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?
Dallas was a good show! Waiting for season 4
I don’t think they gave it enough time to make their decision to cancel the show. And maybe the writing could have been a little bit better. Sometimes shows take a little bit longer to get recognized. And it also was set against shows that we’re already well known and loved.
I wish there was a 4th season hoping that Christopher wasn’t in that car that was blown up but we don’t know now because it ended . am very upset that we wont know what happen don’t like it when they end it like this, it sucks wondering what happens
Yes it does.
We just finished the 3rd season and my husband and I were also so disappointed with the ending. It just leaves you hanging. I can’t believe the viewership went down.The series are so exiting and we would watch it any time. Excellent cast and acting
You CAN’T do a 3rd season like that and leave us with SO many unanswered questions and cliffhangers! Did Christopher die in that explosion?! He better not have!!!! Who’s the father of Elana’s baby? I was hoping it was John Ross. I hated Nicolas. That would of been awesome and the ultimate irony.. he thinks he “bonded them for life” then it turns out to be someone else’s kid! Lol plus I would have LOVED to have seen what happened when Judith and John Ross teamed up together! What a pair! Also.. John Ross has a sister? Who?! JR had… Read more »
I was very disappointed that there wasn’t a fourth season or a hundred more seasons of Dallas. I’ve watched every season since it first started. I have the complete set n after watching seventeen seasons n then get hung up on the last one was very disappointing!! Someone please do something!!!
It’s such a sad shame to leave die-hard fans, especially those who have been around faithfully since its inception, in the dark and high and dry. Couldn’t there AT LEAST be a movie to tie up loose ends and provide some closure? This isn’t a show that’s been around for a mere few years… it’s been around for a very, very long time… all those who put their hearts and souls into this — from the fans to the actors to the writers to the producers to the stage crew, etc. — deserve closure… If not a Season 4, I… Read more »
I can not believe there will b no season 4 of Dallas i really would love to to find out what happened . i don’t no why it is not
I jus sat here for three days and binged watched Dallas and how culd you let it end that way and not bring it back I want to know what happens…
Bring it back!!!! It was canceled in 2014 and you STILL have an outcry to bring it back in 2022 for heaven’s sake!!!!! With all the scum shows on now and the never ending reruns that TNT airs, this would be a breath of fresh air and excitement. This late in the game you probably wouldn’t be able to pull the cast back together. Such a sad sad waste.
You can’t leave us hanging on wondering what happened in that car explosion!! Please make at least a fourth season!
I just finished watching Dallas (2012) on TubiTV all 3 seasons. It was wonderful to watch it again. I have the first Dallas seasons on DVD and have watched them all a few times. It is a shame such a wonderful show was cancelled. Make a season 4 and more. Try a different channel. I know I will be watching regardless of what channel you put it on.
I’ve been watching this for the first time and it’s great! How was this not continued for more seasons? I want to know what happened next.
They must’ve been barking mad to cancel that show.
Please bring Dallas back !!
Dallas was and forever remains a Master Piece…… JR Ewing and Family and everything that went with it…. (good and Bad) was just done SO well and so enthusiastic…… Those characters are “forever”….. I grew up watching the original series in my Native Denmark… just 5-million people and I could swear 4.9-million people watched the show EVERY Sunday night!!! The streets were empty and you could rob a bank without any trouble!!! I got SO into the remake and I actually think they did EVEN better…. Sue Ellen, Bobby and JR (RIP) and even Cliff….. AMAZING, but also the play… Read more »
I’ll second that. My favorite of all time too.
