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 really enjoyed the new Dallas, as I did the original. The new Dallas engaged the audience with contemporary story lines and a fabulous cast (new and old). The audience has been left hanging! And, yes, I would follow it to another channel. I’d really like to see the show return!
I don’t see how Dallas can have low ratings. I think the new episodes of Dallas were more intense than the originals on CBS. Bring back Dallas if not TNT, maybe another station. I am so disappointed in that show being cancelled, and i think TNT is making a huge mistake. Bring Dallas back!
I vote for bringing Dallas back. This over anything TNT could offer. So far they have slid downhill because of it. The network that brings Dallas back will reap the rewards. C’mon other networks…let’s get going. Let’s get Dallas back on.
That is true the best show on TNT that’s why I get mad when they take off the best show’s
I’m so disappointed that Dallas has been canceled! Please put it on another channel. ?.I absolutely love this show and look forward to viewing it. All the characters and plots are awesome! A wonderful drama series!
I am so disappointed that Dallas isn’t airing! Loved the characters and the intense drama. I’m so tired of all these reality shows taking over the networks prime time spots! Bring DALLAS back! I would watch it on another channel as well.
I’ve been checking the guide each week to see when Dallas was coming back in. I’m so disappointed that it was canceled and would definitely watch it if it aired on a different channel.
I can’t believe Dallas was cancelled. This show was almost as good as the original! It appealed to all ages because it pulled in the older Dallas watchers and the newer age adults.
What a crock that it was cancelled considering the #*(&% that is on other stations.
Bring it back, please!!!
I’ve been watching Dallas since the 80’s and the new generation, you could at least have a two hour series finale to wrap things up. It’s not right to just end a series after you been watching since it the show started. What kind of mess is that? Makes you not want to watch anything fearing it will be cancel when you least expect it.
If they brought back Dallas, that would be wonderful. The saga should continue. There are tons of fans out there. Bring it back.
That’s right it is the best show and they better bring it back or I won’t have cable TV anymore if it does not come back on
Loved old an New Dallas can’t believe that it’s already been removed. What about those like my family who sat on the edge of their seat waiting for the new season. Wish TV would take large polls before removing peoplesay favorite shows.
As a fan I’m disappointed I was really looking forward to the new season I would watch it in another channel
Bring back Dallas!!!! I would watch it on another channel.
This sucks i love dallas just got on the website to see when it was coming back on and read this horrible news im so sad please put it back on!!!!!
Was looking for Dallas the other evening and couldn’t find it. Was trying to prepare for the new season and discovered this exciting show has been cancelled. Marketing, publicity, and a stable time slot would have worked wonders. The networks won’t be happy to all are reality shows and I am relegated to back to the radio.
Dallas gone? What the… Better put it back on pronto. John Ross?? Please fix this…I know you can.
Bring back Dallas to TV…even if on a different channel!
Whatttt! I would watch it in another channel’! 🙁
