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?
Please bring back BLTE. That show make us laugh so much. Who doesn’t like a good laugh on TV. Is hilarious. Please please bring it back. Thanks
I think it’s terrible and am so disappointed! that is the funniest show since Everybody Loves Raymond. Shame on the people that no longer have a sense of humor. I won’t continue to vent….just know I’m not at all happy. I was so looking forward to another season.
This is very sad. This series was something i totally looked forward to. It was very funny and I do believe it SHOULD be brought back. SHAME ON YOU ALL AT NBC.
I can’t believe this is cancelled. the show inspired me to travel and I just love watching the interaction between the guys. Very Funny! I’m heart broken.
Loved this show!!! Loved watching their interactions and seeing them ALL back on the screen!
My girlfriend and I love this show. I can’t believe it’s been cancelled. Watching the guys interact with their different personalities was funny. Seeing them check things off their bucket list was poignant and touching.
Jeff Dye HAS NOT tweeted this, nor has he used the word “canceled” since 2016… Only 2 tweets were sent on 6/26/18: both were posted in the eveningtime and didn’t talk about TV or NBC.
TVSF…wrong.
He has since deleted the tweet.
hope someone will pick this up. funny funny funny
We loved the show and cannot see why it was canceled!
THE SHOW WAS VERY FUNNY I THINK NBC IS STUPID TO CANCEL!
This was the best & most real reality show ever. It was also very educational, funny and heart warming. It added value to my life. Figures that something good and meaningful gets canceled.
Are you kidding? It was the best show. Kept me laughing from the beginning through the end. I think NBC is making a terrible mistake. Hopefully another channel will pick up this gem.
I agree!
I loved Better Late Than Never. It was a fun show. Please bring it back.
Me too!
NBC is crazy for canceling Better Late Than Never! I laughed til I cried. We need more shows like that. Maybe Fox will put it on. Great show! Bring it back! Don’t wait till you put in different people. It won’t be near as funny. Wake up NBC, wake up!!!!
I love better late than never!!! I laughed so hard I cried! We need a show that makes us laugh in this world. Please bring it back for another season! Love you guys!!
I agree with everyone above here it was a great show lots of laughs a few arguments what is the matter with NBC?! and they put so much junk on !real life Excellent
