Will you miss Bless This Mess? The cast and creators of the ABC TV show have posted their reactions to the series’ cancellation.
The sitcom series follows young newlyweds Mike and Rio Levine-Young (Dax Shepard and Lake Bell) who give up their lives in New York City to run a farm in Nebraska that Mike’s great-aunt left to him. The cast also includes Ed Begley Jr., Pam Grier, JT Neal, David Koechner, and Madison Curry.
As reported earlier, ABC has cancelled Bless This Mess after two seasons. Creators Liz Meriwether and Lake Bell posted their goodbyes to the series on social media alongside farewell messages from cast members Dax Shepard and JT Neal:
I got pooped on by 7 different species of animals, got stabbed by Jim O’Hare while dressed like a buck, smushed my face in @daxshepard buttcheeks while he ran around sweating, got catapulted into a freezing pond with non-potable water & I’d do it all again. ❤️ @lizmeriwether pic.twitter.com/QR5urfjt5h

What do you think? Did you watch Bless This Mess? Would you have watched a third season?
This was a fun show and not happy about the cancellation
This and single parents!? So typical for ABC! Was finally watching shows in this station again back to CBS shows for me.
Please do not cancel this show. I was so looking forward to seeing next season. This show made me laugh so hard and always made me happy.
Absolutely loved this show! Finally a show with quality humor. So disappointed they will not be back. Is it too much to hope another network picks them up??
Please do not cancel bless this mess
Plz do not cancel bless this mess
I, really, liked both shows. But, hey, lets keep, the bachelor, and other crappy shows.
Loved this light-hearted show! What a shame! Wish another network, Netflix, or Hulu would pick it up!
Loved Bless this Mess and Single Parents. I think both shows could work elsewhere, CBS or Fox actually, and do better. Neither seem like ABC shows, I’ve always felt that way.
OMG. This was my favorite show! Please let another network pick it up! When I see some of the other shows they kept I was left scratching my head in confusion.
By canceling the program it only shows your inability to make good choices Admit that you eere wrong and bring it back!
The series got more interesting with Rio pregnant. Want to Pam and Ed back together.
Also want to see his friend/enemy go through a huge catharsis. Enjoy all the characters.
There are really no good comedies any more and this makes it worse they’ll probably put on a remake of a game show or fake reality shame on them
Really liked this show as we did all the others canceled by ABC. Should have given it another season.
Bless this Mess was lucky to have two seasons….Need to get back to Parenthood, love Dax Shepard on that!
