The game is over. Deadline reports NBC has cancelled their new drama Game of Silence during its first season.
The series revolves around five childhood friends who have kept a dark secret for 25 years. The cast includes David Lyons, Michael Raymond-James, Larenz Tate, Bre Blair, Claire van der Boom, Deidrie Henry, Conor O’Farrell, and Demetrius Grosse.
Only six episodes into its run, Game of Silence has received steady-but-low ratings, earning an average of .81 in the 18-49 demo and 3.898 million viewers.
NBC has also cancelled the freshman medical drama Heartbeat and the Eva Longoria comedy Telenovela.
What do you think? Are you a fan of Game of Silence? Do you think it should’ve been renewed?
PLEASE do not cancel!!!! This show has great acting and real substance!! So disappointed……why cancel so quickly – at least bring back next season and resolve the unanswered questions……great show compared to many of the others that WILL be renewed!
My husband and I really enjoyed this show. Everytime a good solid show comes out, the network cancels it and leaves everyone hanging……but they continue to renew the stupid little comedies that are usually crude and only appeal to those who don’t care about any “depth” of characters, etc.PLEASE bring this show back! A show with some suspense that leaves a person not wanting to wait until next week to see what happens is rare……I just don’t get it.
I’m in.
Why would they cancel it? I know! Because it’s so good! Nbc only keeps the bad shows on.
Please do not cancel “Game Of Silence”. It is a great drama, tragic YES, but these tales are often times so true. It takes a show like this for people to “wake up” and take a stand.Try a second season please. It is more than worthy for a second season. Thank you.
Y’all didn’t give the show a freaking chance. You could have promoted it more, what did you do to help the ratings seriously. The show is great!!! You need to ask viewers about these things, you obviously really don’t know what the public likes to watch, you cancel all the good show!! Bring Game of Silence back and put more of an effort forth with support!!
so disappointed that show is being cancelled :(((( was looking forward to another session! pls reconsider
So very disappointed as I thought this was one of the better new shows. Both the writing and the acting were superb and the story line was a terrific and imaginative one.
Give the show a REAL chance NBC…. There was finally a drama with regular life people, real issues, some real substance there. Great story. Makes you realize that stuff happens and it gets slipped under a rug. I could not wait to see them lift the rug and bring all the scum to the surface. I was so looking forward to season 2. My daughter and I watched again on DVR on the weekends, just to discuss each episode. I haven’t been excited about a show in a long time. A drama is a drama….but this one would have had… Read more »
I totally agree with you. It’s been a long time since I was totally involved in a show. We recorded it so we could watch it again in case we missed anything. I hope they reconsider their decision.
I LOVE this show!!!! I’m so disappointed they cancelled it!! Great story, great acting, lots more to all of it…just annoying as hell when they give us a great show only to snatch it away once you’re invested in it.
I, for one, will be watching NBC anymore. There is finally a good thriller on to watch and they cancelled it because of ratings. Do these rating take into account the people who do not watch “in the now”. For example Hulu, Netflix, and so on. This was an amazing show and they didn’t even give it a chance. Bye NBC. No wonder you lose viewers and ratings.
Please reconsider this decision! We all want to see warden go down!!! Plesse NBC don’t let this one go!
Omg, i FINALLY have a show i absolutly love and you cancel?? Pathetic!!! I can’t believe this. Just leave us all hanging. This is the kinda crap as to why everyone should first just DVR every episode of a show they even think they may be interested in, so they can just delete it before getting hooked!!! NBC YOU SUCK THE LIFE RIGHT OUT OF ME!!
NBC once again made the wrong decision! Game of Silence is once of the best series ever produced! SMH at NBC AGAIN!
I am REALLY disappointed!!! I LOVER the storyline, the cast and crew are all exceptional.
