who have won the olympics games or knowing what happened if Emily did not be pregnant! I’d like so much a new season, a re-make or this kind of series with boy’s gymnastics
