In case you haven’t heard, TNT has cancelled HawthoRNe after three seasons on the air. The medical drama ran for 30 episodes total, from June 2009 until August 2011. HawthoRNe’s ratings started out strong but dipped each season. It was the lowest-rated drama on TNT this summer except for Men of a Certain Age, a drama that was cancelled after two seasons on the air.
Series star Jada Pinkett Smith broke the news to her fans by writing, “Hey everyone…if you don’t know Hawthorne will not be returning for another season. I want to say thank you to all the fans for being Hawthorne soldiers. All our facebook fans…twitter soldiers and viewers…you held us down. Of course you know there is more to come…believe it!”
Following a steamy scene between Smith and costar Marc Anthony, there were rumors that the two were having an affair. Supposedly, she and her husband, Will Smith, were also splitting up. The Smiths issued a statement last week that addressed the rumors, “Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false. We are still together, and our marriage is intact.”
Vanessa Lengies (CNO Kelly Epson) sympathized with HawthoRNe fans who were sad about the show’s demise and tweeted, “Loyal HawthoRNe followers, u know if it was up 2 me I would play Kelly 4 you til you asked me 2 stop.” She also posted a few backstage photos of herself and the cast.
Aisha Hinds (Isabel Walsh) was upset by the cancellation news and wrote, “:-( Boooo!!! Love my HawthoRNe Family!”
What do you think? Are sorry to see the TV series end? Could HawthoRNe have been saved?

SHOWA THEY NEED TO CANCEL THEY DON’T SOME THEY DON’T GIVE A CHANCE FOR BUT, ARE REALLY GOOD SORRY I was one but, as I watch the show each episode got better and gave it a chance & liked it but I think it was because of that MARC ANTHONY scene and what came behind it afterwards & concluding to this marriage problems
I would like to see one final show to wrap things up. Will Nick live? Will Tom & Christina work things out?
I can’t believe they cancelled the show!!!! It was great and I looked forward to it every season. I think the ratings would have been better if it were advertised better. I don’t know but I think TNT made a big mistake on this one. The fans need to get behind the show and let them know how we really feel. There are so many shows out there that I WON’T watch and the kill one of the few I enjoyed. Oh well TNT I guess you just lost one more viewer…
Boo! Not even a finale? Really? Really?
Veryyy Saddd. I enjoyed watching the drama surrounding Jada’s life and coming into knowing herself. I looked forward to every Tuesday night. TNT lost a very loyal viewer.
Please someone save Hawthorne. Fans write in and protest Hawthorne being canceled. If enough people protest, maybe we can keep.Hawthorne on the air.
I was totally disappointed in the Cancellation!!!!! It was going to turn around, and finally Christine would find a long time relationship as she helped Nick heal from his wounds and feel needed and loved!!!
Even though the ratings were low, It would be nice if the Company gave it one last try, and bring the old Christine back and have her be the head of the hospital fighting all the battles that will be all inspiring for the patients and crew around her.
I am very disappointed to find out that this wonderful show has been canceled. I really enjoyed it, the cast was incredible!!! I wish that the network would change their minds and really continue to show it for many seasons more or if there is another network that would be willing to pick it up would be awesome!!!
I have loved Jaka Pinkett Smith for years, but I knew this show was in trouble early when her character was judge, savior, micro-manager, everything to all people. It was too much. This last season was all over the place. Terrible story line, just bad, an insult to viewers’ intelligence.
Could they not even bring the show back for one final episode to wrap up the shooting of Marc Anthony? This has left us loyal viewers in a quandry. Who shot him? Did he shoot himself? Is he dead?
I hope another network will air Hawthorne. This is my favorite weekly program!!! TNT needs their head examined.
I will seriously miss Hawthorne. It was the only show I was loyal to every week. I seriously don’t know what to do on Tuesdays now.
I really loved the show and couldn’t believe it was cancelled.
I thought this last season was the best…how could ratings been so low!!!
Please bring the show back. It was wonderful! I loved the characters and how they were portrayed. This real was a real good show and I think many people could relate to the stories lines. Bring it back!!!!!!
I’m so hurt that TNT has councled this great show and what a way to end it hoe are we as fans of this show going to know what happen with Tom and Christine I would love to see them back together. Any way Good Luck to the crew I’ll miss you.
