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?
I have watched Dallas since the very beginning. I have always loved the show. I was skeptical when they brought it back but I really enjoyed the new Dallas series and will miss it very much
First of all where is my “like” button for ALL these comments? Yes I would watch Dallas on another network. I didn’t even know it was cancelled until today and saw it listed with renewals/cancellations of other shows. If I hadn’t seen that I was going to go look for when it started again. so we will never know if Christopher actually died or not? How nice thanks TNT, Glad I don’t watch that network now anyways……….only tuned into to see Dallas!
Bring it Back I loved the Show Bring it Back TNT or JR will Haunt from the grave……
It’s not a medical drama. . . Lord knows there’s plenty of those. . . and it’s not a cop show, thank God!! It’s people and families and power and excitement!! Bring it BACK….
Please please please. Dont let dallas die. I have watched dallas for years ever since it started. I love it. I love the story lines of the latest series. I feel real sad that you can’t find a slot for dallas. Please do your best to bring this wonderful and very much loved programme back on our screen. All the very best .pam
I’ve been waiting on it. BRING IT BACK, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bring Dallas back! Bring it back back back. Bring it back back back. I repeat…bring it back back back! Bring it back.
Would like to see CBS or another network to pick it up. TNT. Didn’t promote well enough and then blamed it on ratings. Many told me they didn’t even know about it coming on again
I have been watching since it started. Been looking for it to come on. I can’t belive tn canceled it. I guess tn don’t care about us loyal viewers.
Why you cancel Dallas love that show watching for years
Bring it back!
I loved the new Dallas. I’ve been waiting for it to come back on. So sad!
Have been watching this show since the beginning. It should return on another network. I had wondered how the show would do without j.r. but still found myself watching every week and found the show to still be very good . Bring dallas back !!!
I cant believe you cancelled Dallas, I will no longer watch TNT now.
Dallas needs to come back. CBS was much better at showing it. The fans and viewers are there. With such a huge fan base, why program something new (and usually crappy)?
Just renew a proven winner…Dallas!
