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?
Sooooo sad it is ending….it was great the first time around….and it was great the second time around…..please bring it back!
Dallas was a really well written and entertaining show. The character development and story plots were captivating. It was, in my opinion, one of the best shows on prime time. Please bring the show back. It would make JR proud.
I was very disappointed Dallas was cancelled. The show needs to come back.Loved the show.
P. S. Yes, I would watch it on another channel!
DALLAS may have gone of the beam with some of the raunchy sex in Season 3; however, It deserves Season 4 because of fine acting and the storyline needs to come to closure before it is cancelled, for J. R.’s sake…
I wish someone would bring back Dallas. I wouldn’t mind terribly if it were a spin off style version. Anything…there are so many Dallas fans that want it back. Please bring it back to TV.
I was so looking forward to the Dallas show coming back, I used to watch it with our daughter when she was younger, you won,t find teenagers watching it, but the long time fans are still here waiting and waiting, we know good tv when we see it.
I am shocked that Dallas might not come back, what a Cliffhanger, absolutely best
Programme on T.V. Everyone I know watches it and loves it????
Very disappointed to learn of the cancellation. Had been looking forward to the new season.
Dallas is a great show. Always keeps us on our toes. Action and drama at every corner. Bring it back 🙂
It’s one of my favorite shows!! I question the ratings system….I think it’s bogus. I just want to throw up when I hear the words ratings…or polls…..Whose ratings… where & when…. & at what time ?….ba….ba…..I didn’t get to watch most of season 3 because mainly mess-ups from dish anywhere. I am just finally watching it!! There are many reasons many people may not be able to watch a series at the time slot somebody choose to put it in…It doesn’t mean we don’t find a way to catch up on it somewhere, sometime. No wonder people just quit watching… Read more »
Dallas is the best show on TV. Why did you cancel it? Big mistake there.
Please return Dallas. Many, many fans love this show.
I was looking to see when dallas started again. Imagine my surprise when I FOUND OUT IT WAS CANCELLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY ? It was my favorite show, The new cast was just a compelling as the old. Please bring it back..
I just loved this new series. I started watching the first season because it had some of the original cast from the 70’s but grew to like the new generation of Ewings. I wish it would be picked up by another channel.
Please bring back Dallas and don’t worry about the ending. As far as I’m concerned, a cliff hanger every season is good. But ending? No, just keep broadcasting Dallas for as long as the Ewings are alive, available or otherwise. Start with bringing it back asap!
