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?
My Mother and I were so anticipating the return of “Dallas”. I had no idea that it was cancelled. So disappointing to hear that news. We loved the show and we would have followed it all the way. Now what crap do we watch???
Dallas gone? I have to protest. Not fair. You took away the best show on TV.
It should come back. It’s too good of a show to be cancelled. Please bring it back.
I was a fan of the old shows and was never interrested in the new ones until two weeks ago. We started watching and couldn’t stop. In two weeks we watched all three seisons, just couldn’t stop. We will be glad if another station will take over.
Disappointed
I loved this show. I couldn’t wait for Season 4. I can’t believe it’s cancelled. I hope it is picked up by another station and soon. Ugh!
I am furious that the TV show Dallas has been cancelled. I have been a fan ever since it first aired on CBS in 1978. Every similar type of show since then has been a very pale imitation. What are these TV executives thinking? Maybe a different time slot and a better network to showcase the program would be in order. I would watch Dallas on any other network!!! Please find a way to bring this wonderful show back on air. Must be the same bean counters and hatchet men that cancelled my 2 favorite ABC soaps that cancelled Dallas.… Read more »
love the show yes I would watch on another network!!!!!!!
I shall miss this show. It was fun and a real departure from reality. Isn’t that what TV etc is suppose to be about anyway???
So sad that it is not coming back. Was a huge fan of the original Dallas and enjoyed watching the redo.
Have been looking for this show to resume. Guess not! I am disappointed. What else can they put on TNT that is not a repeat or something strange. Too bad.
I wish Dallas wasn’t cancelled. My favorite show. Watched every episode. Would watch on any channel. Please renew Dallas.
liked that show I watched it in the80,90`s liked it then too would like to see it back on
I didn’t know they canceled Dallas. It was one of my favorite shows. I am so disappointed. I loved watching it with my grandmother when i was a child and i loved watching the new generation of Ewings. :”(
Wow! Are you kidding me???? There is nothing but garbage on tv now and finally a show worth watching! Let me guess its going to be replaced with more garbage! Me and my daughter loved this show and it was great telling her all the history of the characters since the first Dalls was long before her time. Wow!!! unbelievable!!!!!! Idiots!
I would watch it on whatever channel it was on. It was that good! I do miss it…..and definitely miss seeing JR, but he would want the show to go on! Outstanding story line! Please bring it back! Thanks! H
Loved the show. Now pissed off that its not coming back on. Very good show.
