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’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
Really great show enjoyed very much,would definitely watch more!
I am sooo disappointed, I watch and love all seasons! Please bring it back!!!!
Loved the show and want it back please
I want my Covert Affairs back! I loved that show! All this time, I was hoping they were on an extended hiatus!
I am sooo disappointed, I watch and love all seasons! Please bring it back!!!!
I have watched all 5 seasons and I must say it was fantastic. Very disappointed to read that it is being cancelled. This series is good enough to go on for many seasons.
It’s a total shame not to even let them have a finale!!!!
USA owed the viewers a Series Finale!
Very disappointed the show was cancelled. It was fantastic. Now we’re left hanging.
I hate when good shows end with no finally. Wish it could come back for at least a final season.
Apparently, the millions of people who found evening or night work or the millions of us who have always worked evenings or nights and timeshift EVERYTHING … well, I guess we just don’t matter. Sell the show to Netflix or Amazon or even Hulu…
