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?
Wow, I’m very surprised they are cancelling this show. I have been a fan and avid watcher as well as my husband. Remember NBC executives, Not everyone wants to be verbal on social networks so I doubt your viewing figures are correct. The show has substance.
This is a show that needs to be renewed for more season, “Diana Stockman” has to be brought down for justice and the kid in Jail, the fake religious guy, the drunk mother… I would say 2 more season can be made.
I love this show it’s one of the best drama series on tv. I’m so tired of all the reality shows and I thought NBC had a great new show in Game of Silence.
I cannot believe this series was cancelled. I watch a lot of tv and this was one of my favourite shows. Much better than many of the new shows that were renewed. I am very disappointed with NBC and I truly hope another network picks it up.
No Way!!! This is by far one of the best shows on right now. So different than anything else. I was always waiting for the next episode. Can’t believe it’s cancelled. What will it be replaced with? Another police or medical “drama”?
Love Game of Silence — great show. Hopefully another network will pick this up.
Disappointed to hear that Game of Silence was canceled. I watched every episode and wanted to know how it was going to end. I was hoping that the show would reveal that somehow the good would eventually overcome evil.
Once again a great show representing true life is shot down by those forced to be politically correct.
Awesome show and different from the regular/police/medical series
Unbelievable!! How in the world can NBC cancel this show? What a great story and an even better cast. Loved all the characters! This show deserves another season. Whoever pulled the plug on this one made a mistake. Please bring this one back….still a lot of the story to tell. So upset!!!
Why???? Please do not cancel this show! Game of Silence is a great show. I was looking up to see when the next season would start and saw that it was canceled. Please reconsider and keep this show on for another season.
This was a great series. Kept you interested and engaged; Actors were true to their character. This show being cut when other mediocre shows continue on NBC. Do not understand how the people at the top make their decisions, but in this case they got it wrong.
GAME OF SILENCE CANCELLED? I can’t believe it! NBC, of all the series you have given a “second chance”, GAME OF SILENCE DEFINITELY should! 30 Rock,The Office, Parks & Recreation, The Simpsons, South Park, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Vampire Diaries, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, & Seinfeld ALL were given close to cancellation, but GIVEN 2ND CHANCE, WENT ON TO BECOME HITS. NBC GIVE GAME OF SILENCE ANOTHER SHOT!!!
Game of silence cancelled? This was by for the only show I record and nevery miss… I also felt as though it could help other young youth to rethink before they act on criminal behavior… I’m devastated really hope they reconsider!
There are few shows on TV that I watch and actually can say I enjoy. Game of Silence was a show I actually enjoyed and looked forward to watching each week. Please reconsider NBC or someone else please renew for next season.
