The Lockup TV show has been cancelled by MSNBC after 25 seasons. Executive producer Rasha Drachkovitch hopes the series can live on by alternate means. THR reports:
“Because we’ve been leaders in this space, new and exciting opportunities are on the horizon for 44 Blue to continue bringing viewers stories of the extreme human condition,” he said. “We’ve been approached to create content in the same genre that we’ve had such success pioneering, we look forward to telling more stories of life behind bars. Whether it be linear, international, VR or digital – exciting things to come.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of the Lockup TV series. Should Lockup be cancelled or renewed?
I want lock up back it was one thing my family and I could sit down watch and learn from
Im so very sad they want to cancel it or did. I love watching that show. My husbands in prison for a few years and watching lock up makes me understand it alot more and see what he has to go thru. I also feel closer to him watching it as weird as it sounds. I wish i could watch it every single day. I honestly could. I wish it was still on. Id even watch reruns thats how much i love that show. And the staff is down right amazing at what they do. Thank you for giving me… Read more »
My wife and I loved to watch lockup. That was one show on Saturday night that we looked forward to watching.
Hello, Renew it!!! The only show I watched on MSNBC. If it moves to another channel, I will watch it. Great program.
Why would you cancel such a great, great show. I never really cared about any other TV show. I just hope you bring it back quickly. I am sure you know you have a lot of angry fans!!!!!
I want lockup back 100%. I also watched Friday-Sunday, and then we would talk about it at work !! Please find someone that will show it !!
Very disappointed to hear of the cancellation. I watched this show from Friday to Sunday, reruns and all. Bring back the show. It offered a rare real life view into the human condition unparalleled on television.
My favorite thing to do, looked forward to locked up all night, snuggled in bed, looked forward to 11pm, could not just watch one episode, loved doing all night marathons when I’d be somewhere on vacation, especially loved watching the shows to show where they were after being releseased, especially if they have been reformed. Please bring this show back!
Not sure why a show that is so loved and can easily be continued has been cancelled. I live in Ct, a relatively small state yet it has over 20 prisons. From the old tier system to newer, underground supermax prisons. Lockup should do a special on Ct prisons seeing as there are so many. I haven’t read one negative comment about lockup….please renew it.
My favorite show! I planned Saturday night as lockup night and looked forward to it all week. Please bring it back!
Lockup was the ONLY good thing on MSNBC. I truly hope another network is smart enough to pick up this awesome show. I’m sure MSNBC’s ratings are going to suffer (and rightfully so).
I am so very disappointed that this show was canceled !! I looked forward to it on Saturday nights.. Poor choice MSNBC!!
I love Lockup and I am saddened to know that MSNBC has decided to cancel the show. Bring it back!!!
I was sorry to hear of the cancellation, this was one of my favorites. I watched on Friday night and Saturday,and Sunday night so you see i really looked forward every week to watch it.
I love lock up. I think MSNBC made a huge mistake! They should definitely bring it back
Big mistake to cancel by msnbc. Bring it back or I will no longer if I get the channel from my server.
