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?
BRING THE SHOW BACK PLEASE!!!!!!
TV hasn’t been the same since they cancelled Dallas. I wish they’d bring it back. This show is miles better than the rest.
Please return Dallas back to the viewers who loved it in the 1980’s and even now. It is wonderfully made and miss it so much. Use to look forward seeing it every Monday Night TNT at 9:00 pm and it was wonderful, and can still be a legend to live on without JR Ewing, who is deceased. He is missed but that should not stop the great show!!!!
My friends all over North Carolina miss it terribly!!! PLEASE BRING IT BACK!!!!
Thank you!
Oh no! I loved this show! I hate hearing this!
Please bring Dallas back. I enjoyed the original one and also this one. I am a faithful watcher. You need to finish the story line of the family.
Big Dallas old n new fan…. please please bring back… don’t leave without finale . Dallas ( Ewings n Barnes )could go on for generations. SIGNED DALLAS 1 FAN
Yes….please bring Dallas back, but to a mainstream channel. My cable got too expensive so I cancelled it, bought a $49.00 flat wall antenna, and get all the channels I usually watch for free.ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, FOX, and 3 or 4 church channels and 1 music channel. Several of my friends did this also who were/are Dallas fans. Please bring it back.
I can not understand why the television executives don’t listen to what we are writing here about Dallas. The reality shows are so terrible–every night I try to find something good to watch, and recently it has been “The Waltons”, which is so superior to what is on now. The new Dallas was not exactly how I would have liked ,because it veered away from Texas and the oil business. No cowboy hats and boots and all of that. We don’t need drug story lines–we want DALLAS. However, I would have continued to watch it and hope that the direction… Read more »
I always watched the original Dallas and enjoyed the recent Dallas. Although it is hard for anything to live up to the original it still held my interest. Certainly left us hanging.
Bring back Dallas! The new shows are ok but the real M’coy is Dallas. If you want viewers…then bring back Dallas.
I really miss the series. Put it on another station preferably one more peoe subscribe to .
wow, just learnt that there is no more Dallas 🙁 that’s not fair. So what that viewership is down there is still plenty of viewers to watch the show, and they are not just in America, many are from overseas. I am sick and tired of hearing the same old stories why shows get cancelled and one of them is reality tv and that its cheaper to produce oh come on Dallas is a proper tv show and drama at its best! Please renewed Dallas season 3 left on a cliff hanger, really is TNT really going to leave like… Read more »
