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?
So upset when I found this out. I looked forward to it every Wednesday wish they would bring it back!!!
I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS SHOW!!! I can’t believe it got the axe! I’m so heartbroken.. maybe NBC should reconsider and bring it back. Alex would not have given up that’s for sure.
Great great show, I would have loved a season two
SO DISAPPOINTED!!!!!! How could you just take it off the air? Best show I have ever watched!!!!
What a tragedy! Another brilliant show axed.
What the hell is going on?
Heartbeat was the best show i have ever seen this was one of the best shows ever I wish they would have come out with a season 2 at the end of season one I was weighting all week to see what happens next I think that the show should go on I loved his show I am so disappointed and a lot of people agree if you read the comments
The show is AWESOME!! Please don’t cancel it! Give it another chance! There is so much crap that stays on when they shouldn’t but NOT this show!! The dynamic is great and adore Melissa George in this role!! I’m shocked and dumbfounded and heartbroken that it didn’t make it! Please give it one more season!
I’m so disapointed to hear that this show was cancelled it was refreshing funny and down to earth I really wish the network would give it another run.
extremely disappointed that this show was cancelled. was so good, casting couldn’t of been better. no reason for it to have been cancelled. very poor decision.
I am disappointed Heartbeat is not renewed. Casting was excellent.
They definitely should have made another season they just left us on with her married to both of them
Dont start a series and cut it off not cool
They should make season two for sure
I totally agree. It’s such a disappointment when they cancel a show and then leave us hanging. St least CBS did the right thing and wrapped up Person of Interest.
It would probably have a lot higher rating if they posted it on Netflix nowadays everyone watches online and illegal. This show is really good and there aren’t that many doctors shows on Netflix other than House, and it’s so unfair that they leave us hanging like that, with that season finale and then cancelling 🙁
I think that NBC’s timing is off. I was a very huge fan of ER, so I’ve been looking forward to a hospital ER type of show. I love Chicago Fire and PD so I tried the Chicago MED series’s and it’s not interesting enough for me so I scratched that. However it wasn’t until Grimm and everything else ended their seasons that I got the chance to see Heartbeat and I love it. Sad to see it end before I even got a chance to watch it because it is actually really interesting. Thus what I stated before NBC’s… Read more »
I’m so mad it won’t be coming back for a season 2. I looked forward to watching this show every week. NBC why are you taking such a good show off the air. 🙁
Love the show!!! So sick of stations getting us into shows then canceling them!!!!
