Heartbeat has officially flat-lined. Variety reports NBC has cancelled the medical drama after one season.
The series centers on Dr. Alex Panttiere (Melissa George), a cardio-thoracic surgeon trying to juggle her personal and professional life. Dave Annable, Don Hany, Joshua Leonard, Jamie Kennedy, D.L. Hughley, Shelley Conn, Maya Erskine, and J. Louis Mills also star.
Nearing the end of its first season, Heartbeat has continued to fall in the ratings. The series began strong, receiving a 1.39 in the 18-49 demo and 6.304 million viewers for its March premiere. However, the show is currently averaging only .85 in the 18-49 demo, with 4.631 million viewers.
The season one, and now series, finale airs on May 25th.
What do you think? Do you watch Heartbeat? Do you think it should’ve been renewed?
What a predictable mistake NBC makes again! A unique take on healthcare with some ‘heart’ and great character development potential. Congrats NBC, you’ve done it again.
Oh please reconsider this decision!!! I might not be on the 18-49 year category, but I really enjoy this show too.
previous post had auto correct oversight… Nicholas actually. NBC
It seams that Nicholas rather famous for this. It was a very good show. It showed how things could be a juggling act for high profile careers. This is why I will NOT watch. “new series ” from NBC until it’s gone 3 sessions. Then I catch up on Netflix or another way and then start watching again. One season is NOT an indicator..I would like to know the age groups of these.” testers “.
This is one of the best shows on TV. It actually leaves you feeling happy at the end. Please change your mind.
NBC made a HUGE mistake in cancelling their new show Heartbeat! It’s a great show and has humor. Chicago Med and Night Shift are good but very serious whereas Heartbeat is serious but yet has some humor in it. They should really reconsider in bringing it back for another season. If not I hope it gets picked up by another network! Sad to see it go and the finale was great but not happy in the least with how they ended it!
So very sad. I love Heartbeat…the drama, the medical “goo”, the quirkiness of an atypical family dynamic, humor from odd duck hospital stuff, and a looove triangle. What’s not to love???
Of course because I liked it a lot, it got canceled.!!! Grrrrr. It’s a great show!!! PLEASE Dont let it GO!!!! So tired of al, the stupid reality shows getting all the love and money! Who cares about season 100 of the bachelor or bachelorette? I mean really!
Just started watching Heartbeat and now it’seems cancelled. Great show. Bad mistake.
I can’t believe they canceled the show. My all-time new favorite show a great mix of drama comedy reality great actors great cast !
