The cast of White Collar got a chance to wrap up their series with a final short season but Covert Affairs won’t get that chance. USA Network has cancelled the series after five seasons, leaving fans with plenty of questions and no season six.
On Covert Affairs, operatives Annie Walker (Piper Perabo) and Auggie Anderson (Chris Gorham) work together in the CIA’s Domestic Protection Division (DPD). The show’s cast also includes Kari Matchett, Peter Gallagher, Hill Harper, and Nicholas Bishop.
The move to abruptly cancel the adventure spy series comes as a bit of a surprise but the decision reportedly all came down to money. USA owns the show but it’s not a cheap show to produce with rising talent fees and expensive location filming around the world.
In addition, the fifth season of Covert Affairs saw a big drop in the ratings — falling nearly 48% in the 18-49 demographic when compared to season four. Total viewership dropped 32%, to 1.54 million.
The final episode aired December 18th. Hopefully the producers will share what Annie’s decisions about her personal and professional life would have been.
What do you think? Do you like the Covert Affairs TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a sixth season instead?

I loved this show, perhaps it could be made elsewhere, some where cheaper. I think at least finish the season with where it was left at. I think all good shows tend to get cut early, perhaps make for the Australian viewers!!
I love it. If they decided to cancel at least give the viewers closure. $$$ ? Why is it always the bottom line?
We loved the show and are very disappointed there has not been a Season 6!
yes cover affairs need to keep going…
USA must continue through season six. Wish we could see Annie’s, Arthur’s and
Joan’s choices. Too much to see with new season… Hope USA decide to continue the show
I think that it should continue through season 6. Rally the troops and clean things up. It’s not like their going to lose money, they just won’t make as much!
I’m binge watching – just started Season 5 – disappointed it’s not continuing but I can’t turn back now – I have to finish it knowing it’s going to end badly 🙁
Wish they didn’t cancel season 6. Great series to binge watch. Hated the way they left it on the cliffhanger, wish we could’ve known Annie’s choice! Please bring it back!
i don’t think it should have been cancelled
think practically they should renew the dam program instead of leaving it on a cliffhanger like a lot of other programs
it’s on of the best spy programs i’ve watched
I am Very disappointed – Love the show and season 5 was a comeback year in my estimation – Great Binge Series
