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?
so disappointing. Awesome show. We at least need a movie that ties up the series.
Please, please, please don’t let this wonderful show go.
Been watching since the very first show! Please don’t cancel this for good! At least, let us see what happens to Annie and give us fans closure!
SOMEONE ELSE PICK UP THIS SERIES. !!!
ITS A WELL PUT TOGETHER EXITING STORY.
I CANNOT FIND ONE REASON WHY THIS SHOULD BE CANCELLED.
VERY BIG MISTAKE TO CANCEL.
Amazon or Netflix—-PLEASE PICK UP Covert Affairs!!!! I am a loyal Amazon Prime member as well as a Netflix member for soooooooo many years.
This is a page right out of Fox’s playbook. I hope they sue USA for trademark infringement.
Cut out the crappy shows and bring back Covert Afffairs and White Collar.
No just bring back Covert Affairs please with cherry on top.
I stopped watching it halfway through the last season. It got so boring I quit watching. I could care less it got canceled.
I stopped watching it in the middle of the last season. It got so boring I couldn’t care less what happened. Don’t care that it got canceled.
USA network is grossly DISLOYAL TO VIEWERS!!! They’ve done it again. I won’t bother watching a network that screws with it’s viewers like USA does. GOODBYE
Disgusted that USA didn’t give we loyal fans at least some closure!! I watched since the start and am LIVID that they aren’t even giving the show a well-deserved send off!! Not sure I care to invest my time in USA shows in the future!!
UA show some class & at least have a finally. Yeah maybe time to find a new network!!!
I’m getting so tired of networks like USA who get loyal fans watching their series only to just leave them hanging with no care for their loyalty. They just decided to cancel Cover Affairs not giving a dame about those who supported the series for five years. Did you ever think of having a final two hour special where you can close out the series with an ending for the followers? Have Oggie and Annie finlly sitting on a beach enjoying the rest of their lives. Some series do but not ones from the USA Network. Really not interested in… Read more »
I too am getting tired of USA Network cancelling shows. Covert Affairs and White Collar were my top two favorite shows. I have no idea why they cancelled them. The writing in Covert Affairs took it too far away from the CIA main action in one season where the ratings dipped, but it was still a good show. I am pretty much not giving USA Network another chance after this. No closure stinks. So much for appreciating loyal fans. I am going back to anything not related to this network including their parent network. I will miss such good acting… Read more »
Please keep Covert Affairs going!!!!
I’m so sad that this show cancelled. Wishing the creators, producers change their mind!
