It looks like the vacation is over. Recently, Jeff Dye confirmed that NBC has cancelled Better Late Than Never after two seasons.
The reality show follows Henry Winkler, William Shatner, Terry Bradshaw, and George Foreman as they travel the world with both help and misdirection from tech-savvy comedian Jeff Dye.
On Twitter, Dye revealed NBC has decided not to renew Better Late Than Never. The series wrapped its second season in February with an average rating of .91 in the 18-49 demo and 4.819 million viewers. That’s a nearly 40% drop in ratings from season one.

What do you think? Have you seen Better Late Than Never? Are you sad it’s been cancelled?
Just catching the reruns. On demand.
Never saw it originally. It’s hilarious.
Fun to see..I would have named it
“We Ain’t Dead Yet”, however. I’ll be wanting more after I’m done
binge-ing. Sad nbc didn’t appreciate the vitality off older and wiser population.
Horrible choice by NBC!
GREAT cast, funny concept, and an always enjoyable script!!
Why must some young wannnabes wet behind the ears, screw things up for everyone else?
Bring back Better Late Than Never NOW!
Cancel the millennials making the decisions!!
The show was quite enjoyable and entertaining for most of my household, with some laughs and disgust from watching all the extremities that were taken throughout some of both seasons!
I wished there was more to come from this group of guys while traveling the world and discovering other hidden gems of traveling.
I really enjoyed this series. Wish you would bring it back.Iconic celebrities off on new adventures taking us with them. It was fun.
My wife and I really enjoyed Better Late Than Never shows. Laughed out loud funny, and were hoping for a 3rd one. These guys, all of them, were a real hoot, including Jeff! Please make another!
