What no more Franklin and Bash!! Who ends a series like that? One of my favourite shows!! Two good looking funny guys who have their own methods of winning a case. I too was late into watching the series but I got all caught up just to be disappointed. I don’t watch much tv but I love my Franklin and Bash. Please bring it back

Noo they can’t cancel this show it is one of my favorites on television. It is funny and well written and I really enjoy it. Sadly I live in the uk and find it hard to catch up and as such I was a bit late finding out it was cancelled. Here’s to hoping another network picks it up it is brilliant! !
I really liked this program. It was fresh, funny and human. So much more than the reality shows on. I was so very disappointed in tnt. For dropping it. Wrong move on your part. How are your ratings now!!!
I loved this show. Great comedy timing and delivery.
Great show. Entertaining. I agree with all the above comments. Get rid of some
Of this other crap. Good, entertaining program like Franklin and Bash. Do not cancel You wd be making a big mistake. Really enjoy it !!
TNT is run by a bunch of IDIOTS! They rerun Castle so many times you would think that it is the only show available! But, a great show like Franklin and Bash they cancel. Pretty soon no one will be watching TNT and maybe it will realize that they screwed up. Meanwhile it would be nice if USA picked it up I can’t remember the last time I saw anything good on that channel. Or maybe it was cancelled for yet another reality show-like the world needs one more of those!
I think that this show is really awesome, it has everything that you really want in a show, especially to get away from the real life; This show has character, it’s witty, the writing is good, and the relationship with Brecken Meyers and Paul Glossner is one of which it’s brotherhood, they complement one another and the chemistry is there between both of them its like they both are in the same wavelength, they are in sync, it is like yin and yang, and for TNT to cancel after 4 season it is outrageous, they should just give it one… Read more »

It’s a great show! Hopefully another network pics it up! TNT seems to cancel their good shows!
I love that show – do not cancel.
TNT wake up. Im so sick of corporate managements crap decisions. Franklin and Bash is a superbly written show for intellectuals like me. The show is hilarious right up there with Frasier and as well written as Criminal minds. We viewers arent teenagers and there’s so little good television left. Don’t you dare dump Rissoli and Isles or Major Crimes either. You are a channel to be reckoned with but not for long if you keep cancelling amazing shows like Franklin and Bash. So don’t screw this one up. Trust me. There irreverent and unconventional way of winning cases is… Read more »
Please keep!
