canceled + renewed TV shows - TV Series Finale

   

Banshee: Cinemax TV Series Ending But Not Cancelled

by Trevor Kimball, July 30, 2015

Banshee TV show ending, no season 5It was recently revealed that Banshee will be ending with the upcoming fourth season. Some see this as a cancellation but the series is ending on its own terms, no because Cinemax cancelled it.

A source tells HitFix, “We have not been canceled, but on the creative side, we have decided to end the show, basically because we were done telling the story. As Cinemax’s highest-rated show, no one was looking to cancel us. It was a creative decision. The premise was never meant to survive a long stretch. We all made the decision at the end of season 3 that we were going to make season 4 our grand finale.”

Yesterday, Banshee co-creator Jonathan Tropper shared his perspective on Twitter:

As we planned out season 4 of Banshee in the writers room, it became increasingly clear to me that the story was reaching its natural end.

I felt pressure to come up with a 5th season, but to me there is nothing more disappointing than a show that doesn't know when it's over.

— Jonathan Tropper (@Jtropper) July 29, 2015

We have a very passionate fan base, and if we handed them a contrived season 5, they would feel it. And we would feel it.

— Jonathan Tropper (@Jtropper) July 29, 2015

So we made the gut-wrenching decision to end our run rather than risk a sub par season 5. It hurts, but I know it's the right move.

— Jonathan Tropper (@Jtropper) July 29, 2015

We are shooting the insane finale right now, and I believe it wraps up the show in an emotionally satisfying way.

— Jonathan Tropper (@Jtropper) July 29, 2015

What do you think? Will you miss watching the Banshee TV show? Do you agree with the decision to end the series?

Love this show, just started watching it for a second time and it’s just as good (only 3 episodes in). If they ever do a reboot of any type I be there for each episode. Bring it back!!

Hey, it’s now 2017 and I personally miss Banshee yet today. I’m a jaded senior theater professor, but Banshee cut through all my red tape. I think you should shoot a reunion special before everyone gets too old do their own stunts.

I never had HBO so a friend to check out od library. Loved it so much spent hours straight thru many episodes. I have now gotten to last season and cried that no more will be made. Everything about the show was so great it is hard to express its greatness.

It is sad that Cinemax choose to end this series. Especially considering how season 4 ends, expectations of what happens next is higher than ever. What would happen on with Job and Lucas Hood. Wild Sugar Bates follow? survived Kai Proctor? I know that history has ended here, but you have opened the possibilities to create an even better series with much better results than those first 4. Not disappointing the fans (like most others who have tried to make something that is half as good, but ends when there is still much more to give) I can understand that… Read more »
