This court won’t be back in session during the 2021-22 television season. CBS has cancelled the All Rise legal drama series so we won’t be seeing a third season.
All Rise stars Simone Missick, Wilson Bethel, Marg Helgenberger, Jessica Camacho, J. Alex Brinson, Lindsay Mendez, Ruthie Ann Miles, Lindsay Gort, and Audrey Corsa. The series follows the chaotic, hopeful (and sometimes absurd) world of those who work at a courthouse in Los Angeles. At the center of this drama series is Lola Carmichael (Missick), a recently appointed judge who was previously a highly regarded and impressive deputy district attorney. She depends on the counsel of people like her Deputy District Attorney Mark Callan (Bethel), Supervisory Judge Lisa Benner (Helgenberger), and pragmatic judicial assistant Sherri Kansky (Miles). Lola pushes the boundaries and challenges the expectations of what a judge can be and receives both support and pushback from those around her.
Airing on Monday nights, the second season of All Rise averages a 0.45 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 4.01 million viewers in the live+same day ratings. Compared to season one, that’s down by 27% in the demo and down by 26% in viewership. It’s one of the lower-rated scripted shows on CBS.
The cancellation follows a number of behind-the-scenes issues — including the departure of creator/showrunner Greg Spottiswood following misconduct allegations.
The de facto series finale will air on May 24th.
What do you think? Do you make a point to watch the All Rise TV series each week? Are you sorry that it’s been cancelled? Would you have tuned in for season three on CBS?
Nobody! You keep garbage and get rid of one of our favorite shows. Cbs should be ahamed.
Why why why. They are canceling all the good shows. This was so good. Big mistake
This show is great – funny sometimes – amazing no sex, drugs, bad language and it is cancelled – what a sorry state we are in
One of my favorite shows? How dare they cancel it!!!
I cannot believe you are cancelling All Rise. Lola and whole team rocks.
I love this show, Lola is a joy to watch in action and I adore Emily & Luke and Mark Callan as well. And you can NEVER go wrong casting Marg Helgenberger in anything, she rocks.
I too thought this was a very good show. Sorry to see it go.
Another dumb move by CBS.
I wish we could cancel CBS and renew All Rise
Hearing this sad news makes my heart hurt. There are only a few shows that my wife and I both watch together, All Rise is one of them. We look forward to seeing everyday issues portrayed in a fictional setting along with the twists and turns of the character’s personal lives. It’s refreshing to see an African American woman portraying a judge. SMH
All Rise is a terrific show but it is best when Lola as an active judge. We assume she was pregnant in real life. It would be great if CBS would give it another season now that she is back on the bench.
Great show … will miss it
I loved this show. I hate when they cancel just when you are getting into the characters. Please keep it on.
I have watched avidly from the beginning. I will be sorry to see it go.
I really enjoyed the show but always wanted Emily and Luke to get back together.
We love All Rise. Such a socially relevant show. Can’t believe CBS has cancelled it.
Because it’s real like that families can watch not just 18-39 age group. Meaning if you’re in that bracket it matters. They forget that 40- up are the ones who saved and worked hard. Soon the writers will have their streaming platform.
One of the best shows on tv.
I really enjoyed the first season of All Rise. For whatever reason the second season just didn’t draw me in anymore. Only watched a few episodes, then stopped. Too chaotic or something for me.
We loved the show. The characters were great and the show was relevant to today’s Current events.
This is one of the best shows on tv. It tackles socially relevant topics. I wonder if it’s too liberal for CBS. Hopefully another network will pick it up.
The constant emphasis on the masks wore thin for me but I still enjoyed the series.
Glad you enjoyed it but as for mask that were intelligent not to make each other or other’s sick.
