Last season Hart of Dixie was almost cancelled due to low ratings. The network renewed it, likely with the expectation that the audience would grow. Will more people watch this season? We’ll have to wait and see.
The second season of Hart of Dixie typically airs on Tuesday nights on The CW network. The cast includes Rachel Bilson, Cress Williams, Jaime King, Scott Porter, and Wilson Bethel.
Here are the TV show’s ratings for the 2012-13 season, the best way to tell if Hart of Dixie is going to be cancelled or renewed for season three.

What do you think? Do you still like the Hart of Dixie TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
It was just on a whim when I started watching the show on Netflix. That was a week ago and now I’m completely addicted. I really hope it doesn’t get canceled, Wade Kinsella it’s too hot to cancel!!
Hart of Dixie is one of those shows that once I start watching it, I am hooked, but I forget about it in the meantime. I loved it until the end of season 1, when all season they lead up to George and Zoe finally being together, and then basically dumped the whole storyline, which was disappointing.
i dont know. I guess for the viewers that like the show, they like the fact that there isnt much depth to the story lines, but for viewers like myself i dont care whos running for mayor for a whole episode against another character that has no storyline background and showed up one episode ago. Whats going to keep viewers wanting to return next week? Thats what they need to base their story lines around cause right now this show is easy to forget to watch
great relaxing tv show, please please don’t canclr it. latelh there are no much shows where somebody didn’t kill someone , let’s keep this one
Stumbled across this show on Netflix and sailed through all the episodes. I hope it doesn’t get canceled! Crossing my fingers!

Hart of Dixie was good up to the point where George found out about Lemon’s affair and Zoe slept with Wade. From that point on, Zoe forgot that she graduated on the top 10% of her class, her dreams about being a heart surgeon, to become a sex maniac and slave of Wade, in a little town where there is only two guys available for dating. Her behavior is like of a wild 15 years-old. George is now pictured as insecure, sometimes confused and a little idiot. Wade who ,before Zoe coming to town, was preparing himself to replace his… Read more »
Hart of Dixie is a GREAT little show…there are really no weaknesses in the cast or the writing or anything….the only problem is that they put it on at the same time…I think…as NCIS, which has always had ratings through the roof….it is a shame to see Hart of Dixie hurt by just putting it in the wrong timeslot….
totally agree
I started watching Hart of Dixie like a month ago… and I love it…i watched the 1st season like in 3 days…so far i love season 2!!! The Vampire Diaries, Nikita & Hart of Dixie are my favorite shows…I hope they don’t get cancelled!!!
I love Hart of Dixie. It’s one of the few shows on the network that actually has adults that we haven’t been watching since high school. Rachel Bilson is great and always makes me laugh. I’m excited to see Lemon grow and become a bigger character.
This last episode was a little vanilla. I need a little more excitment without going all 90210 or OTH crazy.
I love Hart of Dixie. It’s such a fun show, with a very talented and very adorable cast. I bought the season DVD set and loving Season 2.
I love the southern charm of this show and wish it were more popular. I’ve even bought online some of the episodes that I missed last season.

Why ask that anyway? It was given to her anyway. She needs something to do. She don’t care if don’t come back. It should end with her hooking up with one the guys. She really don’t like working on it anyway
