Code Black just wrapped its third and final season, but is there a chance for more? Recently, creator Michael Seitzman spoke with Deadline about the possible future of the cancelled CBS TV show.
The medical drama unfolds at Angels Memorial Hospital in Los Angeles — the busiest, most notorious ER in the country. The cast includes Marcia Gay Harden, Luis Guzmán, Boris Kodjoe, Harry Ford, Benjamin Hollingsworth, William Allen Young, Emily Tyra, Noah Gray-Cabey, Emily Alyn Lind, Moon Bloodgood, and Rob Lowe.
In the interview, Seitzman said he’s proud of the how Code Black ended:
One of the things I always wanted to explore in the show is the nature of grief. I wanted to be honest about it, face it head on, and really explore how messy it is, how mysterious it is, and how miraculous it is when we finally see some light. The way we dealt with it for all three seasons, with our patients and our doctors, is something I’m very proud of, especially the way we delved into it with Rob Lowe’s Ethan Willis this season, in looking at his PTSD and the way his mind processed his grief and guilt when it came to his brother.”
However, the CBS series creator revealed he did have plans for a fourth season:
There’s an aspect to Ryan McGarry’s documentary, which inspired the show, which I always found interesting. When the staff was moving from the old LA County Medical Center to the new one. It shook them up in a very particular way. In a way, there were ghosts in that old building that they found they needed and those ghosts didn’t exist in the new building. It affected the way they approached their jobs and their patients and they wondered if they could still be as intimate with them in the new building. I always wanted to do that in Code Black, take our staff out of Angels Memorial and see what would happen if we moved them into a new building. Flying a plane into Angels seemed to make that an easy creative transition.”
And what are the chances of a renewal from another network? Seitzman says they’re all still hopeful:
The studio has reached out to all of the streaming services. To be honest, we haven’t heard back from them yet. We’re hopeful.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Code Black? Would you watch a fourth season?


Code black is one if the best medical dramas out there . I would love a fourth season and i hope the tv gods are listening because which ever network wants to hopefully pick it up won’t regret it
I think i would.
Code Black is a great show. Please give it life support and bring it back!
LOVE THIS SHOW!! Someone MUST pick it up for more seasons. I had a feeling when I watched the finale (not knowing it had been cancelled), with the way they wrapped everything up and no cliff-hanger that it was cancelled. This makes me sad. Great cast, great medical drama.
Please find a way to continue this realistic, emotionally gripping drama!!! My husband and I have been hooked!
I love Code Black. I have watched it since the beginning. Through actor changes. The show feels so real and makes me sad or happy, depending.
I never cry at movies but last night I kept crying-happily when adoption went thru and when both doctors declared their love for their ladies. Please keep this show going.
Thank you
This show is too good not to have another season
Please do NOT cancel code black!! Super upset with CBS!!I have watched this since the beginning of season 1. It is my absolute favorite television show. I pray another network picks this show up. Thank you code black for an amazing 3 years!! I’m praying you get your 4th season!
I’ve watched Code Black since the beginning. Please bring it back for season 4 or more.
There is still more to the stories, unanswered questions, who, what, why for all characters.
Please keep this show! My husband and I love it! Never miss a show.
I would love a fourth season and would absolutely watch it. Code Black reminded me a lot of ER and I was such a huge fan of it. I will keeep am eye out and hope that another network will pick it up. CBS is losing out.
I LOVE THIS SHOW IT IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES I WATCH IT EVERY WEEK. I AM SO TIRED OF CBS CANCELING MY FAVORITE SHOWS!!!!!!!! PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS PLEASE DON’T CANCEL CODE BLACK LET US SEE SEASON 4!!!!!!
This is my favorite show. I was so disappointed to hear it was cancelled. I DVR it so I don’t have to miss any episodes. I was a fan of ER & haven’t found anything I enjoyed as much until Code Black. I like the way today’s concerns are portrayed and the cast is stellar! Please bring it back. There are so few interesting shows on network tv these days. Be a game changer, keep Code Black!
Please don’t cancel Code Black, they continue to put out stellar shows, the cast can’t be beat. You continually move them around to different seasons and times. You cancel them, then bring them back…Really how do you expect them to do well. Put them in a good spot in the fall and watch their ratings go up.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE SHOW PLEASE DON’T ALLOW THIS SHOW TO BE CANCELLED!!!!! PLEASE PRETTY PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
