It’s the end of the line for the Dallas TV show — for the second time. TNT has announced that they’ve cancelled the new Dallas TV show after three seasons.
A continuation of the successful CBS series from the 1970s, 80s and 90s, Dallas follows the machinations of two generations of the dysfunctional and powerful Ewing clan. The cast includes Josh Henderson, Jesse Metcalfe, Jordana Brewster, Julie Gonzalo, Brenda Strong, Patrick Duffy, Linda Gray, Mitch Pileggi, Emma Bell, Kuno Becker, and Juan Pablo Di Pace.
Year-to-year, season three of Dallas was down by 26% in viewership and down by 38% in the 18-49 demographic. It’s one of TNT’s lowest-rated scripted series and that certainly wasn’t a good sign for its chances of a fourth season.
In a statement, TNT said, “We are extremely proud of the series, which defied expectations by standing as a worthy continuation of the Ewing saga. We want to thank everyone involved with the show, from the extraordinary cast to the impeccable production team, led by the show’s creative forces, Cynthia Cidre and Mike Robin. We especially want to thank the people of Dallas for their warm and generous hospitality during the production of the series.”
Cidre and the writers have been working on scripts and ideas for a fourth season of Dallas so hopefully she’ll share what would have happened at some point.
What do you think? Will you miss the Ewings? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a fourth season? Would you watch it on another channel?
im pissed! I want more Dallas!!! Put it back on!
Big mistake. As a follower of both the 1st Gen and 2nd Gen I will miss the Ewings and all the intrigue. Jock and Miss Ellie would also be disappointed. Shame on TNT. Someone else needs to step up and produce another rise from the ashes.
TNT is crazy to cancel such a great show. You say the ratings went down! Really?
By the way, I will watch it if it comes on another channel. Hope TNT will be sorry they cancelled it!
I love Dallas show. I am so dissapointed. Please bring back my ffavorite show, PLEASE!!!!
It makes no sense that Dallas was cancelled. TNT must be a crappy place to work. I think it’s their fault. Somebody like CBS or someone else should pick it up. At least give us some feature length movies like the ones we used to get to see. I miss Dallas and hope it returns.
I am from Belgium, in the French speaking part of the country.
I could find the the season 3 on the net and I downloaded the 15 films.
In Europe, We really like very much Dallas series since more than 30 years.
PLEASE, CONTINUE THIS FAMOUS DALLAS SERIES !!!!!!
Very dissappointed to hear that Dallas was cancelled. Really!!!!!!!!!!
Fantastic show. Great writers. Super cast. Had no idea it was cancelled. Show should continue. “Dallas” has class and cult for the state of Texas and should be a TV icon to continue for a long time.
They could have had the decency to end it the right way. I don’t know why shows leave you in a cliffhanger then get cancelled. If TNT knew the show wasn’t doing as good they should have ended each season like it could be the last.
TV is a wasteland without Dallas. That was the only class act there was. I’m not watching tv so much now. Is that good? No! We want Dallas back!
I hadn’t realized it was cancelled. We kept wondering when it was coming back. We are extremely disappointed. Most remakes never live up to the original, but Dallas came pretty darn close. We enjoyed seeing the next generation duke it out. Bring Dallas back!
So sad to hear that the show cancelled. I tried to watch Dallas each Monday night; if I couldn’t I would watch it on On Demand.
REDICULOUS to cancel such a quality cast and script! How much higher are their lowest ratings over all of the crap that manages to hang on out there?? Yes, I would absolutely follow this show to another network, perhaps one that could offer a few years of security before making any cancel decisions. UNBELIEVABLE!
REDICULOUS
My favorite show of all time. Had to make sure never missed it. All of the actors were good and it did feel like the original Dallas. Who wants to watch reality tv or the voice or househunters(boring)
