Based on the “Walt Longmire” mystery novels by Craig Johnson, Longmire has been a very successful TV series for A&E in the ratings. Will that trend continue? Will the show be cancelled or renewed for a fourth season? Stay tuned!
Longmire follows the life of a Wyoming county sheriff who’s returned to work following his wife’s demise. With the support of his family and co-workers, he solves cases and works to stay in office. The cast includes Robert Taylor, Katee Sackhoff, Bailey Chase, Adam Bartley, Cassidy Freeman, and Lou Diamond Phillips.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings, the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available.

What do you think? Do you like the Longmire TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a fourth season?
I never post on these websites because I think it is a waste of time…but Longmire is an excellent dramatic show….Unfortunately, America has become a society that focuses on those pitiful reality shows…what a comment on society that those women who are famous for being famous…whose name starts with K continue to be on television while excellent programs are cancelled.
This is my hope for the future of Longmire…my hope is that it will be picked up by a network that truly appreciates ten quality of the show. They will give it the backing to produce more episodes per season AND will give it a great lead in show and promotional advertising! Perhaps the best thing to happen to the show and it’s fans is for Longmire to be released by a&e (I will NOT cap those letters) and be allowed to go to a network that will appreciate the talents of ALL the members of the show. Don’t worry… Read more »
NOO!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SHOW, CANT WAIT TIL THE NEXT TIME ITS ON. THE SEASONS SEEM SO SHOR. PLEASE DONT CANCEL THIS SHOW. IF ITS CANCELED, IM THROUGH WITH A&E
It will certainly make things much easier for me if they cancel this show, at they did The Glades. If A&E want to shoot themselves in the foot, they are on the right track. Longmire is the last show they had that I watched, and I will be cancelling A&E from my cable service as soon as I am certain that the show will not be back. I certainly do hope that the show will be picked up by someone, because it is one of the most interesting shows around at this time. This trend to do “unscripted” shows is… Read more »
I am so upset to hear that this show is cancelled! It is one of the only shows I watch on A&E and look forward to it each week during the summer. I agree with the previous posts about the quality of the plot and the acting. Please bring back!
I am so shocked at this cancellation. Longmire has such great complexity in the story line and the characters brought to life by an amazing cast. Great t.v. is hard to come by and now you are cancelling an AMAZING series. What is A & E thinking?? They should have at least gone one more season to tie up some of the story lines. This was a stupid thought by A & E. Hope they do not cancel Bates Motel either.
Longmire is a very wonderful show. I would hate for it to be canceled. Please find another network. I look forward to watching it. i havent missed an episode. And i certainly don’t want to see it end.
Longmire got better with every season. Hope someone picks it up. Reminds me of Friday Night Lights and how it was under appreciated until it was cancelled.
Bad decision on the part of A&E. This is a great series.
What are you thinking!!!!!! This show has all the good things going for it and you think of cancelling it?? Get a grip. It has a gripping story line, good values, excellent cast and has managed to grab my husband’s attention. This is the ONLY series he has watched in the last ten years. DO NOT CANCEL! I will quite probably quit A&E permanently if the only thing left is drivel like reality shows about bigoted swamp people and the like. Some of us appreciate good drama. (And you lovers of the swamp people, I am entitled to my opinion,… Read more »
One of the best shows on television. I agree with other comments…….it had a real story line and wasn’t a stupid “reality” show. A&E continues to slide into irrelevance. I remember when they had real shows. Very frustrated.
Oh no!!!!! Longmire is a great show and we are so distressed to learn that it has been cancelled. Please tell me how shows like Housewives of LA, or crazy zombie nonsense stays on while a show that has a plot gets cancelled!!!! And how will we find out what happened to Branch? ARGH!
Great show, yet another failure by A&E’s decision makers.
What are you people stupid ? The show had a good story line ,it was well acted and most important the charactor were believable. You really need to reconssit . Or do you another housewifes of ******** show you want to put on!!!
I love this show. It’s family oriented, suspenseful and the acting is superb. Please do not cancel this show. Please, please, please. Thank you.
