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?

Harry’s Law show and cast……FANTASTIC!!! ENJOYABLE!!! Certainly hope the show returns!!
Harry’s Law is a great show, Kathy Bates does a fantastic acting job!! If the audience is not watching this show, they are certainly missing one of TV’s finest!! Certainly hope this show returns.
It’s a shame that virtually any show that appeals to the reasonably intelligent and sends a message within its script never survives. If Harry’s Law is cancelled it is just another classic case of the networks acceding to the masses and the inane reality shows that proliferate all the networks. Harry’s Law made statements that meant something. They took on numerous controversial topics aside from the quality of the acting.
Why in the world are they cancelling one of the best shows on tv? It actually has real people with real story lines–not blood and guts or weepy girls trying to find a man. When are the head honcos going to wake up and learn that if they will give a new show a time slot and leave it the hell alone for 13 weeks, people might be able to find it—and WATCH it. I set my dvr to record a series on a certain time and day and lo-and behold–it has moved and I have no clue where!! Please… Read more »
I don’t understand why this show is not doing better. Each episode deals with very debatable topics, and I love to see boths sides argued. They really make you think – maybe that’s why the show isn’t doing well. I sure hope when the show comes back in March, they give it a good time slot and advertise it well.
As usual, let’s cancel a great show. I can’t believe it, this is the best show on tv. Harrys law will be missed by alot of fans.
PLEASE DON’T CANCEL HARRY’S LAW. I have loved this show ever since the very first episode. You can’t listen to the mainstream viewers anymore they’re all addicted to these crappy reality tv shows that have no substance to them. Who cares!! what the Kardashian’s are doing ??? These types of shows are lame there’s nothing to watch on tv anymore because the networks keep cancelling all the good shows.
One of the few shows I watch. Plays into the intellect a little………guess that’s why it has to go……….networks only showcase sex and the stupid
Barb,
I agree that NBC doesn’t play to the intelligent. While Harry’s Law didn’t play into deep intellect, it did spark the mind into entertaining and sometimes controversial episodes. Lame brained Reality TV shows appear to be the going thing.
Please don’t cancel Harry’s Law!!!!!!! I love that show.
Please do not cancel one of the few programs worth watching on TV. Think about cancelling some of the dumb reality shows that are so ridiculous. It takes a little while for the show to be seen and appreciated by the public. Some of started the longest running shows on TV started out slow. PLEASE do not cancel it.
If Harry’s law is cancelled I will be very disappointed! Who makes these decisions anyway? It seems like every time a new show comes on that I really like it gets canceled as soon as I get interested in it. Everyone I talked to loves the show. I think from now on I’ll wait for a while before watching a new show to see if it gets canceled before I get interested in it.
I can’t believe it’s a ratings issue since all the networks have been playing a game of russian roulette with their series’ If you are going to program one New episodes then put in two repeats (from the same season, as well), how are people going to come to identify with the characters. Look at shows like Body of Proof, Harry’s Law, Prime Suspect etc. For goodness sake just put on 13 weeks of episodes and if the ratings are down then cancell and replace with back up. If its good then renew it for another 13 weeks. Voila`, you… Read more »
In my opinion, Harry’s Law is the ONLY thing worth watching. David E. Kelly’s offerings have ALWAYS been top notch and his characters are WONDERFUL!!!!. Please, please, please DO NOT CANCEL THIS SHOW!!!!! I am so sick of stupid reality shows about stupid people looking for fame & fortune when they have absolutely NOTHING TO OFFER, e.g., the Kardashians…yeah, they’re pretty, but why would I ever want to keep up with them and their ****** ways???
Harry’s Law is my whole family’s favorite show. Get rid of Grimm and the other unreal, useless programs
So disappointed not to find my favorite show on the air. I guess I’ll go back to watching the food network. Why did they put this on opposite American Idol.
