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?
This show was fantastic! I lived watching it every Thursday night. This was a top notch show that was so entertaining. Very disappointed to hear that it has been cancelled.
Game Of Silence is the most interesting show on TV today. It draws emotions from your audience like compassion for the four boys behind bars early in life. Also, it’s so wonderful to observe the great casting and acting in the character development by the actors. Please give it a second season.
Very disappointed Game of Silence is being canceled. Fresh and new storyline. I was instantly hooked.
Love this show…. We need a season 2!
So sorry this won’t be back. Good story line, great cast and fine acting. Oh, wait, these kind of shows are often canceled.
I couldn’t have said it better. These are always the first on the chopping.block.
Can’t believe Game of Silence and Heartbeat are being cancelled! Really like both shows for different reasons.
Love this show!!! Seriously disappointed to hear it wasn’t renewed

Why??? Wat should be cancelled is still on the air!!!! This is disgusting
You are so right!
Please don’t ever EVER cancel the two Law & Order shows, and Chicago pd and Chicago fire!!!!
I really liked the show. Great acting and great storyline.
i thought this was a very good show with fantastic story line and great acting. age 18-49 is wrong age group for determing future of tv Series. that age group doesnt usually want to commit themselves to a tv series. they are an age group more into short term commitments because they have busier lives outside of tv. tv series are more suited to age group 35-60, people that spend more time at home, where tv matters
BRAVO! Very well said r wyatt! My sentiments exactly.

I am so upset and devastated that GAME OF SILENCE is cancelled. I am confused as to what makes a good show these days to stay on air because GOS has extremely well played actors, good looking actors, good story line, suspenseful and meaningful. Hey, but lets keep the silly shows on air. I am so bummed as I don’t watch TV because the shows are silly. I thought GOS was the best show yet since Breaking Bad ended. I am so addicted to this show and it is the highlight of my week. I am totally not happy about… Read more »
Some of the shows that were renewed should be cancelled. Game of Silence is fresh and different. NBC doesn’t give shows a chance. It was a really good show with great actors. Why not try a different time day or time slot? The writers were great as well. This is very upsetting! Most of the shows you have on now are different actors, same story line. It was one of my favorites that I looked forward to seeing and so was The Family.
I am so upset! I LOVE Game of Silence! It is my favorite show in a very long time! I am going to be so upset if it doesn’t come back. Hopefully they will come to their senses. It’s a shame that all the good shows get canceled and it’s the dumb ones that stay on the air!
Game of Silence is the only show worth watching!! Keep it!!
