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?
An absolute bummer that Better late Than Never was cancelled. My family loves this show, we have been waiting for season 3 to air . Why cancel a family, funny, show?
Please save Better Late Than Never!!!! It is great entertainment. Funny, touching, sometime shocking, but actually educational too. Make it streamable or so.ething, but don’t end it.
I am mad the Better Late has been canceled. Finally a funny and fairly clean show and NBC canceled it. Cancel some of the garbage and keep the good show.
We are saddened and shocked that this show is canceled!!! They are hilarious and the building of friendships is second to none. Each show is a roller coaster ride of emotions as you feel like you are “one of the family” with them!
My family is so disappointed. This was one of the only shows we made time to watch at it’s regularly scheduled time and then recorded it to rewatch later. It amazes me what they continue to show compared to what they cancel. Please bring them back
I don’t think nbc should cancel this show my family and I loved watching these actors laughing and having fun together
It amazes me that NBC executives really went to college, when everyone I know, during the season of Better late than never were talking about how funny and enjoyable it was to watch.
My heart is broken! It is one reality show worth watching. It was great to see the different countries their foods and customs. My friends and I traveled vicariously through these guys. Great entertainment and laugh out loud funny!
I love the show. Great cast. Entertaining. I would travel with these guys anytime.
This such a refreshing show, just pure entertainment, just like the good old days. NBC get with it …renew please….
So good to have a good laugh!!!
My hubby and I love this show! Please being it back! These guys have such great chemistry and are absolutely hilarious!
That was one of the best and funniest programs on tv please don’t cancel it.
This is a great show and some episodes had me crying I was laughing so hard! The interaction between the guys is terrific. Seeing them travel around is like watching the male version of The Golden Girls! Please bring it back (if the guys are willing! )
Please bring back ” Better Late Than Never” …love, love, love this show!!!
please bring them back, I have not laughed so hard in a long time.
