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 love this show and don’t wanna see it end !
Loved this show, so did my husband. Would have preferred an ending rather than it just being dropped
They always cancel the best shows. Now Im down to one show on this network worth watching. What a disappointment.
Keep it going Please.
Love Covert Affairs. Need season 6
I can’t believe they canceled Covert Affairs. PLEASE KEEP THE SHOW
I have been a fan of Covert Affairs since the day it aired on USA Network. I was so upset when I find out the show got cancelled for no reason. They left it hanging with Annie and Auggie taking about her feelings for McQuaid . Than she opens her eyes and that was it. Please bring it back for a final season and ended it the right way. For all the fans who been watching it for the past 5 years. I Still watch USA put with out Covert Affairs it is not the some. Please bring it back!!!!!!
Couldn’t agree more. I’ve been a fan since the first episode. Let this series end the right way for fans, with a final season to wrap up the story lines. USA, treat your viewers with respect.
Still wating for USA to come to their senses and BRING BACK COVERT AFFAIRS! If they don’t, I won’t waste my time watching anything else on that network ever again! Networks need to realize that “LOYALITY” works both ways!
Please renew Covert Affairs! It’s a great show with a solid cast, and Annie Walker is every woman’s wannabe! The plots are great, the locations awesome… please, USA, don’t cancel Covert Affairs!!! It will be sorely missed by way too many people. Also, USA is beginning to lose its standing as a channel to watch. I’m sick about all the cancellations over the years, your spotty returns (one never knows if or when their favorite show will ever be back — or maybe not!) It’s almost easier to never bother with you to begin with. One amazing show, In Plain… Read more »
Too bad the show cancelled without REALLY WRAPPING UP LOOSE ENDS!!! I can’t believe Annie & Auggie would just end it with a hug and goodbye…I felt they were meant to be together. Don’t a lot of couples say “I married my best friend” which they were. The show got away from all it’s original characters the past couple of seasons. Seemed like they always had Annie working with the “new cast” instead of the old faithful crew that started the series. I didn’t want the series to end but if it had to I was hoping for an ending… Read more »
Covert Affairs, Wow!! all I can say whoever makes these decision to cancel a top rated show needs a serious look at the rest of the garbage they put on tv. I can’t believe the network would cancel such an awesome show. Hopefully, another smarter network will pick this show up.
I JUST READ COVERT AFFAIRS IS NOT CANCELED, BE BACK IN APRIL. I SURE HOPE SO. PLEASE USA DON’T CANCEL GOOD SHOWS LIKE CBS. MAYBE ANOTHER CHANNEL WILL PICK UP WHITE COLLAR IF USA DOESN’T SEE THE ERROR OF THEIR WAYS. CBS IS REALLY MESSING UP!!!!! PLEASE NOT YOU TOO (USA) .
Please bring Covert Affairs back. We need Annie Walker!!! I’ve been watching this show since it started. Now there’s nothing to look forward. There are other shows that more nonsense that needs to be cancelled. Not this one, this is the only action show on tv!
Keep the show! We loved it!
Covert Affairs was one of the few show I always watched.
What is on TV these days does not compare the entertainment
of Covert Affairs. It gave to me adventure, travel (I watched
everything – even the monkeys on the fence, style, great actors
giving 200 % every single week. I am so sad! I am sure many
others feel the same way and I appreciate an opportunity to
say this.
I can’t believe they canceled one of the best shows on TV. Been watching since day one, and I’m so disappointed in the way they did this. They could’ve at least done one last season to close out the show, instead of abruptly canceling it, which is a big FU to all its fans. Maybe if they’d been consistent in putting the show instead of stopping and starting it without warning, viewership wouldn’t have dropped. Boycotting USA network now…you’ve got nothing that interests me anymore. If you cared about your viewers you would’ve finished Annie’s story. I’m furious.
NO! NO! I just cant believe that they would cancel the best PI Show I ever watched, Shame! Shame! they always take away all the best shows, from TV. I wanted to see how far Anne and Mr.McQuaid would have gone. I am sure I am not the only one that was interested to see how far up the betrayal and cover ups went in the CIA. PLEASE PLEASE! PLEASE! reconsider to bring this show back 🙁 this is very upsetting to take the show off the air!!!!!!
