Quite honestly, it looks doubtful at this point but, if a show is popular enough, anything is possible. At one time, Everwood was on the CW’s fall schedule (as evidenced by this page from an earlier version of the CW’s webpage).
Though there are rumors running rampant on the Internet that the cast is in negotiations for the series to return as a mid-season replacement, it doesn’t look like this is true. The WB is promoting the two-hour “Foreverwood” episode as the series finale, the Everwood sets have been torn down and a source at the CW has said that there are no negotiations going on for a fifth season of the Treat Williams family drama.
Still, if enough people watch the final episode on June 5, 2006 then the fledgling CW network will have little choice but to stand up and take notice. The new network is beginning its first season in the fall and needs all the help it can get in establishing a strong schedule of television. If Everwood looks like a surefire way to attract droves of viewers and advertisers, I’m guessing they’ll renew the show.
How many people need to watch? Well, over seven million households watched the 7th Heaven finale and that show was quickly resurrected (and probably replaced Everwood on the schedule). Only 2.5 million households usually watch Everwood but, if the “Foreverwood” series finale episode can miraculously match or exceed 7th Heaven’s numbers, I’d say the chances are really strong that the CW would reexamine its fall schedule.
What can you do? If you love the show, call everyone you know and ask them to watch the series finale and stay tuned!
I feel that the CW is makeing a mistake by cancelling Everwood the numbers for 7th Heaven were inflated by what I beleive was afeeling of nestalga. I’ll admit I watch the final epasode for the simple reason that I watched the first few seasons of 7th Heaven until cast members started leaveing and remaining charicters started stagnateing and then only watched the last episode to see were things finaly ended up and frankly was unempressed. I understand them holding on to One Tree Hill it hits that much sought after young adult male/female demegraphic that advertisers want so badly.… Read more »
Please, please, please bring Everwood back. I have loved that show ever since the first episode. Seventh Heaven was ok but then it got plain silly. You had every character doing almost the same things in every episode at the last, like that dumb one on the cell phone and then the Oreo cookies. I know you were promoting an item but GEEZ..enough was enough..couldn’t you brain storm some new ideas at least. Now Everwood, that was a terrific show. The personalities were perfect, the situations were life like and it was liked by all ages. I refused to anwser… Read more »
Everwood has been our favorite show on tv right from the very first episode. My husband and I looked forward to Monday night tv just because it was on. We love the characters and the casting. This is a great family show and it would be a grave mistake to cancel it.

SAVE EVERWOOD!! 😉
WOW, losing Everwood feels like losing something really close to my heart. I never thought I would feel this way about a TV show. All the teachers I know (myself included) watch this show. Now what am I going to watch? CSI? Desparate Housewives? Those shows have no depth or soul at all.
I, too cannot believe that Everwood is not returning for a 5th season! What we need on television is more good family shows like Everwood that deal with everyday life and possible solutions without having to see a psychiatrist!!! What we don’t need is another game show or talk show. Isn’t there anything we, the viewers can do or say to get Everwood back on or at least a few special shows throughout the season? I have watched Everwood since the first episode. It was such a breath of fresh air from all those other TV shows. Mourning the loss… Read more »
Everwood was a really compelling show and tackled many issues – I wasn’t really hip on the sleeping around episodes but I love Amy, Ephraim, and the entire cast. I was looking forward to the Hannah storyline as well as everyone else’s – especially the one between Treat and Nina. Very sad loss condisering that I’m not a TV watcher but I had three shows that I kept up with on the WB – not sure I’ll keep watching just to have them cancelled – i.e. 7th Heaven, Everwood … what will happen with Related?
Please I beg you to renew Everwood. I feel like I have lost a good friend. I am so disappointed that 7th Heaven gets renewed cause of the finale ratings and CW immediatly decides it is best to just remove Everwood and not that dumb show One Tree Hill. Everood deserves more and is a way better show to watch. Everyone on 7th is all grown up and the story lines are old and boring and there is nothing more to work with. Move 7th to the grave. Giving it one year is not gonna make a difference. YOu want… Read more »
This has been a very sad day for me. My favorite show was cancelled. Everwood. I almost had a fatal heart attack in April when it was taken down, and regained everything when it returned in march. But only to be kept until June? So sad. That show is so great…The relationships are exactly what happens these days. It gets you through the rough times, makes you laugh. Such a wonderful show cast off, when instead we watch modeling, or reality tv with people being made rich for simply nothing but being themselves. I simply don’t understand why tv is… Read more »
please bring back everwood. it was the only show on t.v. that was worth watching. i am 66 years old and looked forward to monday night to watch everwood. if my grandchildren were visiting, they could watch it with me. please don’t take it off the air. it was the best show on t.v.
Please renew Everwood. Just because the ratings are so called “down”, does not mean that the show is not the greatest out there. I for one had been a 7th Heaven watcher (in the past), but to tell you the truth, that show being resurected is a waste. It is old and the actors are boring. Everwood is full of life and is truly just beginning. The actors are AWESOME!! The story lines ARE AWESOME. Why would anyone put that show on the back burner, especially the writers, producers, directors, etc. Anyone watching that show would agree with me. Please… Read more »
What’s the problem with this WB crew? How can you keep one tree hill with high school kids (supposedly)when it is apparent they should have been in college 2 years ago and leave Everwood with true to life circumstances go? I have always supported peoples preferences but don’t understand what the WB wants to gain. Certainly it’s not respect. You may think you have won but people are going to start to take notice of where your heads are. What a shame.
RENEW EVERWOOD! Save some wholesome t.v. for the family…RENEW EVERWOOD!
PLEASE RENEW EVERWOOD….TV is A WASTELAND….without it!!! I’m 60 and have loved it since DAY one . My children , 35 and 37 ALSO Love it and watch it with their 10 and 12 year olds. Its FOR FAMILY. Its OOETCI> ITS REAL>
We’re not ready to leave Everwood!!!
Or Ephraim………Or his Dad
The top people making the decsion to cut Everwood are just stupid. You get a great well written show gteat actors and situations and you let it go. Why? So we can watch tyra banks yell and belittle young females! How stupid is that, the chick has her own talk show and wants to start a clothing line. Money may talk but you WILL Lose alot with the letting go of Everwood. There are plenty of spots for it. Last year you let go of Summerland. You know there is money to be had is mid season shows. Not everyone… Read more »
