What do you think? Have any of your favorite shows been cancelled? Which ones are you sorry to see end?
I’m sorry to see Criminal Minds is ending. But since some of the original cast left it is hard to except the new characters. Feel some of the writing isn’t as good as original scripts. But I will still miss it.
Also sad that Vikings is ending also. I wish they would do spin off with the characters Bourne and Flukie. It was one of mine and my husbands favorite just like Game of Thrones.
Even tho i love The 100…i can understand how its coming to an end …running out of things to do with it i guess
And homicide hunter toooo…noooo!
Hi Tara,
I loved “Homicide Hunter”. When Comcast eliminated the “ID” channel from our basic package this was the show I missed the most. I know they knew this was the channel I watched the most so that is the one they eliminated in a strategy to force me to upgrade to a more expensive package. Unfortunately I can’t afford a more expensive package but even if I could I refuse to upgrade just on principle.
Terri
I just fell in love with Anne with and E… I love 13 reasons why …waahhh sooo sad!
I do not care which shows come and go, as long as Ray Donovan is renewed for at least season eight. Next to “Banshee, “Ray Donovan is one of the best written, best directed, best acted, best choreographed, and best Edited shows in modern television history. That Ray Donovan and Banshee are practically shut out of all the major awards, especially the Emmys, Is a statement more about the impotence, ignorance, and lack of foresight of people deciding who gets what little statuette.Ray Donovan must return.
Why is Reef Break being canceled? Every time a good action show that has a little bit of everything in it comes on, it is canceled almost immediately. Never given much of a chance. I love Poppy Montgomery. All that is left on forever is comedy/sitcoms. Way too many of them. Leave the action shows alone, please.
Very disappointed that Bluff City Law is cancelled!!!
I regret seeing that the decision has been made to cancel “Bluff City.” Although I was an avid “Bull” watcher, I switched the channel in order to see “Bluff City.” It highlighted Memphis, but also many topics people are talking about every day. It may have encouraged people to think about our justice system in a different way as well as enticing a young person to check out a career in criminal justice as a way to change the world. It is sad to see it come to an end without giving it a proper chance. Anything going against “Bull”… Read more »
Is Court cam coming back this season on A & E ?
Very sad to see high quality shows with excellent storytelling, like Anne, and Poldark, come to an end.
Is Gone coming back?
What has happened to bar rescue on Paramount?
It’s being renewed on another channel..
I don’t get it.
This is the heading of the article : “61 Ending or Cancelled TV Shows for the 2019-20 Season”
This a further explanation of the content : “Here’s a list of TV shows that aired (or are expected to air) during the 2019-20 season (roughly September 2019 through August 2020) but won’t be back for the 2020-21 season.”
And then when you read the list, you see there are several shows that will be back season 2020-21!!!!
Which shows are you referring to?
Goliath
13 Reasons why
Lucifer
None of those shows have premiere dates yet. If a show premieres after August, it will be moved to the 2020-21 list.
Exactly, so you look at the list. **** Goliath has been cancelled. Check : Oh it has not been cancelled!!
The upcoming fourth season is Goliath’s last.
Goliath was excellent 1st season, gone downhill from there, unfortunately.
Will there be another season of Greenleaf?
The TV execs all think they know good tv . Lol
I’ve watched good shows get canceled way to early and replaced by reality based CRAP .
All because they didn’t want to pay the actors .
Oh, I COMPLETELY agree. It’s getting increasingly harder and harder to find quality television anymore. Syfy, TNT and USA seem to be doing away scripted shows altogether. They want more reality sh*t. The Kardashians are the WORST. Who wants to watch pampered, entitled brats sit around their house doing nothing? The Bachelor and The Bachelorette are bantha fodder. How can people tell one reality show from the other?
