CBS is throwing in the towel on the Life in Pieces TV show. The network has cancelled the show so there won’t be a fifth season.
A dramedy, Life In Pieces stars Dianne Wiest, James Brolin, Zoe Lister-Jones, Colin Hanks, Angelique Cabral, Thomas Sadoski, Betsy Brandt, Dan Bakkedahl, Niall Cunningham, Holly J. Barrett, Giselle Eisenberg, and Hunter King. The series follows four branches of the Short family tree. Although they’re a big happy clan, that doesn’t mean there are no awkward moments amidst their funny and moving milestones. Each episode unfolds as four short stories which, when woven together, tell one story about this thing called life.
The fourth season of Life in Pieces is averaging a 0.84 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 5.75 million viewers. Compared to season three, that’s down by 24% and 11%, respectively. Five episodes of the 13 installment season have aired thus far.
Out of the 26 scripted CBS TV shows of the 2018-19 season, Life in Pieces is in 13th place in the demo and 16th place in total viewership.
What do you think? Do you enjoy the Life in Pieces TV show? Are you sorry that it’s been cancelled? Would you have watched a fifth season?
I think u r crazy to cancel this show.
Please don’t cancel!! Best cast ever. They all fit perfectly!!
One of the few classy ,funny ,great actors and well written shows still left on TV ! Maybe a new night , this is truly a shame ….!!!!!
Hate to see this show cancelled – it was funny and enjoyable. Do networks even care that there are plenty of viewers in the demographics outside of 18-49 yrs??
This is a great show. The writing is quirky and funny and the actors are all pretty dang amazing. Please someone for the love of god pick it up again. ABC needs a replacement for Modern Family, right?
Please do not cancel this show. It’s funny, the actors are first-rate, and I look forward to it every week. It is so true-to-life and not a stupid comedy like many of the others in TV these days. What a shame!
Was pretty sad to hear about it’s cancellation, then started watching this season the other day and gotta say Good Call Ya’ll. The storylines this season have taken a complete swan dive straight into the asphalt. Very disappointed with the use of Sam’s character as a whole as after four seasons she’s still getting next to zero scene time in 75% of episodes.
One of our favorite shows and so disappointed it has been cancekked. Puts a funny light on our every day lives. Please, see if you can bring it back
We loved Life in Pieces and have watched it from the beginning. I really looked forward to it every week! Why didn’t you cancel Mom instead?
Just a consistently funny show. That’s tough to do with so many actors and only. 30 minutes. But, hits a home run every time. A real shame to hear it’s been cancelled.
Sorry to hear this show was cancelled. Really looked forward to watching it. Can’t believe it didn’t return until April 2019.
We look forward to watching Life in Pieces, it’s a good funny show, please don’t cancel
We love this show, it is a well written comedy. The cast is excellent. There are many JUNK shows on TV. Life in Pieces is not one of them. Please do not cancel.
Look forward to Life In Pieces every week. Enjoy the family fynamics and character development. Many very funny, laugh out loud moments. So sad to hear it’s cancelled
My husband and I love this show! It’s hilariously funny. It’s the BEST show. Do NOT make the mistake of canceling it. Seriously it’s so freakin funny. Please don’t cancel Life in Pieces! It’s so cool how they get a family with each perspective of the same day or story. There is nothing like it!
