The venerable sitcom has been cancelled after seven seasons on the air. No season eight for Rules of Engagement.
The cancellation doesn’t come as a surprise. The ratings have been down this year and a couple of the actors had been cast in other projects. If CBS and the studio wanted to bring it back for year eight, they’d have to renegotiate contracts which wouldn’t have been cheap.
The series finale, which will also be the 100th episode, airs on Monday, May 20th.
What do you think? Are you sorry that Rules has been cancelled or is the timing right?
The show was very funny David Spade is hilarious, I hate when they end good TV shows.There has been other shows that the ratings come no where near a million and they continue to keep them on some of them I like others I don’t.Hope they bring it back for one more season.
I can not believe the show is done! I barley started watching it! I watched Netflix from season 1 to 7. I hate that the show left you hanging! Season 8 would have been GREAT! To see what happen between Timmy and Russell, Jeff, Aud and Shay and the new one on the way, oh and if Jennifer and Adam end up having a baby as well…..so much could have happen in season 8,9,10, 11 and 12 the seasons could have went on! This show made me laugh out loud every time and I am a very sarcastic person and… Read more »
I think that Rules was a very very humorius show. I do not understand how you could cancel right when the story line has just changed so dramatically. With the Baby and the Pregnancy. I think it would be great fun to see this unfold.
Couldn’t agree with you more! I really would like to see another network pick it up. I want to see it end with dignity rather than just canceled. This show deserves better than that.
I love this show. I can’t believe they cancelled such a funny show. I’m totally disappointed!!
I too amd upset they discontinued the show. Seems like they do it on purpose. So what if they cast require more money.Thats just the price you have to pay in order to make a good show.
I recently bought a Roku and found this show on Netflix. Watched every episode and cant for the life of me figure out how the execs thought it was I a good idea to cancel the show. I mean, Russell and Timmy married!! Come on, that’s three more seasons right there!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too bad the execs cant see passed their wallets.
I can’t agree with you more! The network takes very good quality shows such as ROE and replace them with something that will fatten their wallets more. I think they could have gone as far as 12 seasons or maybe more. I am so upset with the network just yanking the show without a show finale. The cast and crew deserved so much more than this. Another couple if newer sitcoms got the same slap in the face, Sean Saves The World and The Millers! Both of these shows were extremely hilarious and SSTW was dumped in the 1st season… Read more »
This has been one of my top comedies! I am now watching reruns of it (that’s something I never do) because I miss the show and great cast. What makes me mad is the networks get rid of really good shows and replace them with this garbage they call reality shows. The cost of making a reality show is far less than doing a show with actors. Therefore saving the networks much more money to line the executives pockets. They don’t give a crap about the fans of the shows or the actors.
My favorite show, Hate that its over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please please please bring it back I only started watching it and I love it please bring it back it’s so funny please 🙂
I love this show, I’m so sad it is canceled I want to see baby che get bigger and I want to see the new baby to come and I’m sure Adam and Jen will have one of their own. They could do so many more seasons how they left it. I think I speak for us all when I say they need to bring this awesome show back for many more seasons. I know I would watch it! Really miss this show.
I love this show I truly think it was the funniest show on tv. So glad netflix has it on I have watched every episode at least twice.
The actors should be given at least one to two more seasons to seal the deal, the ending was good but upsetting at the same time. Hope they renegotiate contracts sooner than later, gonna miss you guys!
i love this show!! this is one of the funniest shows. it is so sad it was cancelled!! they should bring it back even if they have to negotiate contracts. please bring this show back. i love all of the characters.
Can’t believe this show is being cancelled 🙁 One of my favourite shows, always made me laugh…not happy!
Come on I absolutely love rules of engagement sadface don’t end make like 2 more seasons.
