Hallmark Channel doesn’t produce many original drama series but that doesn’t mean that those few shows are safe from being cancelled. The channel has now introduced Chesapeake Shores, a small-town drama that may remind some viewers of the Cedar Cove TV series (which was cancelled last fall, after three seasons). Will this new series succeed? Will Chesapeake Shores be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
A multi-generational family drama, Chesapeake Shores follows a high-powered career woman, divorcee and mother of twin daughters. She makes a trip from New York City to her hometown and comes face to face with her past. It may finally be time for her to mend her fences with her family and put the past to rest. At the same time, she may get a chance to revive her long-lost true love. The cast includes Meghan Ory, Jesse Metcalfe, Treat Williams, Diane Ladd, Laci J. Mailey, Emilie Ullerup, and Barbara Niven.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s chances of staying on the air. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.
1/15/17 update: Hallmark has renewed Chesapeake Shores for a second season. Details here.

What do you think? Do you like the Chesapeake Shores TV show on Hallmark? Do you think that the series should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I love this show, it’s family oriented,characters are great and it has some guessing as to what’s coming next
Love this show!!!
Love it so far
Awesome new show! I love the hallmark channel. I just hope this show is not cancelled and I hope it gets a second season with moms more seasons to come! Can’t wait to watch it every week!
This is a series I have been anticipating due to the trailers capturing my attention. Even so, I had to watch the pilot on Xfinity On Demand. I’m eager to see episode 2, but it has yet to show up there. I enjoyed the pilot very much. The characters are likeable, and the matriarch is genuine and warm-hearted. I lost interest in Cedar Cove because it became too much like a soap opera. I don’t like drama for the sake of drama, like throwing in bullies, bad guys, and another “b” word, typically used for certain types of women. I… Read more »
While I loved Cedar Cove and was disappointed it wasn’t renewed, I’m loving Chesapeake Shores. With so many cast members, there’s a ton of different plot lines you could use here. I’d like for other folks in the community (business owners, friends, etc.) to start getting involved as well. Please renew!
love this show so much already!!
I loved the show and hope it is renewed. I don’t watch many series shows (love hallmark movies) but I would definitely watch this show every time it’s on!
It should be renewed please. I don’t watch many shows like this one but I love this show!la965
Hallmark should have renewed Cedar Cove – it had much more interesting characters, a better plot line and at least some creative writing. This series (at least the Pilot) was wooden, very predictable, full of cliches and has no “grab you” factor. My wife and I often watch Hallmark movies and series together but we won’t be watching this one. I am afraid the NY Times got it right this time.
I love the show already and I think it should be renewed for season two three four five six etc.
I just finished watching the pilot episode on demand and loved it. The writers did a great job laying the foundation for this series. I’m looking forward to following this series and watching for years to come.
Why would I start watching Chesapeake Bay when I really liked Cedar Cove and it was unexpectedly cancelled without a ‘wrap up’.
The 2 hour pilot was “o.k”, Very predictable (especially the eye-rolling final scene while watching the fireworks where the rest of the cast just happens to arrive at the same time). I liked all of the characters well enough & the guy from Dallas was always one of my favs on that show. Everything will depend on how they develop the characters. The season preview looked a little uneventful but that doesnt mean anything. Hopefully everyone will grow on me like they did on Cedar Cove! Ended up loving that show but it took a little while. The amount of… Read more »
Terrific new show, the kind that we need to see more often. Serves as a nice counter to all the hate and discontent that we have to suffer through in the rest of the tv landscape – be it “News” or “Entertainment.” We can only hope that shows like this succeed!
PLEASE BRING BSCK CHESAPEAKE SHORES!!!
I would love to see more of this wonderfull serie! I could watch it again and again and again. I simply love it !
