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 was so disappointed that their was no second season. It was a really good show. Keep trying at least keep going to see if the second season will take off. NBC needs a challenge to continue things and not be Quitters!!!
Such a great show why was it cancelled. Whats wrong with you people. Bring it back.
Miss the show, sorry to hear it was cancelled.
Beyond heartbroken that this show has been cancelled.. this show really touched me i can’t accept that it’s over.. please bring it back.. this show was not meant to be cancelled
Nooooo! I was so looking forward to season 2 !
Such a pity it was cancelled after the first season. I enjoyed the fresh approach that was brought to the medical drama without it being too serious. Damn 🙁
We went looking for when the new episodes were going to air. We were so disappointed to find that this show was canceled. I agree with so many of the previous comments; network doesn’t give new shows enough time to allow word of mouth (friend tells friend, who tells another friend, and so on and so on) to build a loyal following; this show has great dynamics with enough story lines to keep it interesting without becoming confusing; loved the role reversals and especially enjoyed the irreverent attitudes of the female lead.

Do away with Chicago Med that is boring. Was ED nurse. Want Heartbeat back
Bring it back!!! Give up so soon, I will quit watching channel for good. So many of my friends love it.
Saddened to learn this show was not picked up. I am a nurse so I don’t particularly like to watch “work” on my downtime but this show was great. Nice to see a strong female lead and the passion she had for her pt’s. Also loved the dynamics of the men in her life. BRING IT BACK NBC!
Shocked this wasn’t getting a second season! I quit watching Grey’s Anatomy a long time ago and couldnt stand watching the “other” medical shows UNTIL Heartbeat!!! So sad and disappointed.
My family and I are. Dry disappointed no season 2. Loved the new show
This is a real disappointment!! Love this show and was looking forward to new episodes. Heartbeat and Madame Secretary, my 2 favorites.
You have to be kidding me? One of the best and most interesting programs out there. Looked forward to the continuation of it every week. Maybe the person whom axed it should be replaced.
Seriously! Another great show down the drain, I think you guys made a mistake letting this one go.
This is wrong this show was session awesome and I mean awsome….please bring it back its better then Chicago med your making a mistake
