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?
What is going on with the networks? I am sick about this. They keep stupid shows on and cancel the good ones. No wonder everyone is turning to streaming. I’m done with CBS and ABC.
I loved this show until they started adding social injustice. I love Judge Lola but Hollywood just has to add political diversity to every thing and it is so sad to see this happening. We all have our own views whether we are right or wrong but forcing it down our throats is absolutely sickening!! Hollywood needs to stay out of politics!! I will miss “All Rise”
All Rise was one of my favorite shows. I am so sorry to hear it is ending.
I love this show. Please reconsider cancelling it.
Yes my family and I love it
Really enjoyed this show. The cast of characters was great. So much better than many of the shows on CBS.
AMEN!!!
I’m so sorry to see the show leave. It has an excellent cast and very good story lines.
I am SO disappointed. I LOVE this show, the ensemble, the people & story lines We are not ALL 18-49. CBS get over it.
Not much on Drama shows. But I really really liked ‘All Rise’.
It is hard to believe the show was unable to find viewership.
I made a point to watch every episode Monday nights.
Too Bad. It will be missed.
I am so disappointed in the cancellation of ALL RISE! The CBS network should give more consideration to an older demographic audience who like dramas NOT reality shows.
This blankety blankety blankety. I really liked this show
Really like the show, the characters. Sorry it’s cancelled. Too bad
Mask wearing turned me off on this show plus boring story lines good night good by!
I really like the show. You get interested in a show, then it’s gone.I really like Lola, the people in her office I like too. The players did well together. Sorry to see it going
Another good show cancelled by CBS. Not sure who’s making these decisions but poorly done. All Rise was very entertaining and nicely done. It was a joy to watch. It will be missed.
I agree. Great ensemble cast ABC cancelled Rebel which was another good show. I am sick of reality and game shows. ENOUGH!!
