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?
I love Heartbeat. I wish they would give it more of a shot too–hope another network picks it up. This was definitely a one-of-a-king medical show, and I loved it.
I looked forward to this show and am very sorry it was cancelled. Hope another network picks show up. There may be too many medical shows on now, but this was one of kind with a different field.
I hope USA or AMC or some other network pick the show up
Loved this show and I’m very upset it was cancelled! Lots of other junk on TV that could have been axed…

I’m so disappointed. GREAT show! I looked forward to every episode. Cancel Nightshift, not Heartbeat. I loved Heartbeat. It was intelligent, sexy, comical and dramatic.
What a shame. I really enjoyed this show. I never missed an episode. It was light and serious at the same time. Thanks again NBC for leaving us twisting in the wind with no wrap up. Maybe I should just stop watch NBC altogether. Night Shift is the show that should’ve been cancelled. I’ll hold out hope that maybe another network will pick up the show.
I’m disappointed, I watched it and enjoyed it a lot. I liked the characters and the storyline, it was serious and sort of comical. I watch The Nightshift and like Heartbeat more.
its a shame it was cancel loved the show
they should not have brought back night shift which i dont like
please bring back heartbeat will like to see who she ends up with why is it that all the good shows get cancel who cares about the ratings
We watch Chicago Med too and LOVE this show! So sad that we won’t get to see what happens next… Disappointing. Maybe another network will pick it up 🙁
So disappointed it was cancelled such a great show
I really liked it and am upset that they cancelled it!
