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?
Well guess I will quit waiting to see what happened to Chris.i was really starting to like that show
The question posed was “are you disappointed and would you watch the series on another channel?” Dang right I would! I am very upset that this remake of the 1970’s Classic is not going to continue! I have been waiting for months for it to come back on and just learned that it won’t be back!! I hope the reruns will start soon so we fans can enjoy the seasons that do exists. The cast was excellent, believable and captivating! Each one of them….this is indeed sad news for Dallas fans!
I am very, very upset about this. Dallas is a great show! I was looking forward to season 4.
Dallas was great. Someone should renew this show. It wasn’t a ratings stinker like most of the rest of the shows. It’s just that some punky person in TNT pulled the plug. They wanted a younger audience. Really? Be careful what you ask for…you just might get it.
You know you want to renew Dallas…How could you not? Have you fired the idiot responsible? You should.
Why would you cancel Dallas? How about having your marketing dept do their jobs and promote the show!!! It had a great cast!!
Dallas, the old and the new series were my favourite tv show! I am extremely disappointed and let down it has been cancelled !!!!!!!
what a shame all the good shows are gone tnt exs you suck I think tnt needs new mangement
Are you mad ? Have you lost your mind ? In the middle of a great storyline …no season four? Well, you are only TNT. Aaah , but wait, you still run reuns of Supernatural, now that’s shows great television vision..ugh
The networks are cancel crazy. There’s no continuity anymore. I watch the history channel a lot because they, at least, have repeating shows. Repeating shows…what a concept…
Makes you wonder if all the cable channels destroyed that. Just look at the 4 networks during prime time…Wheel of Fortune anyone? Or how about another Seinfeld rerun?
Please bring back Dallas…one of the truly great shows…miss it big time.
I WILL MISS, ANDI WOULD WATCH ON ANOTHER NETWORK
I have loved Dallas from the beginning and was so looking forward to season 4 of this new Dallas. Closure is something that the fans deserve.
Really disappointed that this show has been cancelled-I looked forward to seeing it every week. The actors and writers did an awesome job!! I vote to get the show back on-it beats a lot of other programming. I miss Dallas.
I am pissed!! Every time a good show comes out, they make a season or two and then they cancel it….. I wish they would make the producers of TV show at LEAST end the series and NOT leave us hanging… Especially when we take the time to see if we enjoy the shows they make! At least be kind enough to end a show with a satisfying end. I am to the point of NOT watching any shows until they are through producing them to see if they at least ended the show where I would be happy. I… Read more »
