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?
Sorry to hear NBC is canceling Game of Silence. My husband and I enjoyed the series. It is a good story and we were curious to see what would happen the next week. Hope you won’t cancel. The cliffhanger was good, we need to see what happens next. Don’t let the fans down. We will be waiting.
Please do not cancel this series I do not watch much tv but I just loved this series. I DVR every show watched it all at one time. Please bring it back.
This show was amazing!! Great actors and a phenomenal story line that I haven’t seen done before. This is beyond frustrating. NBC has cancelled so many amazing shows. One of them being Revolution that went 4 seasons then BAM Cancelled!! How can you leave your viewers hanging like that. NETFLIX PLEASE SAVE OUR SHOW!!! #GameOfSilenceNeedsASeason2. NBC this is why your ratings suck so bad and why people are choosing Netflix & Hulu instead of your network shows. Thanks for wasting 10hrs of my life for nothing. #YouSuck!!!!!!!!!
I am sooooo sick of these stupid networks cancelling amazing shows!! My husband and and both daughters lives this show 48 19 and 15 years old quite a demographic. There is no point in watching new shows because they just don’t give them enough time to succeed. Please some smart cable network pick this show up it was fantastic. Just not going to watch
New network shows anymore.
I’m very disappointed. Leaving season 1 end of cliffhanger. If NBC don’t want to show season 2. Sell it to Hulu . Aleast they make money. Don’t matter about ratings there. You start a good show. Just leave everybody hanging. I think that’s totally unfair. To television viewers and the cast.
This is a great show! Why in the world is it being canceled. It has a fascinating plot, great actors, and suspense! I just don’t understand!
Game of Silence is excellent–I’ve watched every episode–don’t cancel!!!
Game of Silence was and is one of best shows on NBC! Hopefully Netflix will take a look at this awesome show and give it a chance. After all one day network TV will be history and Netflix and others like them will take control!!!! Way to go NBC..once again you’ve thrown away a great show! Netflix please pick up GAME OF SILENCE!
Makes you afraid to watch new shows. They get you hooked and then cancel. Getting really tired of this happening!!
What????? So we are just left hanging after that awesome finale!! No happy at all…….:(
EXCELLENT ACTING EXCELLENT SHOW VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HEARING OF CANCELLATION ESPECIALLY WITH SUCH A TERRIBLE END
First Revolution and now Game of Silence. Why does NBC have to take away every show I REALY like? Well, you better come up with another show with David Lyons in it. Or better yet, just bring Revolution back. Yes I’m still not over that.
I really liked Revolution too. It never really came to an end. I’m suprised they left it like that.
WHY do they cancel GREAT shows? A LOT of people (like nyself) record the show then watch on the weekend so those people who watch might not be counted (if longer than 3 days after). Game of Silence had an excellent storyline and really good actors. IF showe must be cancelled at least let the people write some kind of “ending $ so we don’t feel left abandoned with NO closure!!!!
Rrrrr…..NBC just doesn’t cut it against cable networks.
I love Game of Silence! It’s one of my favorite shows ever! I’m devastated to hear it is cancelled! Very upset:(
This is one series that should be renewed. Very typical of the life long effects sexual abuse has on young people. People have to realize what predators do to young people.
