Starz has decided to cancel Boss after two seasons on the air. The Kelsey Grammer series won’t be returning for a third season but viewers may still get some resolution.
Boss revolves around Chicago Mayor Tom Kane (Grammer), a powerful man who struggles to stay on top while secretly battling a debilitating brain disease. Others in the cast include Karen Aldridge, Connie Nielsen, Kathleen Robertson, Martin Donovan, Jeff Hephner, and Hannah Ware.
The cable channel renewed the show for a second season a month before the series even premiered. Had they waited, they might have cancelled it instead. The ratings for the first season were underwhelming and the cast and crew knew that season two would have to do better for the show to survive.
It didn’t. The second season averaged 360,000 viewers and a 0.1 rating in the demo. The cancellation certainly doesn’t come as a surprise.
While there won’t be a third season of Boss, Lionsgate TV and Starz are having discussions about wrapping up the story with a two-hour movie.
What do you think? Are you sorry that Boss has been cancelled by Starz? Do you think they’ll really make a movie?
I thought Kelsey Grammer was amazing and I am sorry the show was cancelled. Though, if one wants to watch political corruption, one only has to look at the news…
There absolutely has to be a season 3, or at the least a two hour finale.
I think this was as exciting as when I started watching Sapranos , I think they should have at least gave it a better ending, just left season 2 in a loop with much wonder,
It was a very good program
Ending was terrible regardless to it being season two
They should have went to season three and carefully ended it with at least a better ending then just leaving everyone with the WFT attitude, I thought it was the next big thing next to cable TV
Best ever
Please bring back Boss Season 3.One of the Best TV series ever made.
Please make the movie I’m sure i suffer from some form of autism lol the suspense is overwhelming
I loves this show…was riveting
So sorry there isn’t a third series, we came across it by accident but very disappointed at the ending.
Annoying really
Loved the characters and story line.
The theme tune summed it up completely
why do these people start a tv series but never finish them.same as watching only have a movie. they keep dumb crap shows but cansel good ones.
if they can not finish a tv series they should not even start them.
Yes wrap up to the storyline.
Don’t leave it hanging like!
Absolutely one of the best TV shows ever! I still miss the show.
I loved the show
Yes I would love it. More advertising needed I accidentally found the show and then was hooked so many channels to choose from This was different and interestingSorry I did not watch
Needs to finish story
Any Good word on a season wrap up?
