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?
Done with TNT. They will keep the crap they have now but cancel a classic great show.
Horrible. I love it almost as much as the original. My husband and I really looked forward to the show…………………Please think it over…………….
Well it’s about time, I stopped watching when that drunk Sue Ellen started up again, it was sickening, so good riddance it will not be missed. Loved the original from the start till the end. This one was not even close.
Response to vp44.. The reason this incarnation is not as good as the original is 35 years ago these actors were as good as they were going to get. Today it just looks like a last chance for a paycheck. There is a reason people retire.
Said it ain’t so, I love the new Dallas it had so much potential .I’am disappointed ,please someone else pick this show up. I’am tired of looking at junk tv. We need grown folks drama on tv not reality trash.
I can’t believe they canceled Dallas.I really loved the show.Hopefully TNT will reconsider.
Very disappointing!! A lot of us watched it on DVR so I think more watched then you think. Yes, I’m hopeful for a 4th season on another channel! You didn’t really listen to your viewers!!
I cannot believe that TNT is going to cancel Dallas. The writers on this show are the best in the business. All of the shows are cliffhangers. TNT will lose me as a viewer if they continue to cancel Dallas…..BOO TNT
Loved Dallas and wish it had a conclusion
find another channel, please don’t cancel
A big part of why your rating are down you wait to long in between seasons people forget you advertise a week or two in advance is not enough to contact everyone.
I am very upset and not happy!
I am very upset. I love the show. It has everything. Violence, comedy, sex…..I hate I will not find out whose baby Alana is carrying. Please!!! Give it one more season!!
I love Dallas! This makes me so sad.
That is way it goes everytime they put a good show on they get you hooked then pull the plug. The ratings are not to the truth. It is just a handful of people that say they will give their opinions. And that does not cover everyone that watches. No one asked me nor my family if we watched it are not. I shall not be watching TNT anymore unless you reinstate the series! And my family as well!
I cannot believe they cancelled Dallas! That was the best show on TV!
Dallas was the best show on tv!!!!! Why cancel? I loved it in the 80’s and its even better now!!!!!!! Dont cancel!!!
