My husband and I loved watching Lockup. I hope that it finds a new home on another channel soon.
Please continue this interesting show. It is sad to see it go.
It’s sad lock up is still a great show
One of my favorite shows please pick it back up!!!
I vote that this show continue. I hope that it continues on another network if possible.
No, don’t cancel this show! Everyone I know watches it. I love it so much I watch the reruns over and over.

Great show. Short a real depiction of what prison life was like. It also showed what the families went through while visiting their loved ones. Furthermore, it showed the damage to the victims families as well. I hope this show will return soon.
