Telly’s Take
Will CBS cancel or renew Kevin Can Wait for a third season? Season two started with very good ratings, but they quickly dropped after the premiere. However, this sitcom has remained fairly strong since then. It remains one of the network’s best-rated comedies so I think that it will be renewed for a third season. I’ll keep an eye on the ratings and will update this page from time to time. Subscribe for free updates on any Kevin Can Wait cancellation or renewal news.

What do you think? Should the Kevin Can Wait TV series be cancelled or renewed for season three? Did CBS make the right call, or the wrong one, when they replaced Hayes with Remini?
It’s almost like King of Queens. I think it’s much better having Leah. They’re both funny together as a team. Ending King of Queens was the biggest mistake.
Cancel…Should have never fired Erin. Lost me as a watcher.
Alot of people get fired from their job. It is not something knew, it happens every day! Everyone is makeing such a big deal about her exit where he just reads a peice of mail and makes the comment that she has been gone for a year and that he still misses he. What is soo bad about that!
Kevin Can Wait should be cancelled like his wife was cancelled. Without a tear.
There is not alot of crying in comedies!
You can not cancel this show fast enough. After they killed off the wife to bring back Leah the show just does not work. Monkey fist security?? Really?? If they are trying for a King of Queens re-do they seriously missed the boat
I was hoping the show would get better with Leah, but it is even worse. Cancell

Cancel this show! Kevin screwed up a good show. They could have had Leah cameo more NOT kill off wife. Not that funny anymore.
Last season with Donna I laughed out loud every episode. I can’t crack a smile with the new writing and new, old, partner. This is too bad because it was my favorite show. Now, it can be cancelled.
Why is this crap show still on? This clown is in no way funny.
Please cancel this crap! Replace it with a good show. The show sucked as soon as Erin Hayes was gone! She was the glue. It was a nice family show until the train wreck happened.
I refuse to watch this season. I do not like the idea of a comedy killing off a main character. I loved King of Queens but this isn’t the time for a re-do.
It looks like the end of the show. And James career might be in jeopardy now how they handle this monstrosity.
Far from Jeopardy. He maybe done as far as t.v goes but won’t be for movies beings Adam Sandler produces his own and gets his friends to act in them and Kevin has other connections as well. As far as the show goes if you can’t crack a smile then it’s the creative writers not the actors who made people laugh on other shows.
In this case Kevin doesn’t have talent to over come the writers short coming of creative writing. That problem…..
Kevin doesn’t have ability to act his way out of a simple seen, with looking bad as be does.
The show’s train wreck now. The writing isn’t working: it’s like they don’t care anymore. No chemistry between the stars. Bring Donna back and save the show!
Cancel this piece of crap. it’s about time.
it was boring … donna was the glue that kept the show together.
