To no surprise, The CW has pulled the plug on their low-rated reality series Breaking Pointe. The show aired for two seasons over the last two summers.
CW president Mark Pedowitz noted the cancellation at the network’s portion of the Television Critics Association winter press tour today. He said, “I wish it did better… Docusoaps are very hard for broadcasters to get going versus cable.”
Breaking Pointe follows the inner workings of the a ballet company in Salt Lake City, Ballet West.
What do you think? Are you sorry to hear that Breaking Pointe won’t be returning? Did you like the series?
NOOOOOO!!!! I was so excited for season three!!! I cant believe there won’t be one! I loved the show and all its characters and you can’t leave us hanging like this!!
I loved this show! As a former ballerina, it was a wonderful journey back to the yeas when I danced. And as a viewer, it was pure entertainment! I am so sad this show is off the air. I was really looking forward to season 3. What happened with the cast? I need to know
NNOOOOO!!! I was just checking to see when it would start up again. I am so disappointed to read this sad news. How will we find out what happens to all of them? Webcast? Blog? SOMETHING?!
Loved this show!! So disappointed there will be no season 3!
Aww I was just checking to see when this show starts up again and was super disappointed to see it was cancelled :(. I only watch this and Reign. Everything else is trash or mindless.
Oh man, I love this show and was looking forward to Season 3.
I am so disappointed!!! I love this show
I LOVED this show!!!! I’m not a dancer, but I loved watching the dancers and how they worked dancing into their lives. I happened upon it by accident and couldn’t get enough of it. The only reason it didn’t get renewed was because no one knew about it. WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT FOR THOSE OF US WHO WERE AVID FANS. CW PLEASE RECONSIDER!!!!!!
SO DIAPPOINTED. WAS A GREAT SHOW, SUPERB DANCING FOR THOSE OF US WHO CAN ONLY WISH WE HAD BEEN ABLE TO DANCE!! AT LEAST BALLET SARASOTA BENEFITED FROM THE SHOW AND TROUPE…..WILL BE WATCHING FOR THEM AND WISHING THE CW HADN’T BEEN SO STUPID.
Loved this show! Watched every episode! I was really interested in the relationships the cast had both in & out of the studio. Never knew ballet was so demanding both mentally & physically!
Very disappointed this was cancelled. I never missed an episode. So much better than the reality show trash that is renewed season after season.
Please reconsider.
I really enjoyed this show. I watched both seasons and very sad it has been cancelled.
I am very disappointed to hear it has been cancelled. As a ballerina myself, I appreciated the viewpoint of what it is truly like to live life as a ballerina. Breaking Pointe truly showed what ballet is. I will miss the show.
Very disappointed. I loved the show. It was very informative and really a world we know little of, its difficulties, beauty, and about the dancers. It is very hard to get to know dancers because they are rarely interviews. Will miss it terribly.
This is the only show that I watch during summer. I want it back. Hopefully another channel will pick it up.
