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?
NBC, what exactly do you want to show? This was a thoroughly enjoyable show that probably didn’t cost you that much. Poor call. If the stars were still willing, we certainly were.
BRING IT BACK!
BRING IT BACK!
What a shame Better Late Than Never was cancelled. It was a fun show. No car chases. No explosions. No killings. Just fun. That’s what’s lacking in most television these days. Fun. I think pretty highly of NBC. But I think you guys dropped the ball. I hope you’ll reconsider. In the meantime, yes, some other network should pick this show up.
This show needs to be back on! Why do they cancel all the good shows!!! And all they do anymore is keep having the same kind of crappy shows on over and over. NBC you need to get out of the Office and see what normal people on the street want!!
We really loved this show!! Rewatched it many times. I hope someone picks it up. It was one of the funniest shows I’ve seen in a long time
Well that stinks! This was the funniest show on TV! These guy were great together. Enjoyed them talking about themselves. Hope another network picks them up.
sad they didn’t tenew this show. Ww l9ved it in this household. Someone else, please pick it up
Netflix? Hulu?
PLEASE BRING THIS BACK – It truly was an funny, entertaining and educational show all at the same time – !!!!
This is the funniest show on tv, laughed till I cried. Why do you always take off the good shows and leave the garbage. Please don’t cancel bring it back
Yes bring it back. I have never laughed so hard.
I LOVE THIS SHOW! How could you cancel something that funny! I don’t understand! It’s certainly better than about half of what you currently have as far as comedy, so why would you want to continue to drive your audience away with stupid dramas? We need laughter now more than ever! Bring it back!!
This show is sooooo much better than the so called comedy shows that are on today! Fox needs to pick it up like they did with Last Man Standing, would be a great night of good comedy.uaphl
This is just like today’s AMERICA, 1 of the best shows on tv & they cancel it, I really hope another network picks it up. Sad to see where this country is headed
We absolutely loved the show Better Late than Never. It was the most hilarious show ever. Please bring it back.
We really loved Better Late Than Never! I thought it was funny and so different than the usual reality shows that I never watch.
