I was very disappointed that ABC cancelled B&S without so much as word to the viewers. I kept waiting for it to return and it never did. I ended up searching around and finally found out that the show was cancelled, the same thing happened with 666 Park Avenue. That needing was absolutely outrageous . Again no notice, just cancelled. And you wonder why folks are not watching network television?
I have been looking for this show! I just thought It was making more episodes. This is the ONLY show I look forward to on Sunday night!! How can you start showing the season and then just drop it. If you cancel a show, give it an ending like you did with Despirite Housewives!
I can’t believe that ABC is both of my favorite shows on their network. I love Brothers and Sisters. I felt like I was a Walker! Please don’t cancel this and Off the Map too! Both of these dramas are fantastic!!!!!
Is there any way to convince ABC to revive B&S. I’m desperate.
Brothers and Sisters was an awesome show, great actors and great story line. It is sad that this great entertainment has been taken away. Shame on ABC.
This is my all-time favorite show! I couldn’t wait for Sunday evenings to roll around so I could watch Brothers & Sisters. Trying to find out the date it returns this fall but not having luck so far.
P.S. My husband knew he could only talk to me during the commercials or wait until the show was over … lol.
Hi, Im writing from the U.K and would like to say Brothers and Sisters is the best show ever. Every episode makes me laugh and cry, its filled with every emotion. The acting is outstanding and I have to watch every episode, can’t miss a thing. I’ve got series 1,2 & 3 on DVD, am waiting for series 4 to be released over here in October and will get series 5 as soon as its released. I sincerely hope it’s not cancelled but in this day and age where, unfortunately, money and viewing figures mean everything it wouldn’t surprise me… Read more »
