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?
we watched this all the time and we love this dallas series and yes I will watch it on any channel.
Bring back the Ewings!! Dallas is better than half the series they have on TV now. Move it to another network….AMC, FX ? They seem to have long running shows. I would rather watch Dallas than those terrible reality shows that make men look like fools and the women act like trash. It seems some networks will put anything on TV except good shows!!!! There are other age groups out here besides teenagers.
Gee, what a shame that Dallas got cancelled. That was really a stupid thing to do for TNT’s programming staff. What do they have, shiffer brains?
Enjoyed the show and all of the characters along with their interactions! Very sad that it was cancelled!!!
Hopefully another network will pick up Dallas. It’s just too good to die. Way too good. What a crime taking it off tv. We want Dallas back!!!
Yes, of course I would watch it on another channel. Every time I find a great show that I like, it gets cancelled. Somebody, please bring it back!!!!!
I really did like the show and would definitely watch it on another channel.
Sad you hear, I think it was not given a fair chance after the passing of Larry Hagman. I found it to be exciting as the original. Please find a new network and bring it back
I loved the new Dallas. I watched it as a teen back in the day. I am so disappointed that it will not continue. I thought the John Ross character was perfectly cast. He had charismatic charm that you couldn’t resist even though you despised him at times. All of the characters were great and the great writing of intertwined stories made for a great show.
Very disappointed that it was cancelled and yes I would watch it if it was on another channel.
Hope it returns at some point.
Please bring Dallas back. Bring back JR as a zombee, I don’t care…just bring it back.
And not this 6 episodes and wait 3 months crap. Put the show on tv like a real show with a full season. Oh, am I asking too much? Your money to lose. And the fans lose too. Wake up TV people.
Yes, put it on another channel!! Another entertaining show gone. Somebody please pick it up on another network!
I cannot believe you are cancelling it! I have been waiting for it to return. At least put closure to it with a 2 hour movie. The problem was it was not well publicized and not a good time slot. We taped it every week.. I hope another channel needs to pick it up. However dramatic shows seem to be canceled for brainless reality shows.
Yes I would watch it on another channel, and they should have had it on a main channel to begin with. I’m a huge devoted Dallas fan, and I’m very upset it’s been cancelled!!
Why cancel a great show I grew up watching Dallas ! !!!! I was so excited when TNT brought Dallas back !!!!!! I’m heartbroken at this time!!!! We need Dallas BACK ASAP!!!! I’m fed up with these dumb reality shows ! !!!
