We’ve received a few emails from readers asking if Harry’s Law has been cancelled. After all, the last original episode of the Kathy Bates series aired on January 18th.
The legal drama has certainly been struggling in the ratings and is one of the lowest-rated shows on the network this season. But, while it’s hard to imagine that Harry’s Law will be renewed for a third season, the series hasn’t been cancelled just yet. It does have a lot of viewers, just not in the desired demographic unfortunately.
Harry’s Law is on hiatus and won’t return until March 11th, once the February sweeps period has finished. NBC ordered 22 episodes for the current season so there are 10 installments left to air.
Since it’s likely that the show won’t be back, hopefully the cast and crew won’t leave viewers with a cliffhanger in the last episode.
What do you think? Are you still watching Harry’s Law? Do you miss it when it’s not on?

NBC hasnt got a clue as to what shows are good and what shows are not! Harry’s Law is one of the best and NBC needs to look at the ratings closer. It is doing very well on Sundays at 8pm so LEAVE IT ALONE!! NBC has canceled so many great shows that it is very hard to start watching anything they put on TV. They have ruined it for me when they took off Chuck which was one of the most enjoyable programs on TV. Oh well, thank goodness there’s still CBS and ABC who have shows we still… Read more »
I loved the first season of Harry’s Law but when they revamped the set and the cast I had to say good-bye.
Love the show. My absolute favorite. I love Kathy Bates and her role as Harriet. I don’t get to watch much tv but I love this show.
Love the show! Keep it on!
Another good one will bite the dust. Who are these people that determine what goes and what stays. Need to keep something on that most people like to watch. Looks like they need to take this show and put it in another time slot. KEEP IT ON GREAT series to watch
I do not like the reports that NBC is going to cancel Harry’s Law.The show is interesting, filled with an odd assortment of characters, and good story lines. I am really tired of everything on television being slanted to the 18-49 and/or 25-59 age group(s). There are some of us out in the TV viewing public who are older than this and relish seeing something besides the idiot reality TV programs and everything pitched toward 30 somethings. I’m 68 years old and like to see actors like Kathy Bates in character roles!!!
Harry’s Law and its cast are great. The writing and acting is wonderful and there is no reason not to renew this excellent program. You’ve canceled Law & Order, Prime Suspect and so many other good shows, why not leave this one alone.
Is it written somewhere that a show has to be realistic? I hated when Boston Legal ended, but this is an excellent replacement. Good story lines and lots of fun and good humor. All the cast seems to fit the characters they play. It would be a real shame to take this off the air.
I love this show! I just stareted watching the show and I am hooked.
Another great show getting ready to be cancelled by NBC. Kathy Bates is great in the role of Harry, she is one of the best.The show has a great cast and great story lines. What another reality or show in place of Harry’s Law?
Please do not cancel!
I LOVE Harry’s Law. The characters are likable if not always believable. It’s not too violent. It’s not riddled with sex or spiritistic themes. I used to watch NBC most, but now I hardly do. Please don’t take off Harry’s Law.
I loved the show! It just seemed that every time I went to watch it there was something else on in its place.

Harry’s Law is a great show! A great cast with a lot of chemistry and very good stories. I am with most everyone, I liked the first season set up the best and think they should go back down stairs to where it all began. When season two came and they were all upstairs in the fancy offices, it was a shocker and I am sure one thing that hurt the ratings. However the stories were still good and I really love Kathy Bates as Harry. This shows has it all, drama, comedy and a little mystery.
I have loved Harry’s Law since it started. I really like the quirky characters who, in my opinion, give the show it’s spark. I love Kathy Bates in the role of Harry. She is smart, honest, and I think her acting is terrific. She always appears completely engaged in and out of the court room. I hope to see this show renewed. It sure beats another ditsy sit com!!!
I hate to disagree with the other posters, but I quit watching this show after the first two episodes. It was patently ridiculous and I felt the obvious political bias was out of place. Even for an escapist, feel-good show, the characters were unbelievable and, to me at least, unsympathetic.
