Lifetime has cancelled Army Wives, their long-running drama, after seven seasons. While there won’t be an eighth season, the cable channel has plans for a two-hour retrospective special with castmembers which will air in early 2014.
Army Wives follows the lives of a diverse group of women living with their spouses and families on an active Army post. Created by Katherine Fugate, the series has starred Catherine Bell, Kim Delaney, Sally Pressman, Wendy Davis, Brigid Brannagh, Kelli Williams, Brian McNamara, Sterling K. Brown, Brooke Shields, Ashanti, Torrey DeVitto, Elle McLemore, Jesse McCartney, Terry Serpico, Drew Fuller, Alyssa Diaz, J.J. Soria, Joshua Henry and Burgess Jenkins.
Rob Sharenow, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Lifetime, said, “There is no denying how special Army Wives has been to both Lifetime and the television landscape. By taking on a very relevant and timely issue, it has brilliantly captured the challenges our military families endure and the bravery they and their loved ones display while serving our country.”
What do you think? Are you sorry that there won’t be an eighth season of Army Wives? Do you think the special should wrap up the storylines in some way?
I really enjoyed army housewives. It sort of didn’t end. Was very disappointed with no season 8. What is the special that was supposed for 2014.
I just finished watching the 7/ seasons of army wives I really wish would continue. So many of us women really enjoyed Army Wives.
LETANYA EDWARDS We should start an online petition just to see if that will help our cause I was also so disappointed because I have a brother in the arm and this show also helped me as well . I wish the producers would reconsider as well
I can’t believe they cancelled this show. I absolutely love it . So my question is are their only 7 seasons I thought there were 12 if anyone can answer my question I’d love a reply

This show has helped me with some questions and fears that you may have as a spouse, mother, farther, sister, brother!! I hope the producers would consider bringing this show back to help families like my self have hope at the end of the day and closer.

To say i liked army wives is an understatement at the least i love it! I just finished season 7 and am sad to find out there will not be a season 8 ☹️ . This show really gave me an i look on how the Army families deal with different situations and what kind of happens in the army world. I’ve grown to love each of the characters and was looking soooooo forward to the next season. I hope there is more to come in the future, this is a really good series .

I’m sorry Army Wives cancelled. It was interesting and gave me a look into military life drama. Different from the medical shows and cop shows that monopolize the screen. You should rethink this and have talented writers think up some more chapters.
They were the best!!! I still miss them
Sad that this show had no season 8 or a finale. So many loose ends. 🙁
Loved this program. Watched every wèek.
Army Wives is one of the best TV series that I have watched and I have watched A Lot of series shows. I am so upset that there will not be a Season 8. Please Lifetime, please change your minds and at least finish this wonderful series show off with a banging Season 8 to finish off everything that was left open in Season 7, Please.
