It’s goodbye for Too Close to Home. A spokesperson for TLC has confirmed to TVSeriesFinale the Tyler Perry series has been cancelled after two seasons.
The scripted drama follows a woman who relocates from Washington DC to her Alabama hometown after a major scandal. The cast includes Danielle Savre, Brock O’Hurn, Kelly Sullivan, Brad Benedict, Brooke Anne Smith, Alpha Trivette, Trisha Rae Stahl, Robert Craighead, Annie Thrash, Curran Walters, Ashley Love-Mills, Nick Ballard, Charles Justo, Christian Ochoa, and Justin Gabriel.
The cancellation comes as a little bit of a surprise. Unlike most series, the ratings for Too Close to Home increased during its second season. The season, which wrapped in February, averaged a .31 rating in the 18-49 demo and 1.084 million viewers. For comparison, season one averaged a .19 rating in the 18-49 demo and only 713,000 viewers.
TLC has not released a public statement as of reporting.
What do you think? Have you seen Too Close to Home? Are you disappointed about the cancellation?
Sadden. Truly looked forward to season 3, had even got others on board that were not aware of show. Always take good ones off and leave boring ones on
I’m so upset looking forward to season 3. Why leave show hanging.
I have been waiting all year for this show to come back on. I cannot believe TLC would much rather have shows about ppl with eating disorders, height issues, and decision problems than to give us an actual seasonal show we look forward to seeing every year. I pray that another network picks it up. Our family and crew of friends are very disappointed in 3 states on the east coast.
I am really upset about this show being canceled. I really liked it. It was one of those shows that had me drawn in from the start. It seems like every show I really like gets canceled. Well I won’t be watching TLC anymore because that’s the only reason I was watching it.
We, want to close to home back on, what big disappointment when You cancelled.
Please don’t cancel the show “To close to home” it was a great show. Husband and I always watched it every week and we was really accounting on the next season.
I am truly disappointed was so looking forward to season 3.
I was so very upset to see that Too Close to Home has been cancelled. I very much enjoyed the show.
I don’t understand why this show is cancelled,yhis was a really good show!!and to end the way it did,total bummer
About time! This show had poor acting and directing. Like all his other shows on television.
I hate the series has been cancelled, I loved this show. I’m really disappointed in TLC. I can give a list of shows that aren’t nearly as good. Come on TLC…. if viewers are increasing, why not see what happens with another season????
So upset about this! My 33 year old daughter is too. We live in different states. We’d both watch it & then text & call to discuss it.
I am so disappointed. My 33 year old daughter and I would watch it even though we live in different states. We loved it! GUILTY PLEASURE!
Would also like to add a big BOO to TLC for cancelling Too Close to Home when you are showing very stupid shows like My 600 lb Life, Big Fat Gypsy Weddings, 90 Day Fiance, Sister Wives. Really? Please OWN, pick up Too Close to Home so Tyler Perry can start Season 3. He prob already has it done. His talent is awesome. Love him and love too Close to Home.
I am truly, utterly disappointed in the cancellation of Too close to Home which I loved, more importantly I am extremely disappointed in Tyler Perry. I mean really? Too close to Home was so much better than If loving You isWrong. I don’t understand it, was it just because it was about white trash, and people out there really live like that? I just don’t get it at all. Alot of people invested alot of hours from the very beginning only for it to be cancelled with no ending or closure. It just sucks! Tyler, what’s the deal man?
