What do you think? Are you a fan of the Face Off TV series? Is it ending at the right time, or do you think Syfy should have renewed it for season 14? Sound off, in the comments.
I will truly miss this show.i enjoyed watching how much work it takes to do those makeups.
I’ve been a fan from the beginning. I think it’s a terrible shame that the show won’t be returning. It’s such a wonderful and entertaining showcase for some very unique and amazing talent.
Please don’t cancel Face Off! So inspiring! Great artists who get along , who help each other and who are great people. We all could use more of this!
I can’t believe Face off is ending! I don’t have an artsy bone in my body but this show has made me appreciate this craft and has actually been educating on top of being entertaining, one of few reality shows I will watch. I will admit I’m not a fan of the elimination set up this season or ever have been of Neville but who cares it’s an awesome show. Judges don’t seem to sugarcoat their views much and like how straightforward the criticism is, the show doesn’t focus on contestants drama which is a huge bonus for me they… Read more »
I’ve been fighting Stage IV cancer for the past 2 years and am unable to throw pots anymore. Face Off has been my only link to my craft.I can’t imagine not having FaceOff to look forward to. I’ve watched all the available seasons, 3 already times on HULU. I love everything about it. It gives me hope that I will be back at my wheel someday. Please don’t take this away from us.
FaceOff has been my favorite show for a long time. I am devastated they choose a time of uncertainty in our country to end what so many of us need to escape. PLEASE keep it going or you will make artists and fans feel they have less importance than they already do. We need art. Art is life.
Please, don’t take away our smiles.
I am so disappointed that face off is ending. It is one of my favorite shows. Please bring it back
I so look forward to watching Face Off. As an artist myself I get a real kick out of seeing the process of making all of the amazing make ups that are shown. And of course , the final reveal! 13 seasons IS alot to be proud of, but why get rid of such a terrific show when there’s so much crap on tv these days, unless it’s just not a money-maker for the network anymore.
Face Off is one of The Best Reality Shows EVER.
It’s a shame SyFy is replacing treasure with trash in the name of the almighty dollar. Not much left on SyFy that’s worth watching once Face Off is gone.
I can only hope that either the petition (change.org) garners enough names to convince SyFy to save it – or equally unlikely, Amazon, Netflix, Hulu, or another Network buys the franchise rights.
I totally agree with all that you so articulately stated. I hope they will appreciate their fans enough to listen.
LOVE FACE OFF! Look forward to it every season!! Really disappointed they are going to cancel it
It’s one of my favorite TV shows…I hope they decide not to cancel it.
I was so disappointed to hear that this is to be the final season. My favorite night was tuesday as I couldn’t wait to see what these incredible artists would create. Each week I was amazed and excited to see who would come out on top. I loved the judges, a class act of people. I hope that this show will return and I will not tune in to Syfy at this point. Someone has to realize this is a huge mistake…
I am so saddened that Face Off has been cancelled. I can only hope that another station will pick it up. There’s no other show like this , and it was so much fun to see what each of the contestants could produce in the short amount of time they were given. My Tuesday nights will not be my favorite TV night anymore, and I will no longer watch the SYFY Channel.
I love Face Off and am saddened to hear it is being cancelled. It is enjoyable to watch and a quality reality competition show. It is great to see a competition show that does not involve singing. Face Off has shown me how difficult creature creations are to develop and make. Please do not cancel the series!
I love this show and I really wish they’d renew it!
Love Face Off. I can’t believe it’s being cancelled
