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 loved the new Dallas series! It should definitely come back for another season and then some. All the characters were great and it was never boring. It was a BIG mistake to cancel it.
I have been a DALLAS fan since 1978. Love the new show…Just finished watching it for the 2nd time on Netflix. John Ross was just starting to own his character. Would love to see more…Would you consider a mini-series to tie up the loose ends? Fans need closure!
I LOVED BOTH THE OLD DALLAS AND THE NEW DALLAS AND WOULD WATCH TELEVISION AGAIN , IF IT CAME BACK ON AND I KNEW IT ! I HAVEN’T WATCHED TELEVISION SINCE THEY STOP IT !
it needs 3 come back 4 the new generation as well as 4 us older
Should not have been cancelled. I loved the show
Thank God for Netflix! I am currently watching the 3rd season of the new Dallas, and it is just as good the second time around. TNT’s entire staff needs a good rump whoopin’ for taking this show off the air. Bring it back for a 4th season people!!!!
I miss the Ewings! I loved watching the reruns of the original Dallas growing up and LOVED the new Dallas (so glad it’s on Netflix). I’ve also tried the J.R. Ewing bourbon whiskey and loved it but now I’m unable to find it 🙁 The show left on a cliff hanger of not knowing who John Ross’s sister was, who he’d end up with (Emma??), what happened to Christopher and who’s baby was Elena carrying! Please bring this TV show back or if not please make a movie of it so we can have some closure…
Please bring it back. I really miss it. And I’d love to see them add James again, and Shelly. And bring in Lucas (Bobby and Jenna’s son) and JR and Callie’s son. SO much to do with the whole group. PLEASE BRING IT BACK. Nothing else like it.
My husband was as disappointed about Dallas being cancelled as anyone could be. We both looked forward to it every week and when you’re retired we don’t have a lot to look forward to, kidding. Yes, we would watch it if it were brought back, on any network.
DALLAS!! What a totally awesome show. I had been waiting for season 4 and I thought let me check the web & see when it was coming out. I can’t believe they would cancel such a highly entertaining show. I thought the show was wonderfully scripted with just the perfect cast of characters. Yes, it was so sad that JR died, and totally unexpected, but the was he was written out of the show was a tribute to the true character of the man everyone loved to hate. Please reconsider and renew “DALLAS” . I hate when a show is… Read more »
I loved The Tv-Show Dallas. I grew up with it and really enjoyed the new remake. Please make Season 4 or more. We love it in Sweden. And many more countrys in Europe love the Show. Bring it back and make people happy again.
Greetings from Sweden
I loved the show and would watch it on any other network that would air it!
My wife and I really enjoyed the new season show, we have the old show the complete series and we bough a small piece of the property. Please start season 4.
I’ll REALLY miss Dallas (sniff!)
really miss DALLAS please bring back the show
Please bring the series back Like others have said TNT has only looked at the younger group 18-48 will some of them would know the old Dallas but the over 49 and old would really remember it and enjoy the new series. I know I enjoyed it at just not fair the cancel the series with the ending that it was. I cliff hanger
I just finished watching Dallas on Netflex and it has me wanting more. TNT was wrong for not renewing for Season 4. I would watch it on another channel for sure or make a Netflex special like Fuller House or on Hulu or something of that nature, just a suggestion for those who would like to get answers to unanswered questions.
