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?
Why is it when you get a good show, you cancel it?!!! Bring it back PLEASE!
Sorry, misspelled “Survivor”
Agree! Agree! Agree with others below! This show was so hilarious and the guys did have great chemistry! We still have “Surviver” and “Better Late Than Never” didn’t make it? My husband and I think they should go to Israel. Such a great show! Maybe another network can pick it up! We will watch the ones we have saved on our DVR!
Can we purchase on DVD?
I really enjoyed the show. There was such great chemistry between the guys. It was just a fun show to watch. Given their age, it’s too bad NBC couldn’t do one more season, especially since there is so much garbage on the air.
This was the best show I have seen in many years. Can’t believed it was canceled.
So funny and entertaining. They need to rethink and bring it back.
This really sucks! This show was amazing and I looked forward to it everytime. I grew up watching some of these guys on tv and continue to watch them today in tv having all four together doing this funny a** show and George always falling asleep he didn’t care where he was sitting or laying, lmao! Please bring this show back, I was wondering what the hold up was
Very dissapointed by this. there is so much other uninteresting and really unfunny stuff on tv now, so much violence etc. This show truly made me laugh out loud.
Loved watching these guys – grew up watching them preform at what they did best but to see them like this did our hearts good. Hated that they where cancelled. Was wondering if they would release the shows on DVD, so we can watch over and over – that would be amazing . These shows are family oriented and a lot of fun, please try.
Thank you,Donna
Loved Better Late than Never! I had not laughed so much in a long time!! The guys provided so much entertainment, education, and history in all their adventures! Please bring them back!!
This show brought so much laughter to our home ans So sad to see no season 3. Big mistake of there part.
Oh No I was so hoping for a 3rd season. I adore these guy’s!!! Praying another network will pick it up!!!!
Yes I’m sad. Great show, good, good clean fun! It’s a shame to cancel a show when there is a lot of crap on tv!
Funniest thing on TV in years….bring it back
This was my favourite show in recent years. I wish it would come back.
Wish some network would pick up Better Late Than Never! We enjoyed some great belly laughs. Loved all the stars! Please bring BLTN back!!
