What’s in store for the series finale of Life in Pieces? Recently, creator Justin Adler spoke with TVInsider about the end of the CBS TV show.
The family sitcom, which is currently in its fourth and final season, 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. The cast includes 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.
In the interview, Adler revealed the upcoming Life in Pieces series finale was “never designed as a series finale.” So what can fans expect from the end of the CBS TV show?
Adler says a job opportunity for Matt (Sadoski) will test his relationship with Colleen (Cabral):
Just as he finally has a family, a dream job threatens to separate him from those he loves most. It felt real to us.”
The series finale of Life in Pieces debuts on CBS tonight, June 27th, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
What do you think? Do you watch Life in Pieces? Would you have watched a fifth season?
Damn! Another great sitcom canceled. There aren’t very many good ones out there. Especially on network television. Yet another reason to go to Netflix. I really enjoy Life In Pieces too.
This has been a life saver during covid! We discovered this on Amazon Prime and have literally laughed out loud! This cast is truly amazing….especially James Brolin and Dianne Wiest. They are hysterically funny as is Dan Bakkedahl. The episode with Tim having an ” episode” in the box made us cry! The children on this cast are excellent as well….never annoying. This ENTIRE cast are naturals. We thank the wonderful writers, directors, producers, and of course this awesome cast whom have all brought these relatable family stories to life. This show is golden, and we thank everyone involved with… Read more »

Please bring back Life in Pieces”. Such a funny and charming series. All the characters are so well developed and fabulous in their roles.
It really just ended with Season 4 chapter 13? Matt moves to Germany and everyone else just lives on the curb? Pretty lame!
We loved this series! So sad they ended it! Just got 3 other family members watching it! Bring it back!
I loved life in pieces! I thought it was funnier than modern family! Bring it back!!!!
Why did I never hear about this when it was still on CBS? I heard about it from a friend and started watching it on Amazon. What a shock when we got to the last episode and it JUST ENDED. The show is so good! It’s very well written and the cast is terrific. Someone please pick this up and continue this story!
Ugh. I’m so disappointed. This was such a fantastic show – and now there’s no closure! It was so well written… my favorite was Jen! Come on Netflix, pick this one up!
I agree, one of the best sitcoms on TV, LET US ALL HOPE NETFLIX comes in for a rescue. CBS failed to find the winning time slot. this show is one of the few that has a great cast and writing.
Such a great show and so disappointing that it ended in such an abrupt way.
You truly need to bring back Life in Pieces. It is the best show.
Stunned to hear show canceled!!!! What a shame…greatest writing and cast.
THe writers and powers to be made a huge mistake shutting down this amazing show. What a huge mistake! Please bring it back!!!!!!!!!
