Telly’s Take
The fourth season premiered with much lower numbers than last year and the averages are also lower. However, The Librarians is still doing pretty well when compared to the other TNT original series. I’d usually predict another renewal, but TNT has been repositioning itself as an edgier network, and I’m not quite sure The Librarians is still a good fit.

What do you think? Do you hope The Librarians TV show will be renewed for season five? How would you feel if TNT cancelled this TV series, instead?
I really enjoy this show. It has clean action, no profanity, good script and because it involves the magical “library “ there is no limit to the imagination for show ideas. Please keep it going
I really do like The Librarians. The movies were awesome, the character development solid and the adventures are compatible to Dr. Who. Here’s hoping for another season!
Love The Librarians!!!!!!!
My husband and me love this show. It is breath of fresh air compared to all the police dramas and “reality tv” shows. I am so hoping the powers that be renew this for Season 5.
Please do not cancel The Librarians. It is such a good show with incredible imagination.
My kids and I love this show….we expect more seasons, is super fun.
Please, PLEASE renew The Librarians! There are not very many shows left on television that are entertaining and not vulgar and are purely enjoyable to watch.
Please, please, please renew The Librarians!!!! There are not many shows left on television that are entertaining, not vulgar and are purely enjoyable!!!! Be smart TNT!!!
Renew please. We love this show.
I would like to see it continue it’s a good show that the whole family can watch. No sex or gun violence and I appreciate that.
I love this show. It makes you think ahead about what they could possibly be thinking to get out of the situation.
Leverage. The Librarians. For both, I’d wish they’d go on forever. But, if they don’t, that they get a successor like The Librarians was for Leverage.
Maybe it’ll even be alliterated too!
I love the librarians, an awesome ending to season for I look forward to seeing more of the librarians. Every Wednesday at 5 I look forward to seeing the only show that I really care to see on TV. please do not cut it off
Both TNT and USA should stop with the “edgier” series… bring back the ones they refer to as Blue Sky shows (you know the ones you actually want to watch where you like the cast and it doesn’t rely on violence and swearing…). We love the Librarians and everyone on it… keep it on for as long as possible and for as many episodes as possible.
I love this show
