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?
I am disappointed to hear the show has been cancelled. I was hooked from the beginning and the ending of last season was awesome. Please bring Dallas back!!!
I would defiantly watch it on any station excellent cast and writing. I hope to see Dallas return soon
Sad to see the show go. I was going through my DVR list just yesterday wondering if the show was coming back. I would’ve definitely watched Season 4. Bring it back!!
I am extremely saddened to learn “Dallas” has been cancelled. I watched the original series and felt the return was extremely well written, the choice of new actors was excellent & marveled at how well the update just picked up where the original show left off. I was so looking forward to season 4! How disappointed I am in the network’s decision!!!
Grear tv show. Put it on another nettwork!
Soooooo disappointing!! I was looking forward to seeing where the next generation of Ewing’s & Barne’s were going to take us! Ending with a cliffhanger? Seriously? So not fair to the fans! Bring back Dallas……ratings may have dropped but you still had loyal fans…….and those fans deserve their show!!! Hopefully someone picks it up and gives the fans what they really want! Dallas!!!
I watched this show as a child with my Parents and this new Series was even better. I would watch it on any network. Bring it back!
This is a big mistake!! Season 3 had a big
Cliffhanger. Couldn’t wait to see who John Ross sister is! So much unanswered! Hope Netflix gets the word and pick this up!!
I loved the original series and the new series. Big mistake to cancel it.
I loved the new Dallas!!!
I myself think the network should not have cancelled. The new Dallas. I really liked the show. I also watched the original. Dallas. I think the new Dallas was better than. The original Dallas. I really believe the network needs to bring the show back. I miss all the characters. And the plot. I hope the network brings it back. I would like to see who is the father of the baby . also justice needs to be done for Christopher.
I feel that cancelling Dallas was a HUGH mistake, I feel if you looked really closely you would have seen that the show had a huge audience.
Really enjoyed the seasons and… Major cliff-hanger on Season 3, why!?!??? at least end the show without cliffhanger. Netflix should pick it up!!
I am very disappointed to hear that the show is not continuing! I was a fan of the original, and was “hooked” on the new one. Would love to see it continue and will watch on another channel.
This was a great program. Good actors, compelling story, updated themes. This is really disappointing! Put it on another network!
