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?
Game of silence was a good show with a good storyline that one should have been given normal 22 episode season. The other problem with your program ratings is the stupid reality shows that you put them after. Most of us that watch good dramas and thriller shows can’t stand sitting through those dumb shows so by the time our show comes on we found something else or went to bed. Many times I use the NBC app to watch my shows the next day rather than sit through the other crap.
I hope NBC rethinks this decision , game of silence was one of the few shows that I followed !
Game of silence is the best show on television. I am sick of getting hooked and NBC yanking.
I love Game of Silence and very upset it is being canceled. But thing on TV yet.
You have to be kidding me. You can’t cancel this show. I’m hooked. This is a great show. I agree if you air it earlier you’ll have better ratings. I’m begging you please don’t cancel this show.
My letter about Game of Silence….I am appalled that you (NBC) are canceling Game of Silence. Don’t you guys get it, with all the reality shows and various (other) shows on Satellite and Cable (unfortunately) you might not receive the viewers you would expect, the networks aren’t the only channels out there you must realize this!!!???!!! You have tons more competition than you had in the years gone by….But, you can’t blame it on the fact that people don’t like Game of Silence and there just has got to be another way of rating these shows. People have to use… Read more »
Please don’t cancel GAME OF SILENCE for good, we were left hanging at the end as to why Marina was killed and who did it. It was a very very good show it grabs your attention right from the start, and doesn’t let go. What’s up with the stations lately, just because a show may get poor ratings, doesn’t mean you have to get rid of it, give it another chance. It just may surprise you
I think the game of silence was an amazing show that always kept you guessing. I can’t see how it can possibly be over after one season. There are so many things left to find out. The show reminds me of a classic in sleepers and I truly was depressed to hear it was canceled. Bring it back!!!!
Why would you guys leave game of silence at a cliff hanger? Just when it was really starting to get interesting and you guys go and cancel the serious. Game of silence has become one of my favorite shows. I’m hoping CBS, ABC, USA, or somebody else picks up game of silence. It’s a really good show. You guys did a really good job with this serious. Can we get it to come back for another season? I will be waiting and reading the views to see if it comes back for another season, or to see if someone else… Read more »
You renew Shades of Blue which was garbage
Yet you cancel a program that had you on the edge of your seat every show. CBS will get more of my viewing time.Must be a brain drain at NBC.
Cancelling Game of Silence was a dumb move. This show would have built a huge audience. You didn’t give it time. The netwirk executives who cancelled it should be fired.
Please don’t cancel game of silence. Its a very good show. Id like to see season 2. And heartbeat also.
Be sure to cancel a really good show like “Game of Silence” — probably to make room for another inane reality show. Who makes these stupid decisions? Not the viewers — that’s for sure.
This is my favorite show!!!!!!! I cannot believe NBC canceled after the first season, I am so disappointed. Please renew!!!!!!!!
Game of Silence is a great program! My family is so upset that it is being canceled! Makes us not want to watch NBC any longer! It is unbelievable that you would cancel this and leave some of the other junk on! Not cool NBC, not cool! Do you even care about your viewers? I think we are DONE with NBC!
