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?
Loved this show…Guys…GO TO FOX nbc is stupid for canceling you
This was a wonderful show for my entire family. I hope another network is smart enough to pick it up for another season. What a pleasure to watch these gentlemen and their honest antics.
Entire family loved Better Late Than Never! Please bring back!!
I so wish this show was continued. It was so great to see these friends trying new experiences and building on their friendships. So much better than all the gloom and doom and violence on tv today.
Very disappointed, it was a great show! We watch very little network tv; this was one of the few.
Please bring this show back it is the funniest show on TV myself and all my friends love this show PLEASE put it back on!!!
I want the show back. One of the few shows that was truly funny without being nasty.
Loved the show and was looking forward to another season. It’s a great show especially for the older generation! Hope you reconsider!

Wish Better Late Than Never would come back. Great funny show. One of the best on the network. One of the only shows I actually looked forward to seeing!
WOW! Some Good Pure Humor and very entertaining. and you call it quits.. All they want anymore is BS TV shows. Now Ill make it a point to NOT watch any NBC bc that was the only show I really enjoyed.
SUPER SUPER sad that this was cancelled! It was the perfect mix of travel, comedy, and beauty. Our family purposely got together to enjoy this show. Bummer.
